stakeholders.

A. Introduction:

I. Attention: Smoking, you might think that it will just affect you. But in fact,
people around you also affected from your smoke. How do you feel when
your family lost their beloved one just because of smoking? Couple months
ago, my uncle died at the age of 58 because of the effect of smoking. He
have a cancer at his lungs which cause him to death. He used to working
very hard when he was young. He start to smoking when he was 13 years old
and he believed that smoking can boost his strength while working. He
suffered from cancer for about half a year. I do remember what he told me
before he died, if I do smoking now, he asked me to stop. If I do not smoking,
just don’t start or even try to smoking. Yeah, he died just like that and left his
wife and 4 children in sorrow.

II. Tie to audience: we might know someone who smoke a lot everyday, don’t
you?

III. Thesis and Preview: Today, I’d like to talk to you about first, the need for you
to stop smoking and the death rate because of smoking. Second, how can
you stop smoking by controlling the nicotine intake.

[Transition into body of speech: I’ll start my point by telling you the need for
you to stop smoking.]
 B. Body:

A. Why do you need to stop smoking? To begin with, it is scientifically proven that
the ingredients inside a single piece of cigarette itself contains a lot of chemical
things that can harm the smoker physically.

1. It is true that smoking may give someone “power” that can boost their
strength. But that the only short term effect and the long term effect will cause
bizarre deadly effects.

a. The deadly effects are lung cancer, breast cancer, heart attack and also
strokes.This diseases are really uncontrollable and until now there is no
cure for cancer. The only way to relieve the pain of cancer is doctor need
to put the patient in coma or give them a high level of drugs in order to
paralyze the long-suffering victims.

b. The lung cancer is cause by the chemical in the cigar such as tar. Tar will
block the veins in the lungs and may cause the cancer to occur. The
breast cancer and heart attack is caused by butane and ammonia from
the cigarette. Then, strokes is caused by cadmium and nicotine that
contains in the cigarettes.

c. Worldwide, tobacco use causes more than 7 million deaths per year. If the
pattern of smoking all over the globe doesn’t change, more than 8 million
people a year will die from diseases related to tobacco use by 2030. This
increasing pattern of death rate among smoker are because of they don’t
have well education and awareness about the danger of smoking.

d. The most alarming issues where there are also underage smokers which
they are highly tend to suffer from chronic diseases because there was a
research where underage smokers are 52% more easier to get those
deadly-effects.
 e. As we know, smoking can also affected the people surround us. Imagine
if you have a child and he/she died because of your bad habit. Will we
blame ourselves? Absolutely not. Second smoker or passive smoker are
more tend to have a lot of chronic disease such as asthma, lung cancer
and also strokes.

[Transition: Don’t you realized that smoking cause a lot of bad effects, we need
to stop this madness. Don’t let our beloved one affected by us and dying. But
how you going to stop this? Let me explain you how.

B. Some of the audiences might have motivation to stop smoking, but they don’t
know how to throw away the bad habit. Gladly, I’m here also to crack the puzzle
in your mind and convince you on how to stop it.

1. In general , the main reason on why you cant stop smoking is because the
nicotine that contains in each pieces of cigarettes. I will roughly tell you what is
nicotine. Nicotiana tabacum, the type of nicotine found in tobacco plants, comes
from the nightshade family. But how this thing can effect your addiction on
smoking? Nicotine is a highly abusive drugs which if only 2mg of it consumed by
human and animals, it can change the physical and mental behavior.

a. Due to this too addictive substances, a lot of smokers fail to stop smoking.
This is because there are a lot of symptoms will be face by the smokers. The
biggest complication on stop smoking is Parkinson. Almost 80% of smokers
who tried to stop smoking are having minor or maybe major hand shaking.
Due to a research, the shaking hands symptoms are because of the lack of
nicotine level in a smokers body.
b. Some of you might have a biggest question that still not solved or answered
by me yet. The question is, how to actually stop smoking safely without
having any effects ? The answer is, the nicotine itself. You cant stop the
nicotine intake instantly. This is because your body need to regulate the
nicotine level in your body to the best dosage.
 c. So, as the solution, some doctors and also researches found the best way to
maintain and stabilize the nicotine level in your blood. They have invented a
tablet that contain minimum level of nicotine. The smokers themselves need
to refer a doctor and the doctor will construct them with the best amount of
nicotine that they needed. Such as, my dad used to smoke 2 packets of
cigarettes a day. When he managed to see a doctor for consultation, the
doctor said he need to consume at least 20 tablets a day. If you are highly
dependent, the doctor will recommend that you take 16 to 24 tablets daily (2
mg tablets, maximum 30 tablets throughout the day). If you are only slightly
dependent, you should take 8 to 12 tablets daily.

d. This method are dermatologically proved and around 30 thousands of

smokers managed to stop smoking in just 6 to 8 months of treatment.

C. Conclusion:

a. Transition: As you can easily see, smoking can cause a critical effects to your
body. But, if you tried to stop smoking that can be one of the most important
decision for your health and your entire life.

b. Summary: I’ve exposed to you why you need to stop smoking and how you
going to stop the bad habit. You might become a lifesaver of your own
generation, stop smoking and be healthy because better late than never.

c. Tie back to the audience: How do you react if the one who affected to chronic
disease because of your fault? At the same time you cant accept the fact and
you might blame others around you? And for the worst thing, what happened
if your underage child start smoking? Wont you feel sad for that?

d. Conclude remarks: I’m going to leave you with beautiful quotes. “So smoking
is the perfect way to commit suicide without actually dying. Then, did you
know that smoking is good for the environment because it kills human being.”
Do think about this. Life is so precious! Live with love, joy, happiness, and
have a healthy lifestyle. Smoking Dangerous.
