When you smoke why does your lungs turn black?
Smoking does not turn your lungs black. This is a myth created by educational tools developed to discourage kids from smoking Cigarettes. The pictures you always see with black lungs displayed are actually pig lungs that have been dyed to represent smoker's lungs. Some even have fake tumors sewn into them before they are preserved and plasticized for the kits. While black lung is real, it is related to significant carbon inhalation such as you might see in a coal miner. This does not mean that smoking does not harm your lungs. While there are no outward appearances of damage unless the patient has severe emphysema, dissection of the lungs of smokers will show the alveolar spaces of the smoker contain numerous scavenger cells (macrophages) that are filled with engulfed (phagocytized) particles of impurities and debris. The good news is that damage to the lungs from smoking will be repaired, over time, if a smoker quits. While the black lung images falsely suggest the tissue in the lungs is dying, this is not what happens. The lungs will heal if you stop smoking. It just takes time.
