Why Should a Sister Wish her Brother be Tobacco Free

If you have a brother who smokes/chews/vapes tobacco, you might be worried about his health and well-being. Any form of tobacco is harmful. Tobacco is one of the leading causes of preventable death and disease in the world. It can damage the lungs, heart, blood vessels, and other organs. It can also increase the risk of cancer, stroke, heart attack, and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). HARMS OF TOBACCO EARLY and LATER are going to show in life!

As a sister, you love your brother and want him to live a long and healthy life. You might also want to protect yourself and your family from the harmful effects of secondhand smoke or tobacco use, which can cause asthma, bronchitis, ear infections, tuberculosis, and other respiratory problems in children and adults.

That’s why you should wish your brother to be tobacco-free. By quitting tobacco, he can improve his health and quality of life. He can also reduce the chances of developing serious illnesses and complications in the future. He can also save money, smell better, and have more energy.

But quitting tobacco is not easy. It takes a lot of courage, determination, and support. As a sister, you can play an important role in helping your brother quit. You can encourage him to seek professional help, such as counseling, medication, or nicotine replacement therapy. You can download the ICanCaRe Tobacco Wellness APP for him and seek help from ICanCaRe Certified Tobacco Cessation Specialists.
