Stop Smoking Pages

Many people are happy smoking and have not even considered stopping, by stopping smoking it gives you many more advantages in life such as a healthier lifestyle and wellbeing, the satisfaction of knowing you’re not harming other people through passive smoking and not to mention the money you will save as prices are ever increasing. It’s time to put your health first and stop smoking today, governments worldwide are attempting to help by making smoking in public places prohibited which has annoyed a fair few people as they need to go to designated areas, often outside, just to smoke.Some very gruesome facts have been revealed about smoking and the after effects it has on people which it enough to make each smoker stop and think if that’s how they want to end up. The most intense fact I found out was that someone dies every 72 seconds from smoking. Last year it was proven that around 440,000 smokers in America only have died prematurely due to smoking; this has been the case for the last 7 years. If you take the total amount of deaths from alcohol, aids, car crashes, fires, illegal drugs, suicide and murders combined, it’s still less then the number of people that die from smoking alone.

It’s been said that one in five smokers die much earlier then the average life expectancy due to the fact they smoked in their preceding years. If you smoke around 20 cigarettes on a daily basis you will be spending well over $2,000 on a yearly basis so this is money you can save for more important things such as holidays, new cars, home improvements of how ever you wish.
