Smoking affects the life span

          Smoking reduces life duration by seven to eight years. More than 300 people dies every day in the UK as a result of smoking, many are comparatively young smokers.

         The number of people under the age of 70 who die from smoking-related diseases exceeds the total figure for deaths caused by breast cancer, AIDS, traffic accidents and drug addiction. Non-smokers and ex-smokers can also look forward to a healthier old age than smokers.
