You can add yet another item to the ever-increasing list of health problems that result from smoking. According to scientists, the risk of late age-related macular degeneration (thinning in part of the retina that causes partial blindness) is higher for those who smoke, or have smoked in the past.

In fact, current smokers are four times more likely to develop the condition than their non-smoking counterparts, and former smokers were three times more likely than those who never picked up the habit.

I have the feeling that, before long, scientist will prove that cigarettes are actually full of malignant little demons that run around your body, destroying everything can find.
