SMOKING


 

Stopping smoking is something you can do to improve your health and quality of life. Smoking is associated with more than 50 different diseases and disorders - many of them fatal. If you smoke you greatly increase your chances of developing coronary heart disease, cancer and chronic bronchitis.
 
Half the people who continue to smoke will be killed by it - losing an average of 16 years of life. Stopping smoking is the single most important thing a smoker can do to live longer.
