    A Number of devices are available to help in the effort to quit smoking. Nicotine patches aresmall, nicotine-containing adhesive substances that are applied to the skin. The nicotine is slowlyabsorbed through the skin and enters the blood stream. Over time, the nicotine dose is lessenedand eventually the craving for nicotine is alleviated. Nicotine gum works in a similar manner,providing small doses of nicotine when chewed.

    The benefits of smoking cessation include the immediate reduction of health hazards for thesmoker, lower health insurance premiums, and easier admission to social activities and institutionsthat ban smoking.

    When we buy canned or bottled food products at the grocers or the supermarket, we will find

    out that there are some additives added to the main nutrients. An additive is a nonnutritivesubstance intentionally added to food, generally in small quantities, to improve appearance, flavour,storage properties, etc.

    A group of food additives includes vitamins, amino acids, and minerals, which are added tofoodstuffs to compensate for losses occurring during processing or to provide additional sources indiets that might otherwise be deficient in such nutrients. Examples of their use include enrichmentof margarine with the addition of vitamin A, and niacinamide to flour or bread. Salt often has a smallamount of iodine added to it to avoid a diet deficiency that can cause goiter development.

    Appearance is an important factor in food appeal, and legislation in most countries permitsthe addition of both natural and synthetic colouring matter based on the colouring standards issuedby the Food and Agricultural Organization (FAO) and World Health Organization (WHO).

    Flavouring materials are added to basic foodstuffs to provide a characteristic product flavour

    or to supplement or modify the original flavour. Most flavouring materials are still of natural origin,but progress in organic chemistry has made it possible to analyze flavouring materials and tosynthesize products similar with those found in nature. Flavour can also be influenced by theaddition of flavour enhancer as monosodium glutamate, which intensifies perception of flavouring.
