With coronary heart disease the risk of death is 2 to 3 times as great in smokers as in non - smokers and this disease is now the major cause of death in Britain.Bronchitis, lung cancer and coronary heart disease arc the three most serious reasons for not smoking but there are other masons which are also important.
