Nicotine reduces the amount of oxygen in your blood, thereby causing an effect on your breathing and heart rate. The constant and permanent damage caused to the tiny alveoli in your lungs reduces the oxygen supply and results in ain increase in blood pressure and a heightened risk of heart attack
Financial costs of smoking are also high with the tax on cigarette and tobacco products going up every year. The inconvenience of always having to check you have come cigarettes and a lighter available and sometimes travelling many miles to buy more, even going out in the rain or snow just so you can up supplies to ensure you can feed your habit - even though each cigarette only gives you the desire for the next one!
Being free from addiction is a great benefit. I know this well from personal experience as I myself am an ex-smoker of many years. Your sense of taste and smell returns and is enjoyable once again. Knowing that you don’t smell of cigarettes makes you feel good about yourself. Freedom from guilt about smoking is a wonderful feeling.
