At this stage, the risk of stroke, heart attack becomes lower.
Additionally, if the client had shortness of breath, then it may disappear. Moreover, for a smoker, the risk of developing cardiovascular disease is a few times higher than for a non-smoker. Diseases of the cardiovascular system are the leading cause of death worldwide. Tobacco chemicals, including nicotine, reduce the ability of cells to suppress the development of tumors.
