He told me that 90% of all bladder cancers that he saw were caused by smoking cigarettes. He said that when you smoke the toxins from the smoke enter your bloodstream. These toxins […]
One of the things that amaze me at quit smoking in 60 minutes here in Capalaba is that most of the people that have come to quit smoking do not see that the habit of smoking cigarettes controls them.
It is common to have a person sitting in front of me that by their own admission structures their day, no lives around cigarettes. They are constantly making sure that they have enough cigarettes so that they do not run out or they have to leave a gathering so that they can smoke.
At the moment the jury is out about if e cigarettes are safe or not. Here’s something I’d like you to consider, but before that a little information on nicotine.

One day after an extremely […]

When people come to me to quit smoking at Quit Smoking in 60 Minutes we always talk about the cost of smoking.
What is interesting is that some people have an idea of how much it is costing them but the vast majority have no idea of the cost of their smoking habit. In Australia today it is costing $1 per cigarette. This means that the average smoker is now spending about $8000 a year.
