over 50 percent of them will not survive two years...

Having a problem with giving up smoking? Well maybe reading this will help you a little bit. At the end of the nineteenth century almost no one suffered from lung cancer and in fact it was so unheard of that even doctors really knew what it was. It was until the beginning of the 1900’s that the problem of lung cancer started to appear which was…surprise surprise, just about the same time that cigarette smoking became a widely accepted for not only the aristocratic and middle classes but also the working classes too.

In the 1920’s it became extremely fashionable to smoke and the rates of lung cancer in the 1930’s shot up as a result. In the modern world the amount of people who get lung cancer exceeds those who get prostrate cancer, breast cancer and colon cancer put together. Ninety percent of all people who contract lung cancer are smokers and unfortunately for this reason they get very little sympathy. Most people believe that lung cancer sufferers have brought it upon themselves and thus if you were to go and rattle a tin to try to raise some cash for lung cancer research you don’t get much help.

Over 1.2 million individuals are diagnosed with lung cancer every year worldwide and the number is growing. Well over 50 percent of them will not survive two years and it is a sobering sort to think that the vast majority of them are dying because they smoked something that they could have easily avoided in the first place. Use your head, work it out for yourself and get help to quit cigarettes. If you don’t you will regret it when you are wheezing and in agony on your deathbed and then it’ll be too late.

The most effective smoking cessation drug to date is without a doubt the Champix medication produced by Pfizer.
