Smoking-related
diseases remain the biggest killers of menfolk in the UK. If
you're a smoker, here are just a few of the many benefits of
giving up:
1. You smell
better
- your clothes and your home will be far better for it –
you'll be a thousand times more attractive to your partners
(or potential partners).
2. You'll have
more energy
- smoking increases carbon monoxide levels in your blood,
reducing oxygen delivery to your body. No wonder your energy
levels are low!
3. Reduced
blood pressure
- after a cigarette your blood pressure surges for at least 20
minutes, placing a strain on your heart.
4. Improved
breathing
- smoking causes the walls of the lung tubes (bronchi) to
constrict, reducing air entry.
5. Better
concentration
- within a day or two of kicking the weed you'll discover your
ability to concentrate is greatly improved. Your mind will be
clearer and you'll be much better able to cope with those
tedious jobs.
