Stopping smoking: You can do it !

According to my resource. By now, even the tobacco companies agree that smoking is bad for your health, and not just bad but very bad.

Cigarettes are the most hazardous, but cigars, pipes, and smokeless tobacco also contribute to tobacco's terrible toll. And second hand smoke is an important cause of death and disability in people who never light up.

We are making progress. Many Filipinos have quit, and many communities prohibit smoking in public places. But 17.3 million Filipinos, aged 15 years and older, still smoke. Tragically, smoking kills 10 Filipinos every hour and hundreds of teenagers take up smoking every day. We can do better. Fortunately, there are more ways to kick the habit than ever before.

This is just an advise to my fellow Filipinos specially my friends, classmates, and neighbors. Its not for me, but also to the next generation of life. Let us nurture the environment, specially our health.

Health is wealth.

Thanks for reading.
