Women Who Quit Smoking Do Live Longer by John Gever. MedPage Today. October 26, 2012.
A massive study involving 1.3 million women in the UK has confirmed what has been known about men: That quitting smoking, no matter when, has mortality benefits. While the women who quit smoking at age 50 had higher mortality than those who had never smoked, the rate of those who quit was much lower than current smokers. The study was significant because it measured the first generation of UK women who smoked early in life.
