Why Quitting Smoking is Important:
Since 1964 when the Surgeon General of the United States released his report linking smoking to a wide range of respiratory diseases including cancer, Americans have known of the potential hazards of cigarette/ pipe use. Following that report, the rate of smoking in adults has gradually decreased from 42.4% in 1965, 20.9% in 2005, and 17.8% in 2013; 20.5% in men and 15.3% in women.. However, while we have made progress, there is still a great need to encourage to***co cessation. We now know that smoking is responsible for many other diseases. Use of to***co products has become the largest single preventable cause of death in America. Below is a brief discussion of some of the many links between smoking and systemic disease.

To***co Use and Systemic Diseases
Cardiovascular Disease: Cigarette smoke damages the lining of blood vessels and begins the process of atherosclerosis (plaque that blocks the blood vessels). This in turn leads to all forms of heart disease including angina (chest pain), heart attack, irregular heart beats, stroke, and sudden death. In 2011, it was estimated that there were 174,500 deaths from cardiovascular diseases directly related to smoking; and 46,000 deaths from exposure to second hand smoke.

Lung Diseases: Cigarette smoking is the leading cause of respiratory diseases in the United States resulting in more than 84,000 deaths from bronchitis, emphysema, pneumonia, and chronic airway obstruction (COPD. Cigarette smoking directly causes over 90% of lung cancers; and secondhand smoke causes 3,000 lung cancer deaths annually in nonsmokers. One study estimates that 17% of lung cancer in nonsmokers results from exposure to to***co smoke during their childhood years.

Gastrointestinal Diseases: Smoking is associated with an increased risk for GERD, gallstones stomach ulcers and cancer of the esophagus, stomach, pancreas, liver, and colon cancer.

Arthritis / Bone Disease: Smoking increases the risk for rheumat

Headaches
Everyone suffers the occasional mild headache, but if you experience debilitating pain and/or abnormally frequent headaches, you probably want to find relief. There are countless causes of headaches, which differ for each person, so you’ll have to do some experimenting to figure out the cause of your pain. Fortunately, the vast majority of headaches are primary headaches, not the result of underlying medical conditions. The three most common types are cluster, tension-type, and migraine.

A cluster headache affects a specific point of the head, often the eye, and is characterized by sharp, piercing pain. Migraine and tension-type headaches are far more common. “Tension“ headaches are now called “tension-type“ headaches because pain is not only caused by stress, but also poor posture, depression, and even sexual activity. In fact, recent studies have shown a connection between low serotonin levels and so-called “tension“ headaches.

Causes
The cause of a headache is often elusive. Although it may seem that your head is pounding for no reason, there is always an explanation for pain. To find out the cause of your headaches, keep a log. Write down the date and time each headache starts and stops, the location of the pain, the nature and severity of the pain, and any factors that seem to trigger the headaches (food, stress, menstrual cycle, medicine, etc.).

Some of the many causes of headaches:

Emotional and physical stress
Fatigue
Irregular sleep habits (sleeping too much or too little)
Skipping meals
Caffeine use or withdrawal
Hormonal factors, such as menstruation
Monosodium glutamate (MSG)
Foods with nitrates, such as hot dogs
Alcohol
Some medicines
Certain foods, including red wine, chocolate, aged cheeses, pickled foods, nuts, and aspartame
Changes in weather, altitude, or time zone
Symptoms
Just as the causes vary for each headache sufferer, so do the symptoms and severity of pain. Health professionals can often diagnose the type of headache you suffe

Cold and Flu
Colds and influenza (flu) are the most common illnesses among college students.

Causes
Both of these illnesses are upper respiratory infections, meaning they involve your nose, throat, and lungs. Viruses cause both colds and flu by increasing inflammation of the membranes in the nose and throat.

Most transmission of these viruses occurs via hand-to-hand contact.

Symptoms
Flu symptoms come on suddenly and affect the body all over. Flu symptoms are usually more serious than a cold and include:

fever (100° F),
headache,
more intense pain and fatigue, and
more severe, often dry cough.
When you get the flu, you are also more prone to bronchitis, sinus, and ear infections.

Cold symptoms mostly affect above the neck and include:

a runny or stuffy nose (nasal congestion),
sneezing,
sore through, and
cough.
You may also experience a mild headache, body aches or a low grade fever. Typically, a cold lasts 2-14 days.

Treatment
If any problem is causing you discomfort, you should seek medical care.

Seek medical attention promptly if you have:

a fever of 102° F or greater (which may indicate a more serious infection),
a persisting cough, especially with a significant fever (which could indicate pneumonia),
a persistent sore throat (especially if runny nose does not develop - which could indicate a strep infection), or
any cold lasting more than 10 days.
Because colds and flu are caused by viruses, they cannot be cured by antibiotics. There are tips to help you feel better and strengthen your immune system to fight illness:

Rest more than usual and avoid exercise until symptoms are gone.
Drink lots of clear fluids (e.g., water, tea).
Stay away from cigarette smoke.
Do not take antibiotics unless specifically prescribed for you to cure the illness from which you currently suffer.
Avoid drinking alcohol because it weakens your immune system and may interact with medications.
Avoid caffeine, which can increase congestion and dehydration.
Eat a well-balanced
