The American Cancer Society marks the 37th annual Great American Smokeout Thursday.
It's a day set aside to help smokers kick the habit.
Tobacco use remains the single largest preventable cause of disease and premature death in the U.S., yet about 43.8 million Americans still smoke cigarettes. That's nearly 1 in every 5 adults.
