On Health and Organic Living

  • Ask Dr. Weil for information on wellness living
  • Quit smoking or want to quit? Check out this site to calculate your financial savings and health benefits. As of 4/26/2009 I have NOT smoked: 203, 000 cigarettes and I have saved: $41,403.54. At 5 minutes per cigarette I have increased my life expectancy by 2 years. Whooohoo!
  • I got a great deal of help by reading and posting to this Quit Smoking Newsgroup.
