I quit smoking 7 years ago with the help of Allen Carr ‘s book. I am very happy and proud of myself for quitting an awful habit.
I quit smoking tobacco after 16 years. The date i quit was 18th of August 2019. I feel much healthier.
I quit smoking cigarette 4 days ago before 'cos I had breathing problems last week
Will I get more healthier in few monthes?
@@mommyforever7277 Yes. I got up to running 90 miles a week after month. I could even run for 4 mins when I first quit smoking.
Also hot baths and inhaling steam can do miracles, Herbal teas and daily exercise have a great effect on reversing smoking effects I can assure! Goodluck all!

if you quit smoking, good on you!!!! stay with it... youll be happy down the road
Thank you, 11 days down and I am done. Very sweet of you to offer people some encouragement. Made me feel good, especially with so many exclamation marks!!! 😂🙏
if u are about to quit smoking just think about ur future like ur wife and childrens... what if u have beautiful wife and adorable lovely kids just think that how lucky i will be to spend my life with them
but with smoking habit no one can't make it...
just think once that did we get any flavour from a cigaratte that we like it or else we get a single benefit with it...
well m happy that i quit smoking after 6 years killing myself slowly
guyz stay away from this dangerous thing and live ur life happily
Smoked for about 25 years, quit about 6 months ago. I will tell you when i quit, I felt like i was going to cough up a lung! It was intense! I started going to the gym shortly after stopping, and the coughing was even worst! I knew I was coughing up years of tar and nicotine, but the coughing fits scarred me a little. I turned to the internet, and found out that it was fairly normal. Some people cough more than others. After about a month, the coughing subsided and went away! No more coughing in the morning, or night ! I breath so much better, and food taste a lot better! Thus the 10 pounds i gained! lol ! And the one thing i do not miss is that smell in my clothes, and my skin. One more thing, the coughing spells kind of was a good thing. Every time I think of picking up a cigarette, i think about those intense coughing spells, and how long it took to get that crap out of my system. Good luck to everyone, either you will quit smoking or the smoking will quit you! At least that is how I felt.
I need to stop so bad but have not found the courage...I am ashamed😪
@@Rob-qr2kn seems like you are in the right place
Oh my!! After 36 years of hard core smoking ( was at 3-4 pks a day!) I finally found every thing I needed to quit. I am about to finish up my 4th day smoke free!!!!! I haven’t started to cough yet. This video scares me as to what might be ahead for me 😵😵. I thought I would die with a smoke in my hand, so to be free of it is truely amazing. I am so grateful.
How is it going???
33 years here...a few hours from day 5. Just starting to cough, not too bad.
Fight withdrawal symptoms for one year
3 to 4 packs a day?are your lubgs made of steel?u shoulf be grateful to be alive.forkin quit now.
There’s absolutely no way you smoked almost 80 cigarettes in a day your just fabricating that too gain more sympathy and attention
Almost 2 years smoke-free and wow do I feel so much better than I have in a long time.
I started smoking during the summer of 1969. I quit smoking on march 3, 2021. I have severe emphysema. But.......I'm working on it. I'm getting better. Feeling better. Using less oxygen therapy. Eating better and healthier. You're never too young or old to quit.
Are you still smoke free and how are you doing?
Good luck shirley
This was short but rather informative. I've been quit for ten years, but am suffering with what I think is COPD. I am doing buteyko breathing exercises to help with that and am of course searching for anything else to give me a boost. Thanks for the video.
stopped smoking for a couple of weeks now and watching this vid gives me motivation to continue stopping . Thnx for the info :)
its been 3 months today exactly... needed to watch this to remind myself why i am quitting.
This is a really good video explaining the work of our lungs when we smoke and when we stop. Worth sharing!
I quit smoking just 5 days back. From 22 cigarettes on 20th July I had zero cigarettes on 21st. Just think of 1 day at a time. Don't think of longer term. I don't know know how far I will go but will power is everything. And avoid smoker friends and other triggers and keep busy for few days. First 3-4 days are pure torture. Craving is at it's peak. But with each day you feel stronger. Will power is must.
