Quitting smoking and vaping is one of the single best actions you can take for your health. Within 20 minutes of quitting, your heart rate and blood pressure decrease. Within 2-3 months, circulation and lung function improve. Smokeless tobacco poses similar risks to your health. Smokeless tobacco users may experience receding gums, tooth loss, and dental problems from using smokeless tobacco. The risk of mouth cancer increases to 50% with smokeless tobacco use and pancreatic cancer risk also increases.

Wellthy wants to remind you that you’re not alone if you’re caring for someone you love. You may be experiencing stress or anxiety, or unsure of what is happening to your loved one. It’s not always easy, but finding healthy ways to manage stress is vital to your mental and physical well-being, as is understanding and responding to your loved one's behaviors.
