Well, here’s a little timeline about some of the more immediate effects of quitting smoking and how that will affect your body RIGHT NOW.    * CigIn 20 minutes your blood pressure will drop back down to normal.    * In 8 hours the carbon monoxide (a toxic gas) levels in your blood stream will drop by half, and oxygen levels will return to normal.    * In 48 hours your chance of having a heart attack will have decreased. All nicotine will have left your body. Your sense of taste and smell will return to a normal level.    * In 72 hours your bronchial tubes will relax, and your energy levels will increase.    * In 2 weeks your circulation will increase, and it will continue to improve for the next 10 weeks.    * In three to nine months coughs, wheezing and breathing problems will dissipate as your lung capacity improves by 10%.    * In 1 year your risk of having a heart attack will have dropped by half.    * In 5 years your risk of having a stroke returns to that of a non-smoker.    * In 10 years your risk of lung cancer will have returned to that of a non-smoker.    * In 15 years your risk of heart attack will have returned to that of a non-smoker. So, you have more immediate things to look forward to if you quit now besides just freaking out about not being able to smoke.</blockquote>
