Smoking can lead you to Death!!



 Smoking can lead you to Death!!



Smoking is one of the most common forms of recreational drug use.

Nowadays, Tobacco Smoking is the most popular form of smoking and is practiced by over one billion people in the majority of all human societies.

Smoking is one of the leading causes of preventable death globally.

Smoking one cigarette a day results in a risk of heart disease that is halfway between that of a smoker and a non-smoker.

What diseases can happen to us if we smoke??

The diseases that can be caused by smoking are Vascular Stenosis, Heart Attacks and also Lung Cancer. And also for Pregnant Woman who smoke, it can lead to ADHD (attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder) to a baby.



There are mainly 5 reasons that Smoking is bad for us!!





 1.   Smoking causes various Cancers. For examples, Bladder Cancer, Kidney Cancer, Mouth Cancer, Stomach Cancer, as well as some types of Leukaemia, Cancer of Noses and of course, Lung Cancer!!


      2.       Leads to formation of Wrinkles and premature Ageing!  Did you know that if you quit smoking, you can actually cut down the appearance of fine lines and other signs of ageing by half? Yes, you can! How it happens is that the chemicals present in cigarettes cause the fine capillaries under your skin to contract and constricts the blood flow to your skin. This lack of blood and fresh oxygen causes your skin to look dull and lifeless.


     3.       Makes your bones Brittle! A large number of studies have found that smoking leads to loss in bone density by increasing the amount of calcium leeched from the bones. This loss in bone density leads to early onset of osteoporosis (especially in women since smoking affects the amount of oestrogen produced), joint pain and even loss of teeth due to excessive loss of bone density in the jaws.





     4.       Stains your teeth! Cigarettes contain tar, a chemical that coats your teeth lending them a yellowish tinge. This tar is difficult to clean with brushing and usually forms permanent stains on a smoker’s teeth.



     5.       Can make you go Blind!! Smoking has long been known to cause heart disease and lung cancer; however many people don't realize that smoking can lead to vision loss. Studies show smoking increases the risk of age-related macular degeneration, cataracts, glaucoma and diabetic retinopathy and Dry Eye Syndrome.
