Smoking does the opposite! Smoking affects your circulation, and makes less blood go to your brain and other body organs. With less blood, the brain does not work as well as it would if you didn't smoke.

Smoking also makes the following parts of your body work less well:

  • Taste
  • Smell (plus if you smoke you smell like smoke)
  • Heart and Blood Pressure (higher blood pressure and more risk of heart attack)
  • Digestion (you make more acid, which gives you more heartburn and ulcers, plus your body can't digest or absorb the same amount of nutrition)
  • Nerves (besides the brain, other nerves get less blood, which means you are not getting the messages passed between body parts efficiently)
  • Skin (drier and less flexible, which also makes you look older and wrinkly)
  • Healing (less blood supply means slower and less efficient healing)
  • Mood (smoking makes you anxious and jittery, no matter what some smokers might tell you)
  • Metabolism (smoking makes some things burn up more quickly than they should, which makes some of your nutrition and medication not work right)

Also, there is the whole addiction thing - smoking is addictive, no matter what you are smoking. Any addiction is going to take part of your brain power away from being smart and turn it toward thinking about the addiction - you waste time thinking about smoking, planning to smoke, worrying about smoking, trying to find something to smoke, thinking about when your next smoke will be .... get the picture?

[IMPROVEMENT]

A lot of what has been written here is true (and NO smoking does not make you smarter in any way, shape or form) however this last paragraph has lead me to believe that perhaps it was not written by the same person as the bullet pointed information (which is actually quite accurate).

"smoking is addictive.." - smoking (as a verb) is in it self not addictive (nor even possible as it is an action) NICOTINE however is.

"...no matter what you are smoking" - this is not true, cannabis for example is not addictive (NICOTINE IS!!! plus a few other chemicals in cigarette smoke) if you smoke dog excrement you are not going to get addicted!

"..you waste time thinking about smoking..." - The hours of my life I have spent thinking about smoking (sometimes I even dream about it!) wtf????

"..planning to smoke..." It is well known fact that in order to smoke you must first make a plan, you must also stick to this plan in order for it to be a success. You may even wish to make a back up plan should your original plan fail.

"..trying to find something to smoke..." - Ice Cream does not work!

In conclusion no smoking doesn't make you smarter; but I am pretty sure you knew this already.

Cigarettes contain chemicals which are harmful to our body, thus causing problems with the body, to be vague. However scientists have conducted experiments on cigarette smoke to see what chemicals are being exhaled and inhaled and there has been traces of cyanide found, however not in large doses quite small doses in fact but who ever has to question if smoking makes you more intelligent in the first place may need to read a few books and get back to school.

As per medical terminology, the only benefit that accrue from Cigarettes is that in Parkinson's disease. Cigarettes tend to pose effects on the Neuro transmitters with there nicotine constituent. They help in transmissions of nerve signals across the synapse in the degenerated neurotic cells. They donot have any other benefits to health as such.
