Quitting smoking benefits are endless. The  top 5 benefits in my opinion are included in this article. I do want to let you know that these benefits by themselves will not help you quit smoking, but hopefully they will provide you with the motivation that you need to butt out for good.



Benefit #1: 90% of lung cancer sufferers are smokers. Most smokers once they are diagnosed quit smoking immediately, which proves that quitting smoking is possible. Within 10 years of quitting  smoking, the risk of lung cancer is cut in half.



Benefit #2: The majority of smokers tend to have high blood pressure. When you stop smoking, your blood pressure will come down on its own.  Having high blood pressure makes your heart work harder and can result in heart disease.



Benefit #3: Smokers on average die approximately 10 years sooner than non-smokers. The sooner that you quit smoking, the sooner the risks associated with smoking begin to diminish.



Benefit #4: Smoking for years, as I'm sure you know, causes you to have an almost debilitating cough. 3 -12 months after you quit smoking that cough should be completely gone.



Benefit #5: The last of the top 5 benefits of quitting smoking is that not only can you smell things better, but you will also smell better yourself. This may seem to be a minor benefit, but how many times have you gone somewhere and been self conscious about the fact that you smell like a cigarette?



There are many many more benefits to be had by quitting smoking and these are just the top 5 in my opinion. Quitting smoking is difficult and it may take a few attempts to be successful, but the most important thing is to keep trying until you are successful. Don't get discouraged if you aren't successful the first or even the second time.
