You're on the verge of taking the plunge. Finally ready to lay aside those smokes. Without doubt, you have heard of the many deadly side effects of smoking. There are many and they are real.
Cigarettes Cause Health Concerns
The 1982 Surgeon General's report stated, "Cigarette smoking is the major single cause of Cancer mortality in the United States." Many studies show how cigarette smoking is a major cause of heart disease, which can lead to heart attacks. According to the American Heart Association, 30% of all coronary heart disease deaths in the United States each year are attributable to cigarette smoking. The toll on health is devastating!
Smoking is Expensive
Not only is smoking taking a toll on health, it hits the wallet hard. Smoking is very expensive these days. When I was smoking, I spent around $3,600 and some change a year. Wow! That's a lot of money. If you multiply that by 20 years, that's a really nice chunk of change!
But more than money, it takes off days to your life and adds to your health bills. Illnesses related to smoking cost the nation billions each year. The CDC says the smokers cost the country 96 billion dollars a year directly in healthcare cost.
