If you are still healthy, it is important to stop smoking before you develop an illness. If you have just suffered a heart attack, one of the most important decisions you should make is never to smoke again.
A Heart attack provides you a very strong motive for stopping smoking.

Yes. Ex-smokers are much less likely to fall victim to heart attacks than those who continue to smoke.
You stand to save nearly Rs.10,000 a year if you have been smoking 10 to 20 cigarettes a day. If you have been smoking more than 20 cigarettes a day for 30 years, you would have smoked more than 2 lakh cigarettes!

It should be borne in mind that those who start smoking at 15 years of age run a greater risk of having a heart attack than those who start after 20.

SMOKING AND YOUR HEART
SMOKING AND YOUR HEART
Smoking is one of the main factors which causes heart attacks. Let me elaborate. The coronary arteries provide the heart’s own blood supply and they carry the fuel and oxygen needed for its efficient working. When these arteries become diseased ,especially as a consequence of smoking, their lining becomes thick, their by reducing the flow of blood, especially when the heart has to work harder when its ‘owner’ performs some exercise or gets excited. If there is a large amount of obstruction to blood flow, a part of the heart muscle gets damaged. Such a situation is called ‘Heart attack’.
