Top 10 Reasons Why Smoking Stinks

By Jennifer Gruenemay, LifeScript Staff Writer

Saturday, January 5, 2008

Smoking used to be so in vogue that tobacco companies branded their products with hip characters like “Joe Cool” Camel and the Marlboro Man, who rides off into a cloud of cigarette smoke at sunset. But smoking isn’t cool anymore. Both cigarette manufacturers and smokers have had to answer to the mounting evidence that proves smoking kills. But just in case death isn’t enough to scare you into dumping this addiction, here are the top 10 reasons you should quit smoking – today. Plus: Are you ready to quit? Take our quiz…

If smoking wasn’t bad for you, there wouldn’t be so much controversy surrounding it. There wouldn’t be the Truth® campaign or 10-step programs that help you quit smoking, and there certainly wouldn’t be a “how to quit smoking” section on the Philip Morris tobacco company’s web site. So if you’ve ever wondered why your doctor jumps down your throat about not smoking, there’s good reason.

In fact, there are 10 good reasons:

10 Reasons to Kick the Habit

1. You Stink!
You don’t just smell like cigarettes while you’re smoking, you reek of them all day long. The scent of stale cigarettes saturates your hair and clothes and follows you wherever you go, including your vehicle, your work and your home. Smoking also gives you terrible breath, and there’s no mint in the world that can get rid of the smell of a pack-a-day habit.

2. You Have 10 Times More Wrinkles
You can always pick a regular smoker out of a crowd, not just by the stench but by his or her skin quality as well. Smokers have 10 times more wrinkles than non-smokers. They also have pale, ashen skin and yellowing teeth, fingers and fingernails. In fact, a study published by the British Medical Journal found that smokers with prominent wrinkles are five times more likely to suffer from chronic obstructive pulmonary diseases like emphysema and bronchitis than non-smokers. (See related article: Restore Young Skin and Fight Signs of Aging)

3. Your Lungs are Full of Phlegm and Tar
Smoking causes sticky, black tar to build up in your lungs, reducing the exchange of oxygen, carbon dioxide and nutrients between its tissues and the bloodstream. This negatively affects your entire body, but you’ll especially feel it in the lungs. Smokers have more of a difficult time breathing and are more likely to develop painful chronic coughing due to the increase in phlegm production. The good news is that if you stop smoking, your lungs can clear some of the tar and heal significantly. According to the National Cancer Institute, your body begins the healing process just 12 hours after your last cigarette. Improved lung function and circulation can take up to three months.

4. Smoking Can Cause Depression
Feeling moody lately? Outlook on life a bit pessimistic? Smoking has been shown to be a major cause of depression, so don’t just blame the rain if you’re feeling blue. A study published in the Archives of General Psychiatry followed more than 1,000 smokers and non-smokers over the span of five years and found that the smoker group was twice as likely as the non-smoker group to suffer from major depression.

Some smokers actually turn to cigarettes to ease depression, but this only contributes to the problem. Kick the habit and you’ll have the chance to rediscover a sense of control over your life that may help lift depression.

5. It’s Expensive
If the fact that smoking is burning a big hole in your health and happiness doesn’t move you, maybe the fact that it’s burning a big hole in your pocket will. Depending on where you live, a single pack of cigarettes can cost up to $6, and if you smoke a pack a day, that’s almost $2,200 a year!

Just to drive the point home, let’s say you start smoking at age 18 and live to age 68 (since you’ll most likely die young from smoking). Over the course of those 50 years, you will have spent almost $110,000 on cigarettes alone. And that doesn’t include the extra gum and breath mints, in addition to higher dry-cleaning bills for getting the smell of stale smoke out of your clothes. (See related article: How Do I Stop Smoking?)

6. You’re Becoming Infertile
It has long been known that male smokers generally have a low sperm count, but recent studies also show that genetic mutations of sperm from male smokers may also be to blame for infertility. Male smokers are also at a higher risk for erectile dysfunction. Female smokers may also have a harder time getting pregnant.

7. You’re in for a Difficult Pregnancy
If you do actually become pregnant, you’re in for a rough ride. Women who smoke during pregnancy are more likely to experience ectopic pregnancies, which occur when the fertilized egg begins to develop in the slender fallopian tube instead of the uterus. Ectopic pregnancies can be fatal for both mom and baby. Other risks to the baby’s health include lower birth weight and birth defects. Women who smoke during pregnancy are also more likely to deliver prematurely or miscarry.

