Quitting smoking isn’t easy! An estimated 42.1 million American adults (18%) smoke, despite smoking being the leading cause of preventable death in the United States and the known risks associated with habitual smoking.
There are reasons behind why people start and why it’s so hard to quit. Firstly, nicotine is highly addictive. It can travel to the brain extremely quickly and gives the body a sense of relief and relaxation while elevating your mood. The problem is that once the nicotine leaves the body, you find yourself reaching for another cigarette to get that same sense of relief and mood boost. Historically, nicotine is one of the hardest addictions to break.
The benefits to your health once you quit are widely known and yet, it’s still so difficult to stop smoking, even when those daily lifestyle habits and tricks are put into play. We’ve developed a new Program at Truestar to help you kick your smoking habit for good.
