I like smoking – but I don't want big tobacco to recruit me
The warning labels and smoking ban don't bother me, but I do object to Philip Morris asking me to nag my MP about my 'rights'

We all know smoking is bad for our health... but these photos PROVE it's bad for your looks! Compare the twin that smokes with the one that doesn't if you don't believe us
Researchers interviewed more than 70 pairs of identical twins where one was a regular smoker
The smokers showed considerably more signs of premature facial aging
The greatest impact was on the lower two-thirds of their face where smoking had caused greater wrinkling of the lips and sagging jowls

No fruit for ten years, a junk food diet and a 50-a-day cigarette habit... but David, 66, still insists he's as 'fit as a fiddle'
David Jeffries, 66, calls healthy food tasteless and he feels better than ever
He refuses to eat from his vegetable-obsessed son's allotment
Father-of-two puts 28-inch waist down to dancing in his living room

Does Vitamin E FUEL cancer in smokers? Supplements may speed growth of tumours

Swedish researchers made their findings in mice but believe the results are relevant to humans
University of Gothenburg researchers found cancer spread more quickly in mice with the early stages of lung cancer, that were given vitamin C
Antioxidants, such as vitamins A, C and E, are usually credited with protecting against a host of ills, including cancer

Rollies AREN'T safer than other cigarettes - they're 'at least as hazardous' as any other type, doctor warns

That rollies are more natural and healthier than other cigarettes is a myth
Up to 40 per cent of rollie smokers think their habit is less dangerous
But rollies 'contain higher concentrations of additives than other cigarettes'
Some of these are linked to cancer and respiratory problems, expert warns
