and research has found that teenagers who smoke are more likely to die of heart disease decades down the line, even if they quit by the time they’re middle-aged.
And another study out of Stockholm University found that he more unpopular and anonymous subjects were as teens, the increased likelihood that they would go on to become regular or heavy smokers in their adult lives.
