What
Smoking attributes to 30% of all cancer deaths and 87% of lung cancer deaths. In Tennessee alone, 1 out of 4 residents smoke—an estimated 1 million Tennessee adults are smokers—and nearly 10,000 Tennesseans will die each year from smoking-related illnesses (Division of Health Statistics). Smoking is the main culprit in heart disease, strokes, bronchitis and emphysema, and gastric ulcers. Need more reasons to stop smoking?
The Cancer Institute’s Chest Service and The American Lung Association of Tennessee have teamed up to stomp out smoking. “Freedom From Smoking” is an eight-week clinic that has become the "Gold Standard" of smoking cessation programs.
Call 865.305.8577 today to stop smoking. The next class will start on May 15th at 6:00 p.m. at the Cancer Institute 4th floor conference room.
