No matter how long you have smoked for, it is never too late to quit and to enjoy the consequential health benefits. If you care about your health, quitting smoking is one of the best things that you can do. For those who are thinking about kicking the habit, here are five health improvements that you will notice once you quit smoking to motivate you to take the big step.

1. Your risk of having a heart attack decreases

Cigarettes raise blood pressure and the rate at which the heart beats, making smokers prone to heart disease and strokes. As soon as you stop smoking, your blood pressure and heart rate drop to a healthier level.

2. Your taste buds begin to regenerate

Smoking damages the taste buds. Smoke also leaves tar and in your mouth and on your teeth. Only two days after quitting smoking, your buds will start to improve and you will notice an improvement in your sense of taste. Food will begin to taste better.

3. You will breathe easier

Cigarette smoke constricts the bronchial tubes and covers the little air sacs in your lungs with tar, making it harder to breathe and to get oxygen into your bloodstream. Once you stop smoking, your bronchial tubes will relax and your lungs will begin to heal, making it easier for you to breathe.

4. Your teeth will look better

Cigarette smoke makes your teeth yellow. When you stop smoking, you can do things to make your teeth whiter. You can use a whitening toothpaste that will gradually whiten them, or you could get them professionally whitened which is usually done in a few hours.

5. You will feel better about yourself

Most smokers know that their habit is bad for their health, yet most people find it very hard to quit smoking. Successfully quitting smoking is a great achievement and often encourages the person to start changing other aspects of their life that are unhealthy, such as their diet or the amount of exercise they do.

An important part of quitting is dealing with nicotine cravings and the habit of putting something to your mouth. One of the best quit smoking tools available on the market is the electronic cigarette as it can act as a nicotine replacement therapy and also allow you to continue the physical act of smoking which you may have developed over a number of years.
