Title: Passive smoking 'damages children's arteries'
Post by: khairulsagir on September 21, 2014, 11:47:12 AM

Passive smoking causes lasting damage to children's arteries, prematurely ageing their blood vessels by more than three years, say researchers.

The damage - thickening of blood vessel walls - increases the risk of heart attacks and strokes in later life, they say in the European Heart Journal.

This is really embarrassing for a non smoker while walking to a road and having smokes from the smokers. I get irritated.
