Quitting Smoking Benefits - The Good Stuff Starts Right Away!

Yes, quitting smoking is very much worth the effort.

Within 20 minutes after you smoke that last cigarette, your body begins a series of positive changes that continue for years.

- Your blood pressure starts to go down.

- Your pulse rate drops (My resting pulse has dropped from 84 to 62 since I stopped).

- Your blood circulation begins to improve. This is actually one of the biggest quitting smoking benefits of all. Smoking constricts (makes smaller) your blood vessels and capillaries, which means your heart has to work harder to get blood and oxygen to those places in your body where it needs to go. When you stop smoking your veins and capillaries begin to relax and open up, which lowers the work load on your heart, which is why you'll experience a lower heart rate, lowered risk of heart attack, lower blood pressure, and higher energy level.

The quitting smoking benefits go on and on.

8 hours after your last cigarette:

- The carbon monoxide level in your blood drops to normal (the bad stuff is going away).

- The oxygen level in your blood increases to normal (the good stuff is increasing).

24 hours after your last cigarette:

- Your chance of having a heart attack begins to decrease (I've been told this is a big plus).

48 hours after your last cigarette:

- your damaged nerve endings begin to regrow - your ability to smell and taste begins to improve

The first and most noticeable quitting smoking benefit that I personally experienced was that my cigarette cough, which was terrible before I quit, was almost totally gone after three weeks. Three weeks! Amazing!

The worst nicotine withdrawal symptoms are gone after the first month.

2 Weeks to 3 Months After Quitting

- Your lung function begins to improve. - Circulation improves - Walking becomes easier

1 to 9 Months After Quitting - Your coughing and shortness of breath decrease.

1 Year After Quitting - Your added risk of coronary heart disease is half that of a smoker's.

5 Years After Quitting - Your stroke risk is reduced to that of a nonsmoker's 5-15 years after quitting.

10 Years After Quitting - Your lung cancer death rate is about half that of a smoker's. - Your risk of cancers of the mouth, throat, esophagus, bladder, kidney, and pancreas decreases.

15 Years After Quitting - Your risk of coronary heart disease is back to that of a nonsmoker's.

I hope you're getting the message here.

Aside from the improvements to your physical health, your confidence will soar as you accumulate more smoke-free time. Breaking your nicotine addiction is very empowering.

Depending on what cigarettes cost in your neck of the woods, you'll save close to $2000.00 a year. I'm sure you can think of something to do with that money.

- Your car, your house, and your clothes will no longer reek of cigarette smoke.
- The good stuff goes on and on.

Quit Smoking Right Now - How The Successful Few Quit Smoking Instantly & How You Can Do The Same

Most people fail to quit smoking right now because they go about quitting smoking the wrong way. If you try to quit like everyone else, then no matter how hard you try or no matter what your desire or commitment to stopping smoking, it will inevitably fail in the long run whether that be one day or three years or even forty years.

Most people fail not because quitting is tough, but because they have been given the wrong information on how to quit. It is possible to quit smoking with the right method in an instant. I'm not referring to hypnosis, but what im referring to is how people are able to quit in an instant while others battle to quit for years.

If you have been smoking for more than a year and realise that you are not getting anything from smoking and would like to be free from this nightmare, then realise that you will find it easier to quit than someone who has just started out, the main reason is that you no longer realise that you get anything from smoking. The illusion of pleasure has passed and you now realise that you are a slave to this drug.

Once you realise this, then stopping right now or quitting in an instant becomes almost automatic. Most people quit without thinking of the reasons why they started smoking in the first place, if you do not realise why you started smoking in the first place, then you will find it very tough to quit smoking.

I stopped in an instant the minute I realised that there was nothing to give up, you see most smokers fail because they think they are losing something when in fact I knew I was gaining, this is the trick to stopping.

Why would you quit something you enjoy? Would you quit your favourite sport? Not unless you injured yourself, but even then you wouldn't go about simply quitting for good, you would continue to follow the sport through magazines and television.

With smoking there is nothing to quit! You are not quitting smoking, you are gaining! You are getting back to normal, the normal you before you began smoking.

My name is Brian Jeffries and I was a chain smoker for years, I smoked continually. At the age of 19 I was smoking around 50-60 cigarettes per day. I knew that it would soon kill me but continued to smoke for years despite the fact that I had asthma.

I read numerous books on the market to only find they were written my non smokers which tended to be ghost writers writing for publishing companies while the other books on the market were more the scientific type which never helped me at all, they always seemed to tell me and im sure you what we already know about smoking and that is that it was killing us.

He then made a remarkable discovery of how to quit in an instant. This was without hypnosis and without any quit smoking aid, he quit smoking forty cigarettes per day and never craved a single cigarette ever since.
