Week of prevention of consumption of nicotine-containing products

From December 4 to December 10, 2023, the Week of prevention of consumption of nicotine-containing products is taking place. The purpose of the event is to reduce the level of tobacco consumption among both adults and adolescents. According to official statistics, over the years of the state policy aimed at protecting citizens from tobacco smoke and the consequences of tobacco use, the prevalence of smoking in the country has been steadily decreasing. Nicotine–containing products cause the same harm to the body as tobacco products, and myths about their harmlessness are only well-planned misinformation of the tobacco industry. Tobacco smoking is a major public health problem. An adequate preventive action plan should be drawn up based on an understanding of the risk of developing dependence on tobacco use, as well as the most significant population and individual factors in the formation of smoking habits.

The staff of the sanatorium "Krasivo" live in harmony with the motto - "Lead a healthy lifestyle!". This festive week, sports and information events are held in the sanatorium "Krasivo" under various slogans – "Sport prolongs life", "Replace a cigarette with a candy", "Smoking is not fashionable" and others. Doctors have prepared lectures, talks, leaflets, films and videos about the dangers of smoking. Everyone can get specific recommendations that will help to cope with addiction. You can become a prisoner of tobacco very quickly, so the best way is not to start smoking, and if it does happen, then work hard and quit the bad habit, otherwise it will be too late.

Remember that your health is only in your hands!
