It s Never Too Late To Quit Smoking
Can t teach an old dog new tricks? Medical evidence strongly suggests otherwise.
Picking
up a new trick or two is not only possible, it s well worth it.
Now, there is no need to get
offended.
No one is suggesting you are old, or a dog.
It is simply a point of reference.
There is a need, however, to be optimistic about reducing the odds of developing a
smoking-related illness when you quit smoking after the age of 50.
The good news gets even better.
Putting down the cigarettes for good after 50 years of age
(or any age for that matter) will not only improve overall health, but many tobacco-related
conditions can actually be reversed.
According to the American Heart Association, people
between the ages of 60-64 who quit smoking are 10 percent less likely to die during the
next 15 years than regular smokers.
Still looking for that extra incentive to put down the old habit? Pull out a calendar and let s
look at some numbers.
