  4. Quitting smoking is tough, but not impossible

    Many people pick quitting smoking as their New Year's resolution. But if quitting smoking was easy, most smokers would have already done it. Tobacco is highly addictive and the process isn't easy, but quitting is possible for those who really are ready and are linked to methods that work for them, says Christine Schutzman, a certified tobacco treatment specialist who leads a free Freshstart smoking cessation program at the Cancer Institute at St. Joseph Medical Center.

  9. Kicking the habit: Reported Chantix risk shouldn't deter smokers from quitting

    News that a popular prescription medication that helps smokers kick the habit may carry an increased risk of heart attack and other cardiovascular problems shouldn't discourage tobacco users from trying to quit. The long-term health benefits of quitting are undisputed, while the dangers of continuing to puff away are both deadly and well-documented. If one method of stopping is found to be unsafe, smokers will still have a wide variety of other remedies to turn to.
