What kind of disease caused by smoking?

Liver diseases really can't be caused solely from smoking. However, it's very common for people with liver disease (Like say, cirrhosis in heavy drinkers) to have their condition exacerbated by smoking. So, while smoking cannot CAUSE a liver disease, it can make existing ones much worse.


What other body parts does smoking affect?

Smoking can affect various body parts including the lungs (increased risk of lung cancer and respiratory issues), heart (increased risk of heart disease), brain (increased risk of stroke), skin (accelerated aging and wrinkling), and throat/mouth (increased risk of cancers).


What is scerosis of the liver?

Cirrhosis of the liver in the basic "killing off" of healthy liver cells. The causes are linked to excessive alcohol use or abuse and Hepatitus C. What smoking does to the lungs, excessive alcohol and Hepatitus C does to the liver.


How does the consumption of saturated fat affect liver health?

Consuming high amounts of saturated fat can lead to the accumulation of fat in the liver, known as fatty liver disease. This can increase the risk of liver inflammation, scarring, and potentially lead to more serious conditions like liver cirrhosis or liver cancer. It is important to limit saturated fat intake to maintain liver health.


What cells does cirrhosis affect?

Cirrhosis primarily affects hepatocytes, which are the liver cells responsible for important functions such as detoxification, protein synthesis, and bile production. It can also affect other cell types in the liver, such as Kupffer cells (resident macrophages) and stellate cells (which play a role in liver fibrosis).