8. You’re a Bad Influence
Kids imitate their parents. So if you smoke in front of your kids, they’re likely to copy you.

One study presented at the American Heart Association’s annual meeting showed that 50% of kids whose parents were smokers thought smoking was “cool.” Fifty-five percent of kids of smokers planned on smoking in the future. Children brought up by smokers have also been found to be generally less active and develop poor nutrition skills. If you want to positively shape the futures of your children and the other children around you, quit smoking and be a healthy role model.

9. Second-Hand Smoke Kills
Not only is smoking a bad influence on those around you, it’s killing them too. You can’t contain cigarette smoke, which means that innocent people breathe in your second-hand smoke. Children and adults who are exposed to second-hand smoke are at a higher risk of developing lung cancer and heart disease, as well as other respiratory problems including shortness of breath, coughing and increased production of phlegm. Children exposed to second-hand smoke are particularly at risk for developing asthma.

10. Smokers Die Young
Smoking is the #1 leading cause of preventable disease and death in America. And it’s not a pleasant way to go. Smokers risk developing cancer of the mouth, throat and lungs, as well as asthma, chronic bronchitis and emphysema. Smokers are also more prone to high blood pressure, high LDL (bad) cholesterol, stroke, and heart disease. In fact, a smoker’s risk of dying from sudden cardiac death (heart attack) is anywhere from 2-4 times greater than non-smokers.

Are You Ready to Quit Smoking?
By now you should know that smoking increases your risk for heart disease, lung cancer, stroke, and more. You know you should quit, but do you have a clear game plan of how you’ll overcome your addiction? Find out if you’re really ready to quit smoking once and for all. Take this smoking quiz.

8 Healthy Ways to Start Your Day

EatBetterAmerica.com

Mornings can be mayhem or magical–depending on your outlook on A.M. activities. Most of us would settle for somewhere in between. And that’s doable, if you rethink the moments between your feet touching the floor and heading out the door.

Here are ways to get your day off to a healthy start, courtesy of Alice D. Domar, PhD, director of the Mind/Body Center for Women’s Health at Boston IVF, Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology, Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center.

Wake up your senses. Fill your bedroom with soothing light and your favorite colors, fragrances, flowers and music.

Reach for the sky. Stretching your body when you wake up is a wonderful way to loosen up your joints and increase flexibility. Mimic the way a cat wakes up by elongating your spine and stretching out your arms and legs, one at a time. Slowly stand up, inhale as you stretch, and exhale as you contract.

Make a promise to yourself. As soon as you wake up, think of one nice thing you can do for yourself that day.

Indulge in a water massage. Use your morning shower to cleanse your body and your mind. Mentally focus on positive thoughts, and use the pressure of the warm water to stimulate your muscles. Be mindful of how the warm water and soap feel against your skin.

Break the fast. Fuel yourself with a high-fiber breakfast that includes whole grains, fruit and low-fat protein.

Find joy in journaling. Let your mind wander to an enjoyable memory. Then write down your thoughts and feelings about that memory. It could be just the boost your morning needs.

Move it in the morning. Wake up your metabolism and energize your body. Exercising in the morning demonstrates that you put your health first–helping you feel good about yourself all day.

Fight that foggy-head feeling. If you’re not a morning person, trying to multitask first thing is a recipe for a rough start. Concentrate on important tasks one at a time, and give yourself enough time to get ready. It helps some folks to have a morning blastoff checklist.

Como saber si ya vas mucho a un lugar?

Es facil!, y mas en mi caso, checa estos datos, la respuesta a la pregunta es:

1. Cuando en el departamento de discos/pelis en Liverpool ya te conocen, te preguntan como estas y te dicen que poque no has ido
2. Cuando en Cinemark los Señores que cuidan los carros y te acomodan, tambien te saludan y dicen que porque no he ido, que como he estado!

Que tal ehh??

Un dia mas… y manana es navidad!

The Assassination of Jesse James by the Coward Robert Ford

Hoy fuimos al cine Marce y yo a ver “The Assassination of Jesse James by the Coward Robert Ford“, muy buena, personajes complejos y llenos de peculiaridades, una fotografia increible, musica que va llevando la escena hasta la cuspide… Vale la pena, pero no esperes cine comercial, es todo lo contrario, alternativo 100%.

Lo mejor de la noche fue que me sorprendio Marce dandome un regalo de Navidad (que ya esta en el arbolito), no me lo esperaba, fue algo lindo y me dejo un lindo sentir, me toco mi fibra sensible…
