**********

George was a very heavy smoker of up to 3 packs per day it has been said. Some sources say he quit smoking in the 80's and some say it was as late as 1997 or he started again. Another thing that has to be taken into consideration for all of The Beatles is the prolonged exposure to massive amounts of second hand smoke in bars and enclosed arenas, etc. which was indicative to their early career. Also pot smoking is very bad as it has a higher sticky tar-like residue added to the lungs and George was a heavy pot smoker as well a large part of his life.

Cigarette smoking is a horrible addiction - not a "habit" as non-smokers flippantly call it. It takes years to quit and be successfully quit. Sometimes it's too late.
