2. JUST STOP Tobacco smoke contains over 4,000 different chemicals. At least 50 are known carcinogens (cause cancer in humans) and many are poisonous. Tobacco kills up to half of its regular users. Tobacco caused 100 million deaths in the 20th century Scientists claim the average smoker will lose 14 years of their life due to smoking Nicotine reaches the brain within 10 seconds after smoke is inhaled. It has been found in every part of the body and in breast milk. Nicotine is a strong poisonous drug. It is the main ingredient in insecticides or bug sprays. In its pure form, just one drop on a person's tongue would kill him/her.

4. More than 3 million Americans quit smoking each year Sugar approximates to roughly 20% of a cigarette, and many diabetics are unaware of this secret sugar intake. Also, the effect of burning sugar is unknown. ‘Lite’ cigarettes are produced by infusing tobacco with CO2 and superheating it until the tobacco ‘puffs up’ like expanding foam. The expanded tobacco then fills the same paper tube as ‘regular’ tobacco. Smokers draw on ‘lite’ and menthol cigarettes harder (on average) than regular cigarettes; causing the same overall levels of tar and nicotine to be consumed Several active ingredients and special methods of production are involved in making sure the nicotine in a cigarette is many times more potent than that of a tobacco plant. The United States is the only major cigarette market in the world in which the percentage of women smoking cigarettes (22%) comes close to the number of men who smoke (35%).

5. Tobacco caused 100 million deaths in the 20th century Cigarette smoking is responsible for 30% of all cancer deaths. Smokers die not only of lung cancer but also of cancers of the mouth, larynx (throat), esophagus, bladder, kidney, cervix, and blood (leukemia). 87% of all lung cancers are caused by smoking. Since 1987, lung cancer has been the number one killer of women. Women who smoke more than 15 cigarettes a day double their risk of getting cervical cancer. Emphysema is a lung disease that has no cure. A person with this disease has difficulty breathing because the walls of the small air sacs in the lungs are being destroyed. A person with emphysema gets tired very easily. He/she uses up so much energy just to breathe. As the disease gets worse, he/she cannot breathe in enough oxygen from the air and has to breathe through tubes attached to an oxygen tank. There is no cure for emphysema.

6. JUST STOP! Several active ingredients and special methods of production are involved in making sure the nicotine in a cigarette is many times more potent than that of a tobacco plant. Heavy smokers also increase their chances of getting Peripheral Vascular Disease (PVD). In this disease the arteries that lead to the limbs (arms and legs) keep getting narrower. As a result, not enough oxygen-rich blood goes to the arms and/or legs. If the arteries get closed and no blood gets to a limb, the person gets gangrene. The limb then dies and must be amputated. A man with Peripheral Vascular Disease may have trouble performing sex.

7. More than 3 million Americans quit smoking each year Cigarettes are one of few products which can be sold legally which can harm and even kill you over time if used as intended In 1992, Philip Morris alone paid $4.5 billion in taxes. This makes it the largest tax payer in the U.S.

8. Second hand smoke is dangerous Each year second hand smoke causes 300,000 respiratory or lung infections in children younger than a year and a half. 15,000 of them must be hospitalized. Children of smokers have more colds, pneumonia, bronchitis, ear infections, and asthma attacks. They may suffer from coughing, wheezing, too much phlegm or mucus, burning eyes, headaches, and sore or dry mouth. In addition, smoking can make any allergies related to breathing worse. All the poisons from cigarette smoke that enter a mother's blood are passed along to her fetus. Babies of smokers are more likely to be born with low birth weights (less than 5 1/2 pounds) and birth defects. Smoking also increases a woman's chance of having a miscarriage by 24%.

9. ARE YOU READY? The first step in quitting is deciding whether or not a person is ready. The more reasons a person has to quit, the more likely he/she will really do it. After deciding that a person is ready, he/she should write a list of all his/her own reasons for quitting. YOUR REASONS FOR QUITTING ________________________

10. Are You Ready to Quit Smoking? Do I want to quit smoking for myself? yes unsure no Do I believe that smoking is bad for my health? yes unsure no Besides health reasons, do I have other personal reasons for quitting smoking? yes unsure no Are family and/or friends encouraging me to quit smoking? yes unsure no Are family and/or friends willing to help me quit smoking? yes unsure no Are professionals such as doctor, nurse or counselor encouraging me to quit smoking? yes unsure no Am I willing to make some changes in my daily routine? yes unsure no Am I willing to put up with some uncomfortable moments after I quit? yes unsure no Have I tried to quit smoking before? yes unsure no Am I willing to make quitting smoking a top priority in my life for several weeks? yes unsure no

11. Going Cold Turkey The second step is choosing a quit date. A person must decide when is the best time for him/her. He/she should pick a date when no big changes are going on in his/her life. It would not be good to choose a stressful time. One should not try to quit smoking if he/she just lost a job, started a new job, separated from a husband or wife, lost his/her housing, moved into a new apartment, or bought a house.

12. Ready set: QUIT Prescription: Quit Smoking Patient Name: _____________________________________ Date: ____________ Quit Date: _________________________ Just before your quit date: Write down your personal reasons for stopping. Look at your list often. Keep a diary of when and why you smoke. Get rid of all of your cigarettes, matches, lighters and ashtrays. Tell friends and family that you’re going to stop and what your quit date is. Practice going without cigarettes in places where you spend a lot of time, such as your home or car. On your quit date: Stop smoking! Ask your friends, co-workers and family for support. Change your daily routine. Avoid situations where you’d typically smoke. Drink plenty of water. Stay busy. Do something special to celebrate.

13. Ready set: QUIT Prescription: Quit Smoking Right after you stop: Develop a clean, fresh nonsmoking environment around yourself, at work and at home. Try to avoid drinking alcohol, coffee or other beverages you associate with smoking. If you miss the sensation of having a cigarette in your mouth, try carrot or celery sticks, flavored toothpicks or a straw. Chew gum or mints to help with cravings. Stay away from people who smoke. Reward yourself for successes — one hour, one day or one week without smoking. Start an exercise program.

14. Free at last, free at last!!! Within weeks of quitting, ex-smokers start to feel much better. Their senses of taste and smell return. Their cough goes away. They have more energy. They get rid of bad breath and the smoky smell on their clothes and in their hair. They have improved their chances of a longer, healthier life. 24 HOURS after quitting Blood pressure and pulse rate may drop 48 HOURS after quitting Carbon monoxide level in the blood may return to normal 2 TO 12 WEEKS after quitting Circulation may improve and lung function can increase 1 YEAR after quitting Excess risk of coronary heart disease is half that of a smoker's 10+ YEARS after quitting Risk of lung cancer death is half that of a smoker's 15+ YEARS after quitting Risk of stroke and coronary heart disease is that of a nonsmoker‘s
