Why should we, in fact, stop smoking?
By Ken wilson
The world is filled with folks who think that the power of your will is enough to make you stop smoking. Of course, this deep-thinking attitude comprising so much wisdom can only come from non-smokers. But for smokers, who have tired to quit smoking so many times only to fail over and over again, it is clear that they need all the help they can get because their problem's solution doesn't lie simply with will or desire.
Anyone knows that smoking is not good for us and for those around us. All smokers should at least be aware of the fact that they are addictive to or passionate with a habit that produces pain, suffering and, ultimately, premature death. They all should feel responsible for intoxicating innocent people around them with secondhand smoke. And this is not fair at all. Non-smokers should not be forced to breathe other people's smoke. There are more than necessary fabrics and cars pumping toxic smoke and gases in the air we all breathe, and that should be more than enough.
Authorities bring their own official contribution to the global stop smoking attempt. Higher prices for cigarettes and alcohol have been established and forced on the market. Special places have been created for smokers to puff nicotine so that not to force non-smokers to inhale secondhand smoke. Today, more like never, authorities intensified their efforts to determine people quit smoking in public places covering workplaces, schools, and hospitals. Quite soon, countries like France will subject even restaurants, bars, nightclubs and casinos to such stop smoking regulations.
World Health Organization makes public terrifying press releases when announcing the number of deaths caused smoking every year. US Center for Disease Control (CDC) Statistics show that a skyrocketing figure of 46.2 million adults smoke cigarettes only in the US. Most of them will die from tobacco-related diseases. Cigarettes smoke produces disabilities like cancer, cardiovascular diseases, and respiratory diseases and can even negatively affect your musculoskeletal system. Moreover, the sad fact is that many infants die simply because their mother did not quit smoking during pregnancy and shortly after.
There is one comforting hope to fight back all these figures: you can always choose to stop smoking. And once you quit smoking, the human body can start healing any damage caused by tobacco and smoke inhaling. Many smokers are surprised to hear and more than often, they refuse to believe that only one year after you quit smoking, the risk of a heart attack or sudden death caused by smoking is reduced by 50 per cent. Male smokers who quit smoking between around age of 35 can add up to 15 years to their life, while female quitters belonging to the same group can extend their lives with up to 12 years. But if you are at ages 65 to 69 and you stop smoking, you only increase the life expectancy by up to 3 years, which is good compared to nothing. But is would be much better if you stub out smoking before it is too late.
Of course, it is your life and you can do what ever you want with it. You can choose to permanently have a bad smelling breath and be avoided by other people when you try whispering something face to face. Why enjoying the rich taste of food or why bother eating at all when you can savor a nicotine filled cigarette? Especially if your bosses got on your nerves and you feel like all the anxiety and pressure and nervousness vanish along with the smoke of the cigar.