I quit March 13th 2014 still going strong 💪🏻
Bri Aronson quiter
How do you feel now
its been 6 days for me. i love to watch these kinda videos. so that i can never start again
I am 7 days smoke free ! it feels great though but very difficult to control myself ! I hope all the smokers out there also start quitting cigarettes and stay happily ever after with their loved one's ! happy quitting stay smoke free all d best guyz u can do it!
Quit for 3 months in Afghanistan, then started back with black and milds and cigs when I came back home. Now it's been over 8 months of continuously not smoking cold turkey. Hope to keep this up - it's my most proudest accomplishment. Will get on that vitamin a though. Thanks
Am almost 2 months smoke free, I get intimidated when I see one of ma mates smoke but I gotta hold on.
I've smoked since I was 16 and now that I'm married, I finally decided to quit smoking once and for all after my 30th birthday. It's been nearly half a year now and I haven't had a single cigarette. I feel so energetic and healthy now. Smoking is just a bad habit. If you are determined to do it, it's not hard quit.
Done with all forms of smoking thankyou! Please stand with me my sisters and brothers! Let's take back our life and live again! Thank you Jesus! 😭
i stopped smoking after watching it... i had been smoking for 19 years 😕
iamnotaflirt how ist going with smoking?
I have not smoked that long wow. Well, I have decided today is the day i need to quit
Inspite of some of the rude comments, You did a excellent interpretation of what smoking does to the lungs and ways to speed up the healing process. I'm currently vaping right now and down to 3 MGS , Even though I went a little crazy on the Mods, Lol! But, when I get down to Zero Nic that will be it for me and I can give my mods to someone else who is struggling with quitting. Smoked for 34 years.
Same here. It's been two days for me and these kind of videos help to stay away from the bloody stick. You know, in just 2 days my breathing has improved. I can feel it. I have been a smoker for 6 years and now I quit.
This is the first vid that got to me. Im quitting tomorrow.. And preparing my self .. Best vid out there
After having a minor bout of bronchitis that’s still going, I think my body is telling me it can’t keep me healthy if I breath crap into it. I’ve been diminishing smoking. Yesterday no cigarettes and so will today it be.
Ive smoke cigars on a daily basis for awhile but i decided to stop and damn the withdrawal and the cough is out of this world
Has been 72 hours since I had two cigarette watching this to help me quit
You can do it
Am an addict thanks 🙌🏻🙌🏿
But your calm voice is more charming
I wish I just quitted immediately 😍
There is still hope for smokers trying to stop :)
Thank you mikaela for a short and brief info on how o am destroying my lungs. I am gonna quit soon hopefully
this is my second day i still didnt smoke its to hard im trying my best...
Well, the Vitamin A tip was quite good, I think. I didn't know that. But that might have explained the great cravings I've had for carrots after quitting smoking. Otherwise I think the only thing you can do, is the ordinary healthy stuff: good food, plenty of sleep, training. There really are no short cuts in life. Good for you to quit smoking! It's bloody great! Big hug!
6 months quit and I haven't coughed up a single thing, and this is after 32yrs as a pack a day smoker. I wonder why?
David Adams you aren’t breathing deeply
I think 🤔 your lungs are dead so they don’t have strength to cough glad you did quite
The lung is too seared to remove the tar
I was wondering about this. I’ve smoked for 20 years and I’ve never coughed anything up, not even a normal icky sick cough. Shouldn’t I be drowning in that ick by now if this was true? Anyway, day four of quitting and yet to cough. I shall see.
Excellent, short video. Thanks
48 days today. Hardest thing ever, but never again will I light a cigarette!
I've said the same thing quit for 10 months in 2021 and 9 months last years.. Quit again yesterday..
When you quit never do it again
Thanks, great information and very helpful tips.
I quit smoking and am now in my 88th day. I only smoked for 5 years but i cant believe how much tar i put into my lungs during those 5 years. I regret it everyday. I am only 24 and fully healthy time to move on in my life.
Hey everyone checking back in I am still smoke free!!! Best decision of my life. Keep hanging in there everyone!!! If I could do it so can YOU!
