Stop Smoking
Nicotine is every bit addictive as heroin, cocaine and alcohol. The difference tobacco products is that the tobacco industry has manipulated the levels of nicotine over years to increase the potential for smokers to become addicted. Besides the obvious financial impact and commonly known health risks there are some important points to note if you are hoping to become a biological parent some day.
