A little too late, no? By then the damage is done
- happytoexplain 6y agoAh yes, that common saying: It's too late.
- chc 6y agoNot really. It's not like there's a certain amount of smoking you can do and then you max out on the damage you can do to yourself, and any smoking after that point is "free" in terms of health consequences. It's cumulative.

- dwighttk 6y agosecond best is today
- smabie 6y agoWhat are you saying?
- ojnabieoot 6y agoThis comment is recklessly ignorant: within 24 hours after your last cigarette, there is already a significant difference in blood pressure, and within a month the lungs have already begun to heal. Within a year the lungs have healed substantially. After a year, a person's risk of having coronary artery disease is cut in half. Smoking causes permanent damage, but spreading misinformation about "the damage already being done" is really unhelpful.
