It takes time. And a plan. You don’t have to stop smoking in one day. Start with day one. Visit VitruvianHealth.com/quit to take the first step toward quitting. This week several participates graduated from the fall 2024 Freedom From Smoking Clinic at Peeples Caner Institute, as they join thousands who participate in The Great American Smokeout®. Quitting saves the lives of not only of the smoker, but anyone else who might be affected. Did you know? About 8 million people die every year from smoking. About 1.3 million are non-smokers who die from second-hand smoke. Join us for our next Freedom From Smoking Clinic, February 11 - March 25, 2025. VitruvianHealth.com/quit
