Smoking has been around for a long time. Many things have changed in the last few decades; for example, you can\u2019t smoke in restaurants, or not even in outdoor seating areas, most of the time. But still, a lot of people choose to smoke, or in many cases can\u2019t stop, even though they might want to.<\/p>\n

The health risks of smoking are widely recognized by authorities and experts. Per the\u00a0Cleveland Clinic<\/a>, smoking can affect \u201ceverything from the appearance of your skin and nails to how your tissues, organs and even your DNA work.\u201d<\/p>\n

It further reads that \u201cthe effects of smoking on your body start the moment you light up a cigarette,\u201d as \u201cthousands of chemicals released from burning tobacco start their damaging journey before you\u2019ve even taken a puff.\u201d<\/p>\n

Smoking increases the risk for many health conditions such as cancer, lung disease, heart and vascular disease, diabetes, and miscarriage. Secondhand smoke also risks damaging you..<\/p>\n

While full-time smoking is very bad for you, even though you, let\u2019s say, would only smoke two cigarettes a day, it turns out to be very bad. Per ABC, scientists have now issued a new major warning about the dangers of smoking to only a few.<\/p>\n

Scientists issue serious warning about smoking \u2018only\u2019 two cigarettes per day<\/h2>\n

Researchers at Johns Hopkins University examined the smoking habits of more than 300,000 adults over the course of 20 years. The study found that even smoking two cigarettes a day gave a person a 60 percent higher risk of death from any cause, compared to those who never smoked.<\/p>\n

The study was published in PLOS Medicine on November 18, and further found that those who smoked had a 50 percent higher risk for heart disease.<\/p>\n

Dr. Jennifer Miao is a cardiologist at\u00a0Yale<\/a>\u00a0University and an ABC News Medical Unit fellow, and said: \u201cTobacco use is a very well-established risk factor for heart disease.\u201d Dr Jennifer Miao, cardiologist at Yale University and a part of the ABC News Medical Unit,\u00a0said<\/a>. \u201cIt really damages the blood vessel lining and it accelerates the development of plaques and coronary artery disease.\u201d<\/p>\n

At the same time, those who stop smoking more or less straight away reduce the risk of health issues.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt\u2019s important that people know that when they stop smoking, their risk goes down immediately and significantly,\u201d Dr. Erfan Tasdighi, an internal medicine physician at Rutgers New Jersey Medical School and a co-author on the study, told ABC.<\/p>\n

\u201cImportant to quit smoking early on\u201d<\/h2>\n

\u201cIt\u2019s important to quit smoking early on, and no amount of smoking is without risk and health consequences,\u201d he added, saying that just smoking a little still can be very bad.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe actually have the evidence \u2026 to say that even less than one cigarette a day can increase different multiple cardiovascular outcomes, and it\u2019s not something that\u2019s clinically insignificant. It\u2019s very, very important for us as clinicians to acknowledge that it\u2019s a lot easier said than done.\u201d<\/p>\n
