First off, smoking stunts your growth!.

And 2, its a guarantee that the effects of smoking will catch up to them!. Just ask the cancer patient who is getting chemotherapy, or the young guy that was just diagnosed with COPD!.

It will benefit you later in life as you will more than likely live longer, you will heal better, you will be able to run long after your cigarette smoking friends are only walking, less likely to get cancer, die of stroke or heart attack at a younger age, less likely to ge PAD (peripheral artery disease)etc!.

They will seem fine for awhile, but it will catch up with them if they don't quit soon!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

Congratulations on not smoking!. You're on the right path!.

If they keep smoking, it will catch up with them!. Look around you at the 50 year old smokers, and the non-smokers that age!. Which ones do you think could hike 5 or 10 miles!? Which ones could run a mile!?

Go find ANY of the smokers, and ask them if they've tried to quit!. Ask them if they wish they had never started!. Ask them if they think you should never start!. I bet that 9 out of 10 will tell you yes, yes, and yes to those questions!.

Go find a 70 year old!. Odds are it'll be a non-smoker, because about half of smokers die before that age!. Ask them how many smokers they know that have died!. It will probably be a good number!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

So that's good you didn't choose those vices!
But like the first person said "just ask the person and I'm sure they mean not the ones your age that's just starting out, but the ones that are sitting at those places what's their consequences later on for choosing those vices!Www@Answer-Health@Com

I know smoking is bad for you, but it will not stunt your growth I'v been smoking since I was 15 and drinking coffee since 12!. I am 6'5" tall!. As for marijuana it's not worth a criminal record!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
