Hugo Egon Balder, a prominent figure in German entertainment, has announced that he has quit smoking after more than six decades of the habit. The 74-year-old television host revealed that he successfully ended his smoking journey in August of last year, marking a significant personal milestone.
Balder's decision to stop smoking came abruptly after a candid conversation with his wife, who pointed out that his persistent coughing was a concern. This prompted him to consider quitting, leading to a swift resolution to end his 62-year smoking career. He described the experience as a sudden change, transitioning from a lifelong smoker to a non-smoker in an instant.
The impact of this change has been overwhelmingly positive for Balder. He reports feeling healthier now than he did five years ago when he turned 70. Interestingly, he noted that not a single person has remarked on his smoking cessation, even during extended outings with friends. In the past, he would have stepped outside for a cigarette after just a short while, but now he finds that this behavior has gone unnoticed by his peers.
Balder shared his experience during an appearance on the talk show 'Kölner Treff,' where he discussed the benefits of quitting smoking and how it has improved his overall well-being. As he approaches his 75th birthday on March 22, he reflects on this significant lifestyle change with a sense of relief and satisfaction.
As a well-known host of shows such as 'Genial daneben' and 'Tutti Frutti,' Balder's decision to quit smoking not only marks a personal victory but also serves as an inspiration for others contemplating similar changes in their lives. His journey illustrates that it is never too late to make healthier choices.
