A NewTech Single-Channel ECG 1501 Product Review


As for the fifty-ninth part of this new article series entitled On Smoking, Heart Disease and EKG Machines, we will just continue on discussing here all about the risks and dangers of smoking and how it affects our heart.

What Should I Do First to Stop Smoking?

Pick a date to stop smoking and then stick to it.

Write down your reasons for quitting. Read over the list every day, before and after you quit. Here are some tips to think about:

•    Write down when you smoke, why you smoke, and what you are doing when you smoke. You will learn what triggers you to smoke.
•    Stop smoking in certain situations (such as during your work break or after dinner) before actually quitting.
•    Make a list of activities you can do instead of smoking. Be ready to do something else when you want to smoke.
•    Ask your doctor about using nicotine gum or patches. Some people find these aids helpful.
•    Join a smoking cessation support group or program. Call your local chapter of the American Lung Association.
