Quit Smoking - Great Reasons to Give it Up

If you are trying to give up smoking and you're not sure that you want to then, there are many reasons that can help you with making a decision to go ahead and stub out the cigarette for the last time.

There are many warnings about the health risks of smoking that are advertised everywhere even on the cigarette packets. However, many smokers are aware of the dangers and their cravings for nicotine is far more persuasive that the warning messages being advertised.

Not only does smoking ruin your health it also can have a negative effect on your image and popularity. One of the main drawbacks of smoking is the strong smell that can be very unattractive to the opposite sex. As a smoker you do not notice this smell but a non-smoker can smell you a mile away. You can try and mask it with strong deodorant or air freshener however, these last only temporarily to mask the pungent odour of cigarette smoke.

Cigarette smoke clings to your body clothes and hair like a magnet. The moment that you walk into a smoke free room you will be detected immediately by the powerful sniffing nose detectors of the non-smoker.

Another unappealing side affect of smoking is stained teeth. There you are chatting up a person of the opposite sex, everything is going smoothly until you expose your lovely yellow teeth created by the many years of smoking. If that is not a show stopper I don't know what is.

Smoking also makes you look older. Smoking inhibits the bodies capacity to absorb oxygen into the blood. This is essential to the repair and recuperation of the bodies blood and skin cells. People who smoke have a greater chance of having premature wrinkles appearing on their face.

If you are a smoker and you find it strange why the opposite sex do not want to be in your company for too long then, maybe it is a good idea to give up the cigarettes.
