The Benefits of
Stopping Smoking (Part Two)
In part one we talked about the
benefits in the first few days of giving up smoking and how within twenty
minutes good stuff is going on in your body. In this part we’re going to talk
about the benefits after a couple of weeks up until 15 years where your risk
of coronary heart disease becomes the same as a person that never smoked.
Lets start within a couple of months
of giving up. Through these weeks your circulation and breathing improve
making it easier to walk. Your lungs start functioning up to 30% better.
Starting in this time and sometimes
taking up to a year your coughing, fatigue and shortness of breathe decrease
and your immune system improves. This makes you a lot healthier in only a
year and you will be able to feel the difference, I know I did.
Within one year of giving up smoking
your risk of coronary heart disease is half that of a smoker and then within
two years the risk of you having a heart attack drops to near normal. This
means that after two years you are one your way to been almost as healthy as
someone who doesn’t smoke.
Within five years of quitting your
risk of having a stroke is reduced and the risk of getting lung cancer is
halved. This is almost reduced to similar of someone who has never smoked by
ten years and chances of getting other cancers such as mouth, larynx, bladder
and kidney are dramatically reduced.
After 15 years the risk of you having
coronary heart disease becomes the same as someone who has never smoked.
That is good news isn’t it. From day
one your becoming more healthier and after a couple of years the risk of
disease is been reduced. After around 10 to 15 years your body is almost that
of someone who has never smoked adding years to your life which goes to show
that it’s never too late to quit smoking.
Now you need to plan on how your
going to quit smoking as I’m sure you want to after reading this. You will
