48 Million People Need To Quit Smoking in USA; 440,000 People Die Yearly From Tobacco Caused Health Problems
Newport Beach CA (PRWEB) September 30, 2013 -- Cigarettes are addictive and habit forming. Some people have been smoking for over 40 years and they are not ready to quit smoking yet.
People can quit smoking with Hypnosis if they want to. In order to be able to quit smoking people have to be motivated and ready to quit. If someone wants them to quit smoking like parents, spouse, wife etc. and they are not convinced and ready to quit smoking, then the success rate is going to be very slim.
Tobacco use leads to disease and disability.
Smoking causes cancer, heart disease, stroke, and lung diseases (including emphysema, bronchitis, and chronic airway obstruction).
For every person who dies from a smoking-related disease, 20 more people suffer with at least one serious illness from smoking.
Tobacco use is the leading preventable cause of death.
Worldwide, tobacco use causes more than 5 million deaths per year, and current trends show that tobacco use will cause more than 8 million deaths annually by 2030.4
Cigarette smoking is responsible for about one in five deaths annually (i.e., more than 440,000 deaths per year, and an estimated 49,000 of these smoking-related deaths are the result of secondhand smoke exposure).
On average, smokers die 10 years earlier than nonsmokers.
Tobacco use costs the United States billions of dollars each year.
In 2000–2004, cigarette smoking cost more than $193 billion (i.e., $97 billion in lost productivity plus $96 billion in health care expenditures).
Information published in 2005 documented that secondhand smoke costs more than $10 billion (i.e., health care expenditures, morbidity, and mortality).
Percentage of U.S. adults who were current smokers in 2011
19.0% of all adults: 21.6% of males, 16.5% of females (43.8 million people)

Goldlite Hypnosis Institute has been helping people stop smoking for over 18 years.
Most smokers need one hypnosis session only. Others, who smoke more than a pack will need 2 or more sessions depending on their motivation and readiness to stop smoking.
