Answer to Question 1

TRUE

Answer to Question 2

Your risk for illness starts to decrease the moment you stop smoking. You will have fewer sore throats and sores in the mouth, less hoarseness, no more cigarette cough, and lower risk for peptic ulcers. Circulation to the hands and feet will improve, as will gastrointestinal and kidney and bladder functions. Everything will taste and smell better.

You will have more energy, and you will gain a sense of freedom, pride, and well-being. You no longer will have to worry whether you have enough cigarettes to last through a day, a party, a meeting, a weekend, or a trip. When you first quit and you think how tough it is and how miserable you feel because you cannot have a cigarette, try the opposite: Think of the benefits and how great it is not to smoke

The ex-smoker's risk for heart disease approaches that of a lifetime nonsmoker 15 years following cessation. Stroke risk approaches that of a nonsmoker in less than five years. In terms of cancer, the time frame varies. The risk for certain cancer sites is cut in half as early as five years following cessation.
