The price of a cigarette: 20 minutes of life? Click on the article title to read more.

Smoking kills.

It’s a message most people will have heard. But just how much does smoking affect life expectancy?

In a new editorial, we estimate that on average, each cigarette steals approximately 20 minutes of life.

Prof Alan Boobis mythbusting on the harms of e-cigarettes.

There is no evidence of a link between vaping and popcorn lung.

The chemical that causes popcorn lung (diacetyl) has been banned from use in e-cigs since 2016.
