In some studies, at the end of them, I see:

“quitting smoking reduces your chance of dying from all causes.”

So if I quit smoking I’m less likely to get hit by a bus?

    Wounds heal poorly for smokers. People who smoke after getting a tooth extraction can get dry socket.

    I know someone who ate some rancid food, and was subsequently very, very unwell because they literally couldn’t taste or smell that it was off.

    It affects your cardiovascular health so good luck outrunning danger.

    Everything is worse if you smoke, in real time and in terms of what it does to your body’s ability to heal or respond to trauma.

    Don’t smoke. And if you do, try and quit.
