Stop Smoking for Life
Stop
Smoking Now! You can do it!
Most people continue to smoke not because they want to, but because
they are addicted. Evidence shows that nicotine is an additive drug that
your body comes to rely on and crave. Every time you inhale from a cigarette,
nicotine is absorbed through the skin and mucosal lining of your mouth
and nose, resulting in peak levels of nicotine in your bloodstream and
brain. It is rapidly distributed throughout your body, reaching your brain
within 10 seconds of inhalation.
Cigarettes are poison for your body!

health and potentially fatal. Smoking causes side effects and a number
