As it is known, smoking women try to explain the unwillingness to get rid of this addiction by the danger of overweight. But scientists of University College in London declare with all responsibility: the woman's belief that smoking helps to control the weight, is absolutely groundless myth. At least the results of long six-year research show it.

Not less interesting and unexpected announcement experts of the Italian institute have made against smoking. According to the data received by them, the face skin of the given up smoking woman for 9 months looks younger on ... 13 years! During the experiment from participants it was required to give up smoking and do medical tests each three months. Results of experiment have shown that the skin of participants of this research has looked younger on the average for 13 years, and their weight has thus appeared less on some kilos.

It is necessary to mention about the work of scientists from the Harvard medical school in Boston which have established that refusal of smoking almost instantly promotes good health of the person. As to risk of death within five next years it also decreases on 13 %. The research lasted a period from 1980 to 2004, and one hundred thousand of women had participated.