Adam Stratton you motivate me
G+ LinK: ruclips.net/user/ehowhealth
Kudos for the video content! Apologies for butting in, I would appreciate your thoughts. Have you thought about - Mackorny Smoking Escape Blueprint (Have a quick look on google cant remember the place now)? It is a good one of a kind guide for learning how to quit smoking without the headache. Ive heard some decent things about it and my old buddy Taylor after many years got astronomical results with it.
Adam Stratton how are you doing know adam?
How are you doing bro
Thank you very much for making this video, it makes it alot easier to see whas going on in my lungs and be able to understand it.
Keep it going... you can do it!
Thank you for making this video!
i smoked for 8 years..I quit it strictly on 24 feb, 2014.
it is my seventh day day today and I swear i will never turn back to that road.. I regret for smoking.. Cigarette must be banned if the government of any nation is seriously concerned of their civilians..
Keep up the good work, I'm off them one month now and it is getting easier every day, stay strong.
Today, How do you feel? please reply cause I've smoked for 8 years and I'm on my 3rd day of quitting
Have you stayed smoke free since this comment?
Tobacco is Natural, It's Up To You To Smoke or Not.
they're honest about it all which I really like
Thanks for not using robot voice
🤣🤣🤣🤣
That book is really helpful. I have read it and it helped me to quit. The only downside is, it's too costly here.
This wasn't even about healing your lungs!
+Sara Hopkins Spirulina! Green food! water. Deep breathing! Plants in your house! Jogs/long walks
this is for smokers
@SmoothRide what vitamins do you reccomend?
I know im really starting to hate people its every fucking thing these days
Exactly. Its all about what happens when you smoke not how the heal them after you quit. Except take vitamin a. Then she goes on a huge rant.
Im 34 now, been a heavy smoker since i was 16. 18 years now and i finally quit today! 27/07/20....
I admit i didn't completely watch the vid, skipped through some of it.. But did she mention exercising being good for clearing up the lungs?
Gino Foogle She didn't mention exercise, but I know even walking (briskly) 20-30 minutes a day is health beneficial. It gets the blood flowing. :)
***** yeah, i figured..
I quite after smoking for three years on 2018. I feel better now.
I smoked and smoked for a year. cigs and hookah. Then quit. I used an Ecig for a year following my quit of cigarettes. An Ecig will stop the healing process or delay it substantially. I never did get a smokers cough, i have always coughed if i chose to. I got rid of my ecig a year ago and have only vaped twice since. Both times i vaped it made the tonsil stones come back with a vengeance . I still have the tonsil stones stuck in my throat but they are going away .. It is a long healing process. I have hit the gym for 4 months building muscle.(never was in bad shape) also worked as a carpenter and for coke through the year that i have stopped smoking/vaping.= Lots of exercise. The lead carpenter would call me aqua man , making fun of how much water i would try to drink at work. I have taken the best vitamins and minerals, and even went vegan for 3 months eating fruit and veggies galore. By the way i only drank water and nothing else for 6 months.
So today i can tell you that plaque tonsil stone shit is still hanging out inside me. My advice if you want to heal is to only consume water for a solid year or more. I do cough chunks of stones a few days after a good use of alcohol. Soda will bring that bacteria alive. Soda is the driving factor of stopping my cleanse. Smoking formed pockets for bacteria to build very easily on my esophagus and tonsils. So water/alcohol for a year and a half should allow it to repair in my opinion. Continuing with advice. Exercise and roar like a lion or like corey taylor.. girls be girls... for some reason i feel like girls talk the shit out of their system... lastly cleanse, marijuana if you can, and vitamins. get the body alkaline. To put it blunt my body was not made to smoke. i was the first out of my group to notice the tonsil stones. One of my friends felt like running was golden. I needed much more. If i had not smoked i could vape and drink soda. As of now i need to heal the esophagus and remove my tonsils before i can consider it again. Dont smoke! Chew nic gum and vape and go wild with caffeine before considering to burn one.
