Quitting smoking is a difficult thing to do, but when you do it will be something you will never regret. You will have more energy and believe it or not, your lungs will actually start to heal naturally. The cells that your body naturally produces will not be damaged by the smoke you used to inhale. This creates an environment in which the cells will again thrive. The earlier you quit smoking the better your body will heal itself.

Benefits of quitting smoking include:

• Complexion – Smoking causes premature aging of the skin. Your skin will look, feel and be healthier than before.

• Stamina – Your lung capacity will increase greatly when you quit smoking. You will have more energy and you will be able to do thing that were previously impossible.

• Odor – You wont carry the stink of smoke around with you everywhere you go. When you quit, your sense of taste and smell will return and after a few short weeks, you will be repulsed by the smell of cigarette smokers.

• Stress – Studies have shown a correlation between people who smoke and people who suffer from stress (at the very least, the money you save by quitting smoking will help you in this department).
