What happens to a smokers body after they stop smoking? - How does stopping smoking affect the smokers body?

The Smokers Body

This section covers 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.
