We all know that smoking is injurious to health. If you smoke despite knowing that, this post will help you quit hopefully. 🙁
1. May Cause Alzheimer’s: It Hastens Mental Decline
In times of old age, the mental decline in smokers is 5x faster than in non-smokers, according to a study.
2. Quitting Will Help Save The Planet
5% of the world’s deforestation is due to felling of trees for tobacco production. This is certainly not good.
3. You’ll Save A Lot Of Money
Cigarettes are quite expensive and an average smoker spends a lot on cigarettes per day. Quitting will help people invest the money in something productive or save it for another purpose.
4. Passive Smoking Is Harmful Too!
Smoking is not only harmful to you, but also to the people around. Passive smoke contains the same amount of carcinogens as the actual smoke itself. Why selfishly harm other people whilst harming yourself in the process of smoking?
5. You Will Be More Liked By People
Most people prefer getting acquainted with non-smokers. It helps you with your social life and people will stop judging you for smoking.
6. Increased Risk Of Impotence
Smoking is directly linked to a man’s ability to get an erection in bed. He will not be able to satisfy himself or his significant other.
7. It Causes Wrinkles
Smoking causes the chemicals in cigarettes to clog the pores of your skin causing poor skin health and pre-mature wrinkling thus making you look older.
8. Cancer, Obviously
Smoking obviously causes lung cancer but the lesser known fact is that it causes stomach, pancreatic, kidney, urinary bladder, and cervical cancer as well.
I understand that one article might not have the powers to force someone out of smoking but I hope to have given you ample reasons to THINK of quiting and then taking the measures for doing so. Please do yourself and your close ones a favor and stop smoking!
