You lower the risk of heart attack
We all know smoking has many negative effects on our bodies. We can counteract some of them, however, the moment we stop doing it.
For instance, the risk of heart attacks starts declining pretty soon after you’ve quit this bad habit, due to the improved oxygen delivery and reduced inflammation in the body. Therefore, if you manage to stay smoke-free for one year, you lower the cardiac effects and your risk for heart attack by half.
If you remain steadfast in your commitment, in 15 years you reduce the heart attack risk to that of a non-smoker!
