best thing that you can do for your short and long term health. Every cigarette that you smoke fills your bloodstream with oxidised LDL cholesterol, increasing the chances that your arteries will clog up with plaques and give you a heart attack. </p>
<blockquote>
<p class="health"><em>In fact, smokers are two to three times more likely to have a heart attack than non-smokers, whilst 80% of all lung cancer deaths are due to smoking</em>.</p>
</blockquote>
<p class="health">By quitting smoking today, and adopting a healthy lifestyle you can increase the strength of your heart to cope with existing plaques, and also substantially reduce the risk of dying from lung cancer. </p>
