Question:
How important is it for a 21 year old diabetic to quit cigarettes?
my best friend discovered he's got diabetes (type 1) yesterday. he's 6'3" tall and wieghs 115 kilos. he's been an avid cigarette smoker for the last 4 years and as of today, he smokes anything between 7 to 10 cigarettes a day. I know i have to get him to quit, but i don't think quitting instantaneously will be possible. what should i do? get him to come down to a cigarette or 2 in a day first and then gradually kick it or abandon asap because of his diabetic condition? HELP!!
Answers:
It's very important for him to quit smoking it's bad for him and others. Have him too take a $50 bill and burn it that's what he's doing when he buys the cigarettes. Also have him to consider this those tobacco exectives don't smoke that tells us something.
