Martin Dockrell, director of policy and research at Ash (Action on Smoking and Health), said: "Almost everybody knows that smoking can cause lung cancer."The chilling thing about this research is that it shows just how early the very first stages of that process begin - not in 30 years but within 30 minutes of a single cigarette for every subject in the study."The process starts early but it is never too late to quit and the sooner you quit the sooner you start to reduce the harm."The research was funded by the US National Cancer Institute.
