Once a person decides that it’s time he or she stopped smoking, it is better to start sooner rather than later. However, how do you stop smoking, when you have been smoking for a number of years? Smoking is an extremely difficult addiction to break because tobacco contains the compound called nicotine which is addictive to both the mind and body.
Studies have shown that each time you smoke a cigarette, it has cost you about 5 to 20 minutes of your life. Apart from weakening the body, smoking leaves a person with halitosis, yellow teeth, wrinkles, lower bone density, fertility problems that will eventually affect the sexual health of both men and women and a higher risk of being infected with deadly diseases such as lung cancer. Smoking is costly and can reduce the life span of a person by around 10 years or even more.
