That is life

Try to stop smoking as soon as possible

   Obviously, quitting smoking improves health. HOWEVER, there are people who need to have a very negative health to decide. For them and for smokers who are slow to abandon the practice, it will be much more difficult to return to normal, says Donald Taylor Jr. of Duke University Medical Center.

    The message should be as: better to leave now than later. The result will be a longer and healthier life.

    During the above studies, participants were asked every two years to rate their health as excellent, very good, good, adequate or poor. They were also asked if they were smokers (and how) or if they had been (and how much time had passed since I left).

    Soon it became clear that smoking has a clear relationship with both remaining life years as the years of healthy life that we will. The result is not surprising, but what is interesting is that people who had quit smoking 15 years ago (before 35 years) reported having as healthy as those who had never smoked.

    Continuing to smoke a lot between 50 and 54 years will mean for men to lose about two years of healthy life and also two years of life expectancy. For women the figures are 1.66 and 1.44 years, respectively.
