10 Reasons To Quit Smoking

In this blog post I will list 10 (Good) reasons you should quit smoking and start vaping. Quitting smoking once and for all can be hard. But, with the help of vaping you could be smoke free tomorrow. There are many good reasons to quit smoking, the least of all being the cost to your wallet and your health.

1. The Savings

The price of a packet of 30 cigarettes in Australia as of May 2020 is $48. If you are a pack a day smoker that means you’re forking more than $300 a week and over $17,000 per year. Just think of that holiday you’ve been saving for, or the new car you’ve been wanting to buy.

Vaping (in comparison) is relatively cheap. A brand new starter kit and enough e-liquid to last a week is less than the cost of two packets of cigarettes. Vaping is around 95% safer than smoking and offers an alternative option for those who have struggled to quit smoking with traditional methods.

2. Smelling Like an Ashtray is Not Cool

When you’re a smoker you don’t seem to notice it. But trust me, the smell is bad! Cigarette smoke has a way of getting into your clothes and hair leaving you with the lingering smell of stale smoke. And it’s not the pleasant smell of a burning wood fire, this is the smell of thousands of deadly chemicals burning and leaching from your clothes and hair.

Sometimes quitting smoking is hard, I found being able to vape flavours I enjoy really helped with my quitting journey. How I quit smoking was by finding a flavour I really loved such as Strawberry and Cream. After a week of vaping your sense of smell returns, and you notice how bad the cigarette smell really is.

3. Your Dentist Will Thank You

One of my biggest regrets is the damage smoking has done to my teeth. If you’ve seen my reviews, it’s hard not to notice that my teeth are badly stained from 24 years as a smoker. Smoking can cause a range of dental issues including mouth cancers. Professional teeth whitening can cost thousands of dollars and over the counter products often won’t remove the years of damage smoking has done to your teeth.

The Tar and Nicotine found in cigarettes is what causes the staining. Vaping e-liquids do not contain tar, and using nicotine is optional so teeth staining is far less likely to occur. I wish vaping had been an option twenty years ago, it would have saved me a lot of money on teeth whitening products.

4. Your Skin Will Look Better

Let’s face it, the damage from smoking can also be seen on your face.If you’d rather look your actual age instead of 20 years older, quit smoking now! Did you know that e-liquid contains a common ingredient found in many cosmetics? Propylene Glycol is used in hair care and skin care products, and even in the over the counter nicotine sprays found at the chemist.

I quit smoking three years ago and I’ve noticed a vast improvement in my skin. I’ve always been acne prone and would suffer from combination dry and oily skin. Since making the switch to vaping I have far fewer breakouts and my skin looks much healthier.

5. No more Smokers Cough

Every smoker dreads the common winter cold. Once that infection hit your lungs, it is usually months of coughing up yucky stuff while you contain smoke through the coughing fits. I remember walking up a short flight of stairs and wheezing and coughing by the time I reached the top.

Since I started vaping I’ve avoided nasty coughs that last more than a few weeks. Breathing has gotten a whole lot easier. And another great side effect of quitting smoking, I don’t get recurring nasal infections or hay fever.

6. You Can Smell Taste Again

After smoking for so long you don’t tend to notice the effects of smoking on your sense of taste and smell. Food would often taste bland, and I became desensitised to certain smells and flavours. Within 2-3 week of not smoking you’ll begin to notice a vast improvement.

One of the reasons I wanted to quit smoking was so I could enjoy baking again. I wanted to re-experience my favourite foods after years as a smoker. But, eating all that sugar isn’t great for the waistline. The alternative for me has been dessert vapes like Mamas Apple Pie from Vapoureyes.

7. Breathing is easier

8. Your house will thank you

I remember my shock one day when mum cleaned the walls of the house I grew up in. The walls weren’t yellow, they were white! Growing up in a house of smokers I became used to the second hand smoke and the stained walls. Smoking exposes children and pets to second hand smoke, but it also leaves some nasty stains on your furniture and walls.

If you decide to stop smoking and make the switch to vaping, you won’t have to deal with the stale cigarette smells or the stained walls any longer. Vaping indoors doesn’t come with as many issues as smoking. A thin greasy residue may appear on windows over time, but this is easily removed without needing to repaint your walls.

9. Save Yourself from Thousands of Carcinogenic Chemicals

There are over 7000 chemicals in tobacco smoke. Hundreds of these are known to be harmful, including such chemicals as hydrogen cyanide, carbon monoxide, and ammonia. Tobacco companies are still very coy about what exactly is added to their products. Some are arguably added to entice young smokers into lifetime customers.

White anti-vaping groups claim that flavoured e-liquids entice children, they are quick to forget that ingredients such as chocolate and vanillin were included in cigarettes for that very reason. E-liquid is made from 3-5 main ingredients; Flavouring, Vegetable Glycerin, Propylene Glycol, Water, and Nicotine. These same ingredients are found in the foods we eat, and the products we consume.

10. You’ll Live Longer

The life expectancy of smokers is at least 10 years shorter than that of non smokers. We’ve known since the 90’s that smoking not only shortens your life but can also kill. Costs associated with smoking related illness costs Australia more than 6 billion dollars annually. Tobacco use in Australia is linked to 20,000 deaths each year. Of all the reasons to quit smoking, the risk to your life is the most important.

Despite numerous reports of vaping related illnesses and deaths last year in the US, no one has officially died from vaping e-liquid containing nicotine. These cases were directly linked to illegal THC cartridges that were purchased on the black market. The THC liquid had been mixed with an oil, Vitamin E Acetate, which caused a unique form of lipoid pneumonia. While the deaths sparked debate and fear in Australia, it’s important to note that not one single case of this illness occurred in Australia or in other countries around the world.

Conclusion

There is no doubt that quitting smoking will improve your overall health and increase your life expectancy by at least 10 years. There are many methods out there from quitting cold turkey, to medication over the counter smoking cessation products and, also vaping. It is important that you seek medical advice and make your own informed decision about the best method of quitting smoking for you.
