Essentially, Great!: After 1 year, your chance of coronary heart disease is reduced by 50%. After 5 years your risk of stroke becomes equal to that of a non-smoker and after 10 years your risk of lung cancer among other cancers is reduced by about 50%. And, 15 years after you quit your risk of coronary heart disease becomes equal to that of a nonsmoker. The few slip should not change it too much. You're GOOD!
