What would you achieve if you would stop smoking now, after years of smoking?

According to the American Lung Association, when a smoker quits smoking, his body begins a series of beneficial changes, just minutes after the last cigarette:

 

20 minutes after stopping smoking:

  • Blood pressure decreases
  • The pulse falls
  • The temperature of the hands and feet increases

8 hours after:

  • The level of carbon monoxide in blood drops to normal
  • The level of oxygen in the blood increases and can reach the normal

After 24 hours:

  • The chance of a heart attack or heart attack decreases.

After 48 hours:

  • The ability to feel smell and taste improves

After 2 weeks to 3 months:

  • Circulation improves
  • It's easier to walk
  • Lung function increases

After 1 to 9 months:

  • Cough, congestion of the sinuses, fatigue, and shortness of breath can all improve

After 1 year:

  • The excess risk of coronary heart disease decreases to half of a smoker.

After 5 years:

  • 5 to 15 years after stopping smoking, the risk of stroke reduces to the level of people who never smoked.

After 10 years:

  • The risk of lung cancer falls to half of those who continue smoking
  • The risk of cancer of the mouth, throat, oesophagus, bladder, kidney and pancreas decreases.

After 15 years:

  • The risk of coronary heart disease is similar to the person who never smoked
  • The risk of death returns to a level close to people who never smoked

Plus, when you stop smoking:

  • Your breath, hair and clothes smell better
  • You feel good to have stopped and often more confident in your ability to achieve your goals
  • You have greater control over your life

If you are a woman and stop before you become pregnant, you will reduce the risk of miscarriage and babies of low birth weight

Save money: smoking 20 cigarettes / day currently costs over £2,000 a year.
