Quit Smoking- One step towards Healthy Life.

 It is no secret that one of the main causes of preventable death and disability around the world is smoking. Each cigarette that a person takes causes the introduction of harmful chemicals into the body that adversely impacts almost all parts of the body, as well as seriously decreasing the life expectancy of the smoker. Quitting smoking is one of the best choices that you would make about your health, finances and general well being, regardless of the time that you have been smoking. 

 Why quit? Health Benefits: 

 Short-term Benefits: Within a period of 20 minutes of stopping, heart rate and blood pressure are corrected. Long-Term Benefits: Heart disease is reduced by half a year later. Ten years onwards, the chances of lung cancer are reduced dramatically. 


 Improved Respiratory Health: When you quit, the result is less coughing, shortness of breath, and a better functioning of lungs. 

 A healthier innate immune system: The body learns to combat infections and heal wounds a lot better. Mental & Emotional Health: Decreased levels of stress and anxiety (post first withdrawal stage). Better feeling of authority and achievement. Improved mood and brainpower. 

 Financial Savings: Smoking is costly. The savings on quitting are hundreds, or thousands of pounds a year. Lowered the medical expenses and insurance fee in the long run. 

 Safety to Family: Second hand smoking is highly disastrous particularly to the young and the aged. By quitting, one will have a healthier home. 

 How to Quit Smoking Put a Quit Date: Decide on a particular date to stop and be ready at least mentally and physically. Figure out what trips the triggers to smoke (stress, social situations, boredom) and replace these. 

 Make Use of Support Systems: Discuss Nicotine replacement therapy patches, gum, lozenges with your doctor. Prescription drugs (under supervision) taken such as varenicline or bupropion. Withdrawal and Craving What to Expect: Irritability, headaches, cravings, and mood swings are frequent during the first weeks or days. Such symptoms resolve with time and abate. 

 How to Cope: Stay hydrated. Do aerobic exercise to get rid of endorphins. Do mindfulness or deep breathing. Talk to a buddy or a counselor.
