Smoking adversely affects blood clotting by increasing the levels of certain substances that promote clot formation, such as fibrinogen and platelets. It also damages the lining of blood vessels, making them more prone to inflammation and narrowing, which can lead to a higher risk of thrombosis. Additionally, smoking reduces the effectiveness of anticoagulant proteins, further disrupting the balance between clotting and bleeding. Overall, these factors contribute to an increased risk of cardiovascular events and complications related to blood clots.

Why let blood clots dissolve and reabsorb into the body?
Letting blood clots dissolve and reabsorb into the body is essential for natural healing processes. Clots form as a protective mechanism to stop bleeding, and their gradual dissolution allows for the restoration of normal blood flow and tissue repair. This process minimizes the risk of complications associated with larger, persistent clots, such as blockage of blood vessels. Moreover, the body’s ability to reabsorb clots helps maintain overall vascular health.
