There are many health, social and financial benefits to quit smoking. Some smokers believe that a smoking addiction of many years will not bring any tangible results, apart from financial benefits, so they disregard any thoughts about quitting smoking. The fact is that even the most addicted of smokers will benefit from smoking cessation.

Immediate health benefits can be achieved such as a return to normal blood pressure, body temperature and pulse 20 minutes after smoking the last cigarette; within eight hours the oxygen and carbon monoxide levels in the blood return to normal and in two days nerve endings start to regrow. By three months, lung function has increased and circulation has improved.

There are also benefits to any non-smokers when you quit smoking. Non-smokers are also exposed to 4,000 chemicals when they breathe other people's tobacco smoke. Secondhand smoking can affect your children; they are more likely to get chest illnesses, ear infections, wheezing and childhood asthma, tonsillitis and to smoke themselves. Exposing people around you to secondhand smoke will put them at risk of the same diseases as you.

In an effort to make it more difficult for people to smoke and to take away the profits of cigarette companies, the government has levied many new taxes on cigarettes over the last several years. This has caused the price of cigarettes to go through the roof.

Because of the high price of cigarettes, smoking now has quite a negative effect on your wallet. If you want to know how much, figure out how many packs of cigarettes you smoke a week and then multiply that by the cost. Then figure out how much you spend a year. The amount will probably shock you.

The Health of those around you!

If your health isn't reason enough to kick the habit then what about the health of those around you? If you have loved ones who are exposed to your second hand smoke they are also at risk of the same diseases you are. Is it fair to them to give them an of those diseases just so you can smoke? If you have children they are also susceptible to many of the problems that come with smoking on top of several other things. Children who are exposed to second hand smoke are more likely to have asthma related episodes and also second hand smoke causes a buildup of liquid within the middle ear. This buildup is one of the highest reasons for surgery and hearing loss in children, do you really want to do that to your kids just because you smoke?
