What happens to a smoker's body after they
stop smoking?
An often wondered question amongst those who want to stop
smoking, is...
When I give up smoking, how long
will it be before I start to see any effect?
After stopping smoking, your body
starts to recover almost immediately.
Clinical research over many years, has shown that when
someone does stop smoking, their body has a tremendous ability to recover
from the damage that smoking has caused to their body over the years.
Of course, the time it takes to heal will vary from person
to person, depending on age, amount smoked, the number of years spent smoking, the number of years as a smoker etc, but
the following chart should give you an idea of the timescales involved.
