In general people who smoke cigarettes weigh less than people who do not smoke. Some experts say this is because nicotine (尼古丁) in cigarettes helps make the body burn food energy more quickly. Scientists said their study showed that people who stop smoking generally return to the weight of people who never smoked.
In the new report, government researchers examined two health studies done in the early 1970s and 1980s. The nationwide studies involved 9,000 people. The researchers found that in general people who stop smoking gain 2-3 kilograms in the next 5 years. Also about one in ten people who stop smoking will gain 13 kilograms or more.
The study found that blacks are much more likely than whites to gain weight after they stop smoking. Also people who stop smoking continue to gain weight at a fast rate than smokers for at least seven years after they stop.
In a separate report, the New England Journal of Medicine said the likelihood of weight gain is not a good reason to continue smoking. It said cigarette smoking has been linked to lung cancer, heart attacks and other health problems. Studies have shown that cigarette smoking kills 400,000 Americans a year. Scientists said these health dangers are far greater than the problems caused by a few extra kilograms of weight.
