Good idea to quit: You have an excellent chance to clear your body from all the complications associated with smoking. Quit now before the consequences are irreversible. You are young and healthy, so by quitting now you are giving your body a good chance to stay healthy and you are giving yourself a good chance at adapting a more healthy lifestyle. It's never too late to quit smoking.
