Everybody tells you to quit smoking. I tell you to understand smoking. If you understand it, you will definitely have no hesitation in quitting it at the earliest. You are entertaining a demon between your lips. You think that you burn him. Yes, externally you burn him. Before that, he burns you internally.

There are many reasons, but let me explain to you about the 5 strong reasons, why you should quit smoking.

You know, cigarette contains nicotine, but you do not know what nicotine contains for you! It has the ultimate attraction for you and therefore it will cause the ultimate damage that it can do for your body and mind! It is tough to quit smoking. But it is worth the try. Your life is at stake! I think, you have just one life to live!

Reason number one, I wish you to live longer and this is possible if you quit smoking. By this gracious act, your standard of living and standard of life will improve.

Why are you extending the invitation with your outstretched hands to lung cancer, heart attack and stroke? Don't you love your life?

Agreed for a while, without the actual agreement, that smoking is your birthright. But is the birthright of your wife and children, is to be victims of passive smoking?

The smoke coils that you artistically dispatch within the four walls of your house, are dangerous to their health. Passive smokers suffer more than the active smokers.

You say you have enough financial problems, but can't you at least delete one of them? Why do you squander money to get your health damaged? Have you any time made sincere study regarding the effects of smoking? The diseases will burn your body within. Why do you invite such type of sad end? Spend the money saved out of quitting smoking for some right causes. Your own fruits and juices for example!

And now, a special warning for pregnant women. You wish to have a healthy baby. It is perhaps possible only if you quit smoking. A baby in the arms of the smoking mother! This is definitely one unwelcome sight!

So, do not postpone smoking cessation. Do not extend open invitation to lung cancer.

Your escape from the heart disease is also ruled out if you persist with your smoking habit. The first action of the cigarette smoke is to decrease the supply to the heart. Heart rate will increase and so also the blood pressure. The chances of blood clotting are more. The arteries harden and damage to the skin is also a distinct possibility.

Do you still wish to smoke? If yes, shall I pity you or condemn you?

A Quick Note From The Publisher... If you like the article above, you may be interested in the following article which is also related to Smoking... How to Quit Smoking...Without Gaining Weight Not everyone gains weight when they stop smoking, but the average weight gain is about 10 pounds.  Weight gain is more likely when someone has smoked for 10 to 20 years or smokes a pack or more a day.  Water retention may cause a deceptive weight gain of up to 5 pounds in the week after quitting smoking, but this is not a real weight gain, and your body will go back to normal. Even if you do gain weight when you quit smoking, the health risks of smoking are far greater…you would have to gain over 150 pounds to make your health risks as high as when you smoked. The most important components of preventing weight gain when you quit smoking are: 1. Physical activity To prevent weight gain at this time, you need to become more physically active.  Beginning to increase your physical activity before you quit smoking may remind you how much smoking slows you down, when you have trouble breathing or start to cough during exercise. Becoming physically active will not only help you control your weight, but will also give you more energy, improve your health, take your mind off smoking, and help relieve the stress and moodiness that may occur as a result of withdrawal from nicotine. Try to do at least 30 minutes of physical activities on most days, even if it is in a few shorter increments.  Physical activity does not have to be planned exercise; it may include taking the stairs, mowing the lawn, or playing with children. 2. Healthy eating Improving your eating habits gradually can help prevent weight gain, as well as help you feel better as you quit smoking.  But changing too much too quickly can increase the stress you feel as you try to quit smoking.  Eating a variety of foods each day is a good start, and eating regularly so you...
