"We understand this is the first study to show objectively that there is a reduction in physical activity compared to those smokers who do not smoke," said study chairman Karina Furlanetto.
Furlanetto said, in addition to the decline in lung function, exercise capacity, and quality of life, smokers were also more likely to experience symptoms of anxiety and depression, as well as walking less than people who do not smoke in everyday life.
Previously, other studies had shown that smokers sleep less than people who do not smoke. The researchers from Berlin's Charite Medical School in Germany that found that 17 percent of smokers sleep less than six hours a day, and 28 percent say having trouble sleeping.
In comparison, only eight percent of people who do not smoke who sleep less than six hours, and only 19 percent reported having trouble sleeping
