Tobacco addiction
Is like any other drug addiction. It causes many profound adverse effects on the smoker’s life. Even after a smoker successfully quits, relapse may occur. Smoking is responsible for more than 25,000 deaths alone in the UK and it reduces the average lifespan of a smoker. This is why quitting smoking as soon as possible is the only way to have as healthy a future as possible.
Many people enrol in our stop smoking services at Maple leaf as we offer the following benefits:
- Giving up smoking increases your life expectancy by 1 – 4 years.
- Quitting smoking reduces the risk of high blood pressure, peripheral artery disease and stroke and most importantly heart attacks and death from heart diseases.
- Quitting smoking also reduces your risk of developing diabetes, emphysema, throat cancer, lung cancer, chronic asthma, chronic bronchitis, ulcers, gum disease and many other health conditions.
- After quitting, you won’t cough as often or have as many sore throats. It also increases your stamina.
- Quitting smoking can help prevent the early formation of wrinkles, improve your skin texture and even get rid of foul breath.
- Improve your sense of taste and smell.
- Helps you save money.
