Stop Smoking and Live Longer

We all know that smoking can cause illnesses but now a UK study has found that smoking, put together with high blood pressure and high cholesterol can cause death up to ten years earlier than those who live otherwise healthy lives.

The study, conducted in 1967 to 1970 looked at a collection of middle-aged males. From this collection 42% were smokers, 51% had high cholesterol and 39% had high blood pressure. When the study was followed up in 2005 it was found that already 13,501 had died.

The study concluded that men which had all three risk factors, Smoking, high blood pressure and high cholesterol could expect to live until 74 where other males which are healthy and do not have any of these risks could expect to live up to ten years longer than this.

Ten years is a very long time so if there was ever a reason to give up, surely this would be a very good one!
