This event has been organized by Halton Healthcare Services in partnership with the Canadian Cancer Societys Smokers Helpline, Centre for Addiction and Mental Health, Region of Halton, Heart and Stroke Association of Ontario and Lung Association. Dr. Kiran Cherla, MD, of Halton Healthcare Services, will discuss the latest research in smoking and your health and the latest advances in smoking cessation. There are many health implications of smoking, both to individuals and to those around them. In Canada alone smoking kills 37,000 people a year and the annual cost on the healthcare system is estimated to be over $17 billion. Some benefits of quitting can be seen very quickly while others take longer, but over time the results of quit- ting are substantial. One year after quitting smoking you will have a 50% reduction in risk of a smoking-related heart attack. After 10 years a 50% reduction in risk of death from lung cancer and in 15 years your risk of death is equivalent to that of a person who has never smoked! For individuals who are now trying to quit or planning to quit, there are options available. To reserve a seat for this free event or more information, please contact 905-873- 0111 (ext 4379) or elittle@haltonhealthcare.on.ca.
