Tobacco contains thousands of poisonous chemicals; probably the most dangerous is nicotine
Tobacco Smoke will also cause 'Bronchitis'.Bronchitis (pronounced: brahn-kite-uss) is an inflammation of the lining of the bronchial tubes, the airways that connect the trachea (windpipe) to the lungs. This delicate, mucus-producing lining covers and protects the respiratory system, the organs and tissues involved in breathing. When a person has bronchitis, it may be harder for air to pass in and out of the lungs than it normally would, the tissues become irritated and more mucus is produced. The most common symptom of bronchitis is a cough.
Answer2: Smoking cigarettes . . . has been scientifically proven to harm nearly every organ in the body and to increase morbidity and mortality," says The Tobacco Atlas. It is well-known that smoking causes noncommunicable diseases such as cancer, Heart disease, and lung ailments. But according to the World Health Organization (WHO), smoking is also a major cause of death from communicable diseases, such as tuberculosis. Although smoking temporarily relieves the stress of withdrawal symptoms, scientists have found that nicotine actually increases the level of stress hormones.Some studies indicate that over 80 percent of the cigarette smoke particles you inhale stay inside your body.
While the risks increase with each cigarette you smoke, a few effects are immediate. Some people become addicted from just one cigarette. Your lung capacity will be reduced, and you'll likely develop a persistent cough. Your skin will wrinkle more and prematurely. Smoking increases your risk of sexual dysfunction, panic attacks, and depression.
What Tobacco Does to Your Body
Look at the healthy people portrayed in cigarette ads; then compare those images with what smoking actually does to your body. Note the following: Smoking causes mouth and throat cancer.
Heart Hardens and narrows arteries, starves the heart of oxygen, and increases the risk of heart disease by up to four times
Lungs Destroys air sacs, inflames airways, and increases the risk of developing lung cancer by up to 23 times
Brain Increases the risk of stroke by up to four times; causes premature aging and wrinkling of the skin. Teeth become discolored, causes stomach, pancreatic, bladder and kidney cancer.
Like a fish striking at bait, a smoker gets a reward but pays a terrible price
Cigarette smokers have a higher risk of developing cardiovascular disease. Here's why.
Factors like high blood pressure can stretch out the arteries and cause scarring. Bad cholesterol, called LDL, often gets lodged in the scar tissue and combines with white blood cells to form clots. The good cholesterol, called HDL, helps keep the LDL from sticking and building up.
Here are some other problems smoking causes:
Although cigarette smoking alone increases your risk of coronary heart disease, it greatly increases risk to your whole cardiovascular system. Smoking also increases the risk of recurrent coronary heart disease after bypass surgery.
It affects your breathing, your lungs, your weight, your appetite, etc.
You can develop lung cancer and those around you who DON'T smoke can still get lung cancer from inhaling the cigarette smoke.
The nicotene in tobacco raises your blood pressure and heart rate, raises your rmetabolism and can fend off drowsiness and make you more alert, all of which is very short term.
The vaporized tar from a lit cigarette cools and solidifies in your lungs and can gum up the mechanism for clearing phlegm and other pollutants from your lungs. Cigarette smoke also contains a number of carcinogens that take a long time to evacuate your lungs and increase the chances of developing lung cancer, emphazema, and over time, greatly reduces the elasticity of lung tissue and its oxygen absorbing efficiency. The smoke can stain your teeth if you don't practice good brushing habits. The carcinogens can also cause mouth and esophegeal cancer.
So...add to all that the smell in your clothes and car and it is easy to see that smoking is not a good thing.
Cause harmful health issues, mainly lung cancer.
They also make people smell like walking ashtrays ... most unpleasant to be around.
