Unsay mahitabo kun moundang ka’g panigarilyo?

Bisan pa sa pasidaan nga smoking is dangerous to your health, Dro, kusog gihapon kaayo ang halin sa sigarilyo. Hilabihang lipaya sa mga tiggama sa sigarilyo. Makatintal gyud ang panigarilyo, bisan tuod og wa kitay makuha nga maayo niini, ug bisan kun klaro kaayo nga makadaot sa lawas.

Gani, nagkadaghan ang mga bata, mga 7-10 years old pa, kusog na kaayong moyupyop sa sigarilyo … ambut asa ni sila’g kwarta ipalit niini. Sa among panahon, akong hinumdoman nga mi-graduate na lang mi sa high school, walay usa kanamo ang nanigarilyo.

 Ug karon, kanatong mga senior citizens, unsa man? Sige gihapon kang panigarilyo? Maglisud na kag biya? Puslan man nga daku na kag gasto, padayunon na lang gyud nimo ang panigarilyo?

Gikan na usab sa Internet, sa Yahoo, ania kining mga benepisyo kun moundang ka’g panigarilyo. What happens kono kun moundang ka’g panigarilyo. Unsay masinati sa imong lawas. Ania:

The heightened blood pressure levels will resume to the normal level in 20 minutes.

The level of carbon monoxide in the blood stream will gradually reduce to let the oxygen levels become normal, in about 8 hours.

In 2 days, all the nicotine surging through the body would have left the system, and the perception of taste and smell would have returned to normal.

In 4 days, the bronchial tubes of the body would have relaxed and your energy levels will increase.

In 2 weeks, the circulation will get better and will continue to improve for the next 10 weeks. In 9 months, all respiratory troubles would have ceased and the lung capacity will increase by 10%.

In 5 years, the heart and lung would be functioning like that of a non-smoker, with reduced risks of heart attacks and lung cancer.

At the end of the day, your decision to stop smoking is actually saving your life. While the body takes time to adapt to a non-smoking lifestyle, the occurrence of certain side effects is inevitable. However, with healthy lifestyle alternatives one can stay true to their decision and enjoy a smoke-free life.

So, there you are. Again, your choice. Magpabilin ka bang ulipon sa sigarilyo, o ikaw na ang magbuot manigarilyo ka ba o dili. Your choice. In fairness, hinoon, a great majority sa mga senior citizens mga non-smokers, o dugay nang miundang pagpanigailyo. Mao man gani hinungdan nganong miabot sila’g 70 ug kapin.

Ug ayaw kalimot, paminaw sa Senior Citizens Hour sa dyRC, 648 kHz matag Sabado 4:00-6:00 pm. Tels.4125249, 4125298.
