Meanwhile, someone who never smoked at all memory tests reach 81 percent. According to Doctor Tom Heffernan, who led the study, these findings will be very useful for anti-smoking campaign.

 
"It's important to know the effects of smoking in everyday cognitive functions, one of which is to lower the memory capacity," he said.
