The Health Risks of Smoking
Dr. Nallani emphasized that smoking is not just a personal choice—it’s a public health issue. He highlighted the severe consequences of smoking, including:

- Spending on dreams, not cigarettes – Instead of spending money on smoking, use those funds to achieve personal goals.
- Engaging in physical activities – Activities like jogging, yoga, dancing, cycling, and strength training can help manage stress and improve health.
- Stress management techniques – Deep breathing exercises, listening to music, sports, painting, and even video games can serve as alternatives to smoking.
- Seeking support – Joining a support group or talking to friends can be beneficial for those trying to quit.
The Role of Society in Tobacco Prevention
Dr. Nallani highlighted the importance of a strong support system in helping individuals quit smoking. Some key recommendations included:
- Encouraging non-smoking peer groups – Positive peer influence can help prevent the initiation of smoking.
- Promoting tobacco-free zones – Schools, events, and public spaces should be free from tobacco use.
- Parent-teacher involvement – Educators and parents play a crucial role in discouraging smoking among youth.
- Raising awareness on vaping – Many assume vaping is a safer alternative, but Dr. Nallani warned against this nicotine trap.
