Nonprofit Offers More Ways to Quit Smoking without Costly Substances or Drugs! |
|||
Palm Beach, Fla, August 12, 2005 - As the nation is saddened by the sudden death of Peter Jennings by lung cancer caused by smoking, Smoke Free Society, a nonprofit dedicated to helping smokers quit and educating kids not to start, wants to bring more attention to its smoking cessation plans and solutions that help smokers quit without the use of any substance or drug. “90% of lung cancer deaths are caused by smoking today. And with nearly 14,000 loved ones killed by smoking each day, and 4,400 kids starting to smoke every day, we must all work together to educate and keep our children safe from smoking and secondhand smoke, and help those loved ones who want to quit their tobacco addiction – because we care,” said Rez Seyedin, founder of Smoke Free Society. |

Smoke Free Society offers its valuable, three-step quitting plans which include preparation, quitting and support that effectively help smokers quit and stay quit. “We strongly believe that preparation and support are the most important elements in successful quitting and staying smoke free,” said Seyedin. “We have been told by smokers that when they have tried quitting in the past, they were lacking good support. And without it, they would fall back to smoking again. That’s why we incorporated three important steps into our quitting plans – to help answer their questions and uncertainties to prepare their mindset; to help wean them off of the nicotine; and to give them ongoing support for as long as they need, to help them break their habit and stay smoke free,” added Seyedin. “We have learned quitting cold turkey for many smokers is done out of desperation and without preparation and planning. And many falter because their withdrawal symptoms are more severe than if they weaned themselves from their cigarettes, as our quitting plans do,” said Seyedin. The Smoke Free Society website is a portal to an array of information and facts to help educate everyone on the adverse effects of smoking on our lives. It also provides a section to helps educate parents to lead by example and not smoke and learn how to better communicate with their kids about smoking and tobacco use. To help a loved one quit smoking before it’s too late, family and friends should visit its website at: www.SmokeFreeSociety.org today!
