Still time to quit smoking
HURON -PERTH - New Year's resolutions come.
And -go. At the top of the list -for many is the challenge
to"quit smoking. Studies indicate that as many as 90
per cent of, regular smokers would tike to quit, and
most have already made attempts to do so.
For those interested in "kicking the habit", the -
Lung Association, Huron -Perth Counties offers a
wide range of material 'including Get On
Track, as self-help smoking cessation guide
full of information and encouraging tips.
helps in - planning the steps to quitting
smoking, outlines potential problems, and
offers strategies to cope with any withdraw-
al symptoms.
Smokers who quit improve their prospect
of living longer and healthier lives. With-
in a year of quitting, the' 'additional.
risk of heart disease -caused by
smoking drops by half. After 15
years of quitting, a person's risk of
death from smoking-related disease
is about half that of someone who
have never used, tobacco. Not only
does the,smoker benefit from quitting. but so do those
around him. '
-The medical communityand the Canadian public -are
coming tounderstandthe risk posedrby second-hand
smoke, especially for children. For instance, sudden in-
fant
death syndrome (SIDS) is 800 times more likely in
a home where there is, one or 'more smokers. Ear in-
fections, tonsillitis. bronchitis and
asthma arc far more common'in chil-
dren who live in a home with a smok
er.
Quitting is rarely easy. Nicotine is ex—
tremely addictive, harder to give up than co-
caine or heroin. As well,. people wanting to
quit must fight the "habit" that smoking has
become - the cigarette with a eoffce, the first
cigarette of, the day. the cigarette. while on the
telephone. Although quitting smoking can be
difficult, lots of people have successful-
ly done it: Today more than seven
million Canadians arc former smok-
ers, enjoying better health and pro-
viding a healthier environment for
their families. •
By National Non -Smoking Week.
January .19 to 25, New Year's resolutions
ria, have become distant memories. 1f you would like
help in making the' resolution to become a non-smoker'
a reality,'call The Lung Association at 27.1-7500.