PS my hair thinned a lot and i have regained a lot of my once thick hair with vitamins and minerals. Dont be afraid to rub scratch/rub your thinning scalp, it needs that.. Anything is possible guys. My mom survived a pole going through her face on the freeway after a truck ran it over and shot it up through her windshield. Went all the way through and out the back of her neck. I should not have got to see her in the hospital for the sake of bacteria danger but doctors thought she was going to die. So i saw her in ICU 2 days later. She recovered and went back to work 1.5 months later as a manager working 40+ hours a week driving 80 mins to and from work past her accident for 8 years before finding a closer job. Oh and her managers tried to fire her and make her hate life those 8 years. Single mother of 3 to top it off. Im still looking for the fire that my mom burns inside her. She went on the Montel Williams show to share her experience, may be here on youtube if you'd like to hear the story from her. Pretty Incredible.
kalub shaw I thought this video was about "rebuilding " one's lungs?!
U r doing a very nice job its just that a beginner doesnt understand what exactly are its true complications .ive been smoking 2 packs a day since 10 years n its bcoz of pple like u v smokers have a chance to live again god bless n keep ur good work onn
Thank you very much ma'am for this video. I have decided to leave my cigarettes after watching the condition of the "smoker's lung".
I've been smoking for approximately 8 years, and now I'm 5 months smoke-free already.
Wow!
That is some amazing advice! The human body is almost an alien-like machine 🤯
A very useful video..Thank you for making this video..I smoked for 2 and a half years..and I have quitted only 2-3 weeks ago ..and my chest is paining. .can you help me of how to recover??
Ok, we have seen the damage smoking does to your lungs, but besides quitting, how can you improve the healing of your lungs.
Can cardio help repair lungs?
Also get the BreatheEasy Lung Exerciser to quickly tone breathing muscles and open airways.
Your body is amazing, 6 years after having smoked your lungs will be completely healed. Does matter though how long you have been smoking and how much but your body is amazing in reparing. You have to stop first though.
Just quit cannabis after 7 joints a day for like 5 years straight. (Started getting chest pain)
and it is good sign :) your body is cleaning itself. I quit smoking last year after almost 10 years of smoking.. got my chest pain only 3 months after..and it was hard..one moment I thought something is really wrong :D you know that feeling like from Alien movie, that it seems something will erupt form inside out from you :D . Just do not give up :) all these affects can take up to 6 months , depends on many different factors. But soon you will forget about those and one day you will understand that suddenly you don't have any negative affects anymore. It happened to me, like for others too. Best luck !
I'm having chest pains, sharp sometimes too, 10 days after I quit...normal, they came about after re arranging my living room!
Thank you, hit the nail on the head.
Watching this while smoking, but it's ok, after this video, I quit
lol. good luck if you really trying
It's okay, when there's no lung tissue to destroy, you'll quit
I quit smoking for about 6 months form now i feel great !
hi my father is smoking and drinking karuchanti quite pani medicine name please
i've been smoking for 5 years now. last one year has been 1 pack a day. i was an athlete. is there any way i could get my lung capacity back? even if i did. what percentage will be the maximum i could get back?
U smoked while being an athlete oh shii
Stay away from it drink plenty of potable water and herbal teas sometimes too and take hot baths
Thanks Michaela !
so how do i rebuild my lungs then??????????
yah she never said how
1) Time
2) Not smoking or being around cigarette smoke
Note: emphysema (the "popped bubbles") is irreversible.
She didn't say much but she did say vitamins, A especially. Grape seed oil and water.
excellent presentation !
do one on how to stop eating junk.. oh wait
TEST 😂😂😂
This is just superb, I been tryin to find out about "stop smoking kits uk" for a while now, and I think this has helped. You ever tried - Mackorny Smoking Escape Blueprint - (Have a quick look on google cant remember the place now ) ? Ive heard some decent things about it and my co-worker got cool results with it.
Pizza you are too stupid for words
Yes I’m using nicotine to stop eating! I’m using nicotine gum, is this a safer alternative?
@@djdjalien For smoking addiction, yes, use less and less as time goes by, but for an eating alternative... no...
3th day smoke free! on 23/06/2019. I feel good!
