There are other health effects than heart issues examined here - e.g. there's cancer, which occurs due to changes in the DNA of your cells, and that is a cumulative process (although e.g. outer skin layers replenish so in 15 years not the same cells, but I am not sure how long lung and other cells take to similarly replenish).
