Quitting smoking is one of the most important steps you can take to improve your health. This is true no matter how old you are or how long you have smoked. Many people who smoke become addicted to nicotine, a drug that is found naturally in tobacco. This can make it hard to quit smoking. But the good news is there are proven treatments that can help you quit.
