Chinanews, Shanghai, December 13 – According¹ to a research conducted by the medical school of Tongji University, though smokers² know the risks of smoking³, but very few of them can make in their attempt to break themselves of the habit of smoking. 60% of smokers who had tried to give up smoking relapsed into the habit within a year, and only 35% of them eventually made the grade.

50% of those who have failed to stop smoking claim that they can’t refuse the cigarettes offered by their friends.

However, there is a much higher incidence⁴ of lung cancers among smokers in China. The rate in Shanghai is about 1/6. Doctors have found that the incidence of cancers can be reduced to the normal level after one stops smoking for 15 years.
