Smoking is often discussed as a lung-health issue, but tobacco also affects the cardiovascular system. Avoiding tobacco is one of the important lifestyle steps for reducing cardiovascular risk.
Building a quit plan
- Choose a clear quit date or starting point.
- Identify situations that trigger cravings.
- Tell supportive family members or friends.
- Seek professional tobacco-cessation support when needed.
- If a previous attempt did not work, use it to improve the next plan.
WHO lists tobacco use among major behavioural cardiovascular risk factors. WHO cardiovascular disease information provides further guidance.
