New UK Study: One Cigarette Shortens Life Expectancy by Up to 22 Minutes

Credited from: THEHILL

  • New research indicates that a single cigarette can decrease life expectancy by 22 minutes for women and 17 minutes for men.
  • This finding contrasts a 2000 study, which estimated that one cigarette reduced life by 11 minutes.
  • The study was commissioned by the U.K.'s Department for Health and Social Care and utilized updated data on smoking-related mortality.
  • Researchers underscore that most smokers underestimate the impact of each cigarette, affecting middle years health, rather than just the final years of life.
  • Caveats in the research note variability in smoking habits and individual health responses to smoking.
