Well, then, you have read this somewhere before: of why you should quit smoking and of why you have tried and failed. But again, you have the desire to quit smoking. It is just that you also have many excuses to silence that said desire. Some couple of puffs will do you some good after intervals of some strenuous work. You are hooked and, simply put, addicted.

Yet, many of your long time friends are dying or getting some serious illnesses and some of them are telling you to better quit yourself or like them.It is on that line above that we bring you this some research to add to what you learn already in your own personal experience. Here are the 10 reasons why you should quit the bad habit and start a healthier lifestyle and enjoy life more:

1. Smoking forces Carbon Monoxide into your blood which is actually a deadly substance.
2. Smoking destroys Lung Tissue that makes the lungs function below normal.
3. Smoking creates phlegm – narrowing your airwaves, making it harder to breathe.
4. You are at great risk of Lung Cancer.
5. Smoking destroys the aveoli that gives your body the ability to absorb oxygen and remove carbon dioxide.
6. Smoking can cause asthmatics to have bad asthma attacks.
7. Smoking allows for lung infections to take place easier than they would if you were not smoking.
8. Smoking paralyses and can completely destroy cilia – a protective part in your body that helps clean airways and protect them from infection.

The quicker you quit, the better your chances of improving your health. Smoking kills. Period.
