Smoking can lead to many diseases. Like: lung cancer, diabetes, heart diseases, stroke, HIV, AIDS, and much more. Do you still want to smoke?
Nicotine in cigarettes is a powerful, addictive drug that enters your brain within just 10 seconds of taking a puff on a cigarette. It also alters how your brain works.
Tobacco advertising is intended to reassure people that smoking is still "okay" since social acceptability may well be the biggest threat to the industry on this continent. People don't buy products that are no longer "cool". This is why the tobacco industry fights really hard. They know that long-time smokers need reassurance, and new smokers need to be encouraged.
Smoking a cigarette is just like inhaling car exhaust! Tabacco can be harder to quit than other drugs. It also contains about 4000 different chemical compounds that can damage your body!!! People get hooked on smoke easily. Deep breathing and exercise could help you quit smoking. Canadian teenagers smoke over a milllion cigarettes each year!
Once the smoke is inhaled, the lung absorbs it and passes to the blood vessels.
Smoking decreases blood flow to the skin.This leads to leathery-looking skin and increased wrinkling, even when you're young.
Cigarettes contain many chemicals that are toxic and can cause cancer, and damage to your lung or mouth.
Bad Tar
Tar will not only stain your fingers, teeth, and lungs, it also causes throat and lung cancer.