Jackal I congratulations!! Keep going!! This is my 1st day 7 hrs into my day no cigarette. I really have no one to talk to about it because my friends all still smoke and doubt I’ll succeed, so if you ever need an ear I’m here 🤞🏼😊
thanks for the video. learnt my lessons.and u must try watching some weight loss videos and learn some lessons too.
I appreciate the advocacy to stop smoking is popular in the health community, I guess people seeing the title, like me have already quit already, I wasn't looking at reasons to stop smoking or the damage done by smoking, but to know other than the quit ive done, what will repair it. I guess it was edited or shortened but apparently the only way to rebuild lungs is to take, 'supplements', which wasn't what I needed to hear. However this was from 2010, videos have advanced, science and tech has too, the amazing cure I had for smoking addiction, will also maybe lead to a way of providing medicine or vitamins directly to the alveoli, as well as helping smokers quit. I don't know if this individual has smoked for years, and quit themself, but after quitting we don't need warnings.
"Smoking is bad" then goes to McDonald's and eats like a hog
At least she has a better life than you :)
@@dezgaming8871 that comment was so smug I bet your the type of person that enjoys the smell of their own farts
Exactly 🤣🤣🤣🤣
Totally agree! I quit 5 years ago with the Alan Carr method...Easy Way, and had a huge success after 25 years of smoking. And I stumbled across this videos headline to see if I could help repair my lungs from the damage..and all I get is a scare tactic for current smokers. How is this video doing anything like its title? It didnt tell me anything to help rebuild the tissue besides...drink more water and quit smoking...*sigh*
ehy... you talking about how bad smoking is, do you know what diabetes is?
Spoken like an addict.
1:11 "this is a slice of a lounge".Did you buy it from the black market?
This women could do with losing some weight - not to mention that she seems to think nicotine hangs about in the Lungs for someone who makes a living as a smoking cessation councillor or whatever she might learn a few basic facts on the subject
5888max she's just trying to help, who cares how she looks
5888max Let me guess, you were going through a nicotine withdrawal when you wrote this. I like her and she's confident with the delivery of her message to help ud quit smoking.
This is not a weigh loss video and the tips she is giving regardless if it's not nicotine and is the other things still in the lung along with damage the tips she's giving are good and she's not wrong about how the lungs can recover and heal after quitting.
Stay firm on your quitting and stubborn nicotine like @5888max will eventually disappear.
5888max lmfao!!!
Good information. However you never explained HOW to attribute to the healing process. On top of the vitamins and oil, any recommended excercises/drills? Breathing techniques? Steam therapy? Specific cardio sets ??? TALK TO US GIIRRRLL!!!
Cheers ✌🏻
Great advice! Thanks.
I am 2days smoke free I do vape instead nicotine free I like menthol flavours as when I use to smoke it was click menthol too. Keep going and don’t give up
I don't smoke that much but got to get back into full health!
I know many ex-smokers that have gotten very good results loosening mucus from their lungs using a lung exerciser to open up the airways. I’ve been using mine for almost six years. It’s called the BreatheEasy Lung Exerciser.
To whoever you are too I thank you deeply from my heart you
can you specify those vitamins and supplements please...it will be a great help...thanx
Been clean exactly a month and 5 days 🎉 feeling great
i smoked from 12 to 18 and now I'm 23 and smoking again, well day 1 of quitting starts today. i have a very bad cough, i can't get doctors to help me. so I'm going to stick to my vitamins and essential oils. hopefully I'll breathe easier soon.
and?
+Bartosz Bartosz doin better now

cold turkey was my method been trying for years, now i haven't said im stopping, but i told myself i have to stop or i'll die very soon and i need to be around for my kids. The extra money i'm accumulating is a very nice bonus
This is day 40 for me and I only had 2 little coughing fits, both of which were brought on by excessive talking. In addition, I have been swimming 2 to 3 times per week. I've heard so much said about how I should anticipate days or weeks of coughing up tar....it just isn't happening in my case. Should I anticipate the coughing episodes happen later on?
Thank you this was helpful
I quit smoking for 2 months. I fell great!! How I did that? Prayers,
determination and never ever look back!
How long did you smoke
@@JayRandomOfficial I'd smoke for almost 12 years..
