The third Thursday of November is No Smoking Day.  Nineteen percent of those who smoke die as a consequence of smoking.

If you give up smoking by the age of 40 or 50, you will add ten years to your life.  As soon as you put out your last cigarette, your blood pressure and blood oxygen level will begin to normalize, while the risk of sudden cardiac death decrease from the day after.  Though recovery will take months, your lung capacity will continually increase, your bronchi will clear and the chronic cough decrease and eventually stop altogether.  After your first “clear” year, the risk of a heart attack and after five years, the risk of lung cancer will decrease by one half.  In fifteen years you will reach the health condition and risk level of the person of the same age who has never smoked.
