It's easy to quit smoking, I've done it hundreds of times!?
|
How many times have you heard that comment by others, or even yourself?
You have probably joked about it on countless occasions.
Unfortunately, long after the false joviality, cigarette addiction remains.
You really have to take a fresh look at the problem of cigarette addiction.
Smoking has an injurious effect on almost all body parts. We know it affects your lungs most adversely and even the most addicted smokers know the risk of cancer.
But, there are more adverse consequences you may or may not be aware of.
Do you know that smoking adversely affect your entire body - from your head to your toes. Here are some of the parts of your body adversely affected by smoking:
Hair - Smoking weakens the immune system which allows damage to the hair roots. The result is premature hair loss.
Brain - Thinking and remembering might be affected. Also circulation of the blood to the brain can be cut off due to a clog or a blood clot, resulting in a stroke.
Eyes - Smokers have twice the risk of developing cataracts in their eyes than do non-smokers. Cataract can be brought about by the constant irritation of the eye by tobacco smoke; or as a result of the many chemicals that travel through the lungs, bloodstream and to the eyes. Smoking can also lead to premature loss of the ability to see in fine details and to differentiate colours (macular degeneration).
Nose - Twice as likely to get cancer of the nose
Skin - Smoking leads to various skin diseases like psoriasis, eczema and wrinkling. Psoriasis is a non-contagious condition of the skin that leaves itchy and red patches all over the body. The chemicals in tobacco overcome the skin's ability to repair itself leading to a dry, leathery complexion and tiny etched lines around the lips and eyes. One then looks older than their actual age. Tobacco smoking is known to be one of the causes of cancer of the skin. The many chemicals irritate the cells in the skin and result in a wound that does not heal.
Teeth - Smoking interferes with the mouth's chemistry resulting in tooth decay, bad breathe, discolouring of teeth and difficulty in healing in the mouth. It also leads to cancers of the mouth and tongue.
Mouth and Throat - Ears - Smoking damages the ear by reducing the flow of blood to it. Tobacco smoke also injures the surfaces of the ear directly allowing them to get infected more easily. Infection can spread to the brain leading to meningitis. Reduced blood flow and infection leads to hearing loss.
Hands - The tar in cigarette smoke collects on the fingers and nails staining them yellowish brown. The skin on these fingers become hard and rough due to the constant exposure to heat and chemicals in tobacco smoke.
Esophagus - Tobacco smoking increases the risk of oesophagus cancer (squamous-cell carcinoma and adenocarcinoma).
Respiration and Lungs - Smoking is directly responsible for the majority of lung cancer cases (87 percent), emphysema cases, and chronic bronchitis cases
Cardiovascular System - Smoking is one of the leading risk factors for heart disease. It makes the heart beat faster, raises blood pressure, increase the risk of clogged arteries and eventually causes heart attack and stroke. One out of every three deaths in the world is due to heart diseases and kills over 1 million people in developing countries
Liver - It has been established that smoking does indeed increase the risk of liver cancer.
Abdomen - Smoking reduces the stomach's ability to protect its walls from damage by acids and enzymes that digest food. Smokers' ulcers are therefore harder to treat and more likely to recur. Smoking can harm other parts of the digestive system as well, contributing to such common disorders as heartburn and peptic ulcers. Smoking increases the risk of Crohn's disease
Kidneys and bladder - Smoking increases the risk of gallstones, 5 times risk of getting cancer of the pancreas and three times risk of getting cancer of the bladder.
Male reproductive system - Smoking reduces the blood flow to the penis resulting in impotence. The chemicals also damage sperms leading to babies born with birth defects and even miscarriages.
Female reproductive system - Smoking can affect your reproductive system even when you're not having a baby. The two most serious effects of smoking on the reproductive system are earlier menopause and an increased risk of two types of cancer of the reproductive organs: cervical cancer and vulvar cancer.
Bones - Tobacco smoke leads to lighter and weaker bones in the body. This is because the chemicals in tobacco do not allow enough calcium to be laid down in bones. A smokers bones therefore lose density, fracture more easily and take up to 80% longer time to heal.
