What your body will improve if you stop smoking immediately
I’m glad I mixed with some “goody goody” friends when I was in my teens. We never accepted smoking as a “cool” way to act. It was pretty stupid anyway to puff smoke from your mouth and having your breath smell like dirty socks. I think if I was a smoker, I would be trying very hard to quit right now because of the annual increment in its price.
Anyway, here’s what happens if you stop smoking immediately - like right now.
- In 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.
