SMOKING IS INJURIOUS TO HEALTH
Smoking is defined as the act of smelling or inhaling the smoke of a substance, mostly tobacco. There are many reasons for doing so, the most common being cultural reasons or peer pressure. Cigarettes, pipes and hookahs are the most popular methods of smoking and hence also the most injurious smoking elements for health.
It is very important for all those who smoke to keep it in mind that smoking is injurious to health. Smoking has been known to cause many problems. Not only is it a major cause of pollution but it also is one of the leading causes of premature death in developed countries.
It is very essential to know exactly how smoking is injurious to health. Once you have the understanding of how it affects your health, then you are able to counter its affects on the body. Smoking can lead to many kinds of heart and lung diseases, two of the most essential organs of the human body.
Different kinds of cancer are caused by smoking, the most common being lung and throat cancer. Smoking can also decrease the body's immunity system. Due to this, a smoker is more prone to diseases such as bronchitis and pneumonia as compared to a nonsmoker. The commonly used slogans to educate people that smoking is injurious to health are usually right. On an estimated average, smoking takes away between 5 to 20 minutes of a person's lifespan with every cigarette.
Smoking can cause weaker bones and yellow teeth. Wrinkling and bad skin can also occur with time. Stamina is also reduced due to decreased blood circulation leading rapid heartbeat and shortage of breath. There are also many other day to day issues related with smoking such as bad breath as well as bad smell from hair and hands.
The human body knows that smoking is injurious to health; therefore, it tries to counter it at the start. That is why coughing, sore throat, nausea and other negative feelings are aroused in the body when a person tries to smoke the first time.

Smoking is truly dangerous and in some cases it has been known to cause deaths and even as far as infertility in both men and women.
Nice article. Smoking is awful. :( I cannot stand the smell. I can only imagine how bad the taste is. I do not know how people can willingly get addicted to that stuff.
Great work
Now that I am pregnant, I really found this article to be useful. Thanks for this!
Smoking is indeed harmful!
Great warning - especially for the likes of me. I smoke - oh dear!
nice article, like it
thanks for this good write up
If God had meant us to smoke, he would have put a chimney on our head..!:D
lol :P
I don't smoke, good warning!
Stop smoking is not so easy you know. I've tried that, and I ended up in failure.
And not only is it injurious (you like that word, don't you?) to the smoker's health, but also to the health of our environment and the other people and animals around. If someone wants to ruin their own lungs, that's one thing, but to do it to someone else...that just seems unacceptable.
Thanks.

good article. liked it.
Never smoked, never will. Great article.
A timely article.....smokers in my country should read this! This column deserve an A rating.
Great job! Keep it up!
Great article, NYC is trying one block at a time to become smoke free. While I agree smoking and second hand smoking is bad. I think about our rights, and if this in infringing on the right of a smoker. At the same time why should we as a non smoker be left to suck in someone else pollution. It is a touchy topic.
Great article
why smoke when you are there with all your beauty
because of reading these kinds of articles i myself stopped smoking one year back.i am really enjoying myself.nowadays it makes me to think that i am pure and quite different from those who are smoking.
Compelling points...great article!!
I like this article.
Thought-provoking topics
Smoking is indeed bad for your health, but I think that every smoker knows the risks and not solely because they are written on every package of cigarettes, but also because they are sober-minded. Smoking is not like alcohol, the latter can really mess your world up.
Keep on running! long live America!
hey nice column,

the most sad and ironic side effect of smoking is passive smoking.
being a dentist i am in close touch with smoker mouth the smell and problems.
nice column....
Here in Romania everybody votes no smoking. The schools and railways where selling children whores is a great and profitable habit all vote no smoking, but they do greatly smoke drug cigarettes. The government here firmly decided that cigarettes should be a third of their price more expensive but did nothing to prohibit pedofilia and drugs. Brother, everybody has something to say against tobacco from the first moments of a new year. Still, there are people who enjoy a decent last cigarette!
Is ok,i think is nice