Blood - Nicotine results in blood vessels being constricted and causes the body to release its stores of fat and cholesterol into the blood. Carbon monoxide from tobacco smoke literally poisons the oxygen carrying capacity of the blood.
Immune System - Smoking affects both your antibodies (a group of chemicals that circulate in the blood stream) and your cells that attack foreign substances.
Legs and Feet - Buerger's disease - is a condition where blood vessels get blocked and then cut off blood flow to certain parts of the body. The chemicals in tobacco smoke irritate these blood vessels and the affected areas of the body are literally starved to death! This leads to amputation of the affected areas most common are legs and hands.
Isn't it pretty scary? It is to me.
How important to your health and well being would it be to uncover some of the hidden effects of smoking?
"Freedom From Smoking" details what the exact impact is on all the organs listed above and that information serves as a real wake up call!
The truth is, there is no "pet" answer to this epidemic problem. The reasons for starting the habit are as wide and diversified as the people who smoke. It stands to reason, therefore, that the reasons to quit are equally diverse.
That is why there is no finite, one size fits all cure! What works for one person may not for another. There are even methods that you probably have never heard of. I hadn't, until I read "Freedom From Smoking!"
What makes this guide different from so many of the "self-help" programs out there, is that Patricia covers all the symptoms and the methodologies for treatment, and she does so in a totally un-biased, non-judgmental manner.
Rather than the normal clinical "harangue," her information is clear, concise and understandable. She explores in depth, each of the many treatments that are available, providing the pros, cons and warnings associated with each one of them.
You will be amazed to discover so many diverse treatment options.

More and more people are now becoming aware of the health risks of smoking.
This has made the need to find efficient smoking cessation plans more imperative than ever.
There is nothing as important to stopping smoking than a clear-cut decision to quit. Regardless of the reasons you had for doing so, if you have already made the vital decision to quit smoking then well done to you! If you haven’t made a decision or have doubts that you can really do it, arm yourself with the dry facts in this book and then talk yourself into it. Convince yourself that you really do need to stop the habit. Deep down you know it is the right course of action.
Those who do decide to be non-smokers will be a part of millions of health conscious people who have given up tobacco and have decided to stick to this new lifestyle change forever. They will live longer and have a better quality of life.
Smoking is the number one preventable cause of death in the United States. Cigarettes kill more people in this country than do the car accidents, AIDS, alcohol, suicide, homicide, and illicit drugs all taken together. Sadly, many people who have become aware of the reasons to quit smoking and made up their mind, did so too late and are left with some permanent damage such as emphysema.
Reports suggest that around 46.2 million people in the US currently smoke. This is 22.8% of the entire adult population - almost one in every four people. If they continue to smoke, they are likely to become a victim of the atrocious effects of tobacco and probably succumb to lung, throat or mouth cancer, the most deadly consequences of smoking. Thus, by quitting smoking, you can drastically reduce the propensity to get cancer and will certainly live a lot healthier and longer life.
The world can be just as healthy as the people in it can. Moreover, as we yearn for the betterment of this world, it is the responsibility of every one of us to strive to improve ourselves on an individual basis.
Quitting smoking will not only cut back the burden of various dreadful tobacco-associated diseases and perk up public health, but will save millions of dollars spent in health care on all these diseases. Smoking prevents athletes from giving their top performance owing to breathlessness. If they quit smoking, they will excel. It is not only athletes, but in every field, whether it is technology, medicine, architecture … a healthier person can certainly do much better. We can do a lot to make this world a better place to live in just by quitting smoking.
Quitting smoking may not be easy, at least for many people. Nicotine is a tough chemical to give up.
Nevertheless, do not dishearten, about 44 million people in US have already given up smoking for good. The challenge that many people face is how to quit smoking. For that, approaching a professional addiction specialist company is the finest way of putting yourself on the right track to a healthier, smoke-free life!
