there are over 4000 chemicals in tobacco. the one that gets people so addicted is nicotine. this chemical is the reason those smokers out there love there cigarettes. it is addicting to a lot of people and it also reaches the brain in 20 seconds and you start feeling the effect about 1 minute after it has found your brain.

another bad one is carbon monoxide which will decrease the amount of oxygen in the body .
