The booklet begins by covering exactly how the body starts healing once an individual quits smoking. Health benefits start in as little as 20 minutes, as blood pressure and heart rate return to normal levels. And after 15 years of not smoking, the risk of heart disease is the same as that of a nonsmoker. In addition to health benefits, quitting smoking also results in financial and social benefits. Plus, those who quit smoking will no longer expose family and friends to second or thirdhand smoke.

Nicotine addiction is a tricky issue. Not only is there a physical component but a psychological component as well. Doctors can provide assistance when it comes to choosing the best way to quit.

There are various methods of quitting, and the booklet covers many of them.

It addresses the advantages and disadvantages of quitting cold turkey, using nicotine replacement therapies (like nicotine patches and gum), and prescription medication. Those interested in holistic approaches to quitting smoking will find a section covering the most popular alternative quit methods.

Planning and preparation are crucial aspects of successfully quitting. Readers are directed to make a quit plan that lays out the Quit Day, the challenges they may face while quitting, and how they will overcome these challenges. In preparing for Quit Day, researching support groups, use a journal, and plan to eliminate habits that are linked with smoking. The mini magazine also provides direction on putting together an Emergency Urge Kit to help when faced with the urge to smoke.

Most people who quit smoking will experience nicotine withdrawal symptoms for up to four weeks after quitting. The booklet breaks down the most common symptoms so that readers understand what to expect and plan for it. The first few days of quitting smoking are when it’s easiest to slip up. Readers are given techniques that can help increase their chances of success. Many smokers worry about what will happen after they quit, like weight gain. The booklet covers these issues to help allay any anxiety. This booklet is a wonderful addition to any smoking cessation program.
