Smoking Is Not Good For The Body

To begin with, many would say that smoking is an atrocious habit, no matter what. By smoking one is essentially killing oneself from the inside out. Smoking has an impact on the smoker and those around the smoker. Smokers are harming the environment through second hand smoke, by putting toxins into the air that we all breathe on a constant basis. Imagine a mother driving in a car with a baby and all the windows are closed. That baby is inhaling all the mother’s smoke. As a result of smoking, smokers smell of cigarette smoke. This smell transfers into clothing and permeates the smoker’s house. Additionally, smoking causes yellow stains on

Smoking is an activity that has been around for many years for people to use and adapt into their lifestyle. It is a tool that many people use to help reduce the stresses of life and put them in a comfortable position that enables them to cope with the hectic lifestyle they are living. However, smoking has been scientifically proven to cause many types of cancer, the most common being lung cancer resulting in numerous deaths across the United States. According to BBC, "Smoking is a greater cause of death and disability than any single disease" (BBC, 2). Evidently, the benefits and drawbacks of smoking have been debated for many years, and only recently have some countries have placed a ban in public places such as Britain and the United

One of the largest and most problematic health issues in our society is smoking. Smoking is currently the leading cause of death in our country, due to its harmful and addicting contents, such as nicotine and tobacco. Although millions die from it each year, smoking is the single most preventable cause of death as well. Without smoking, a tremendous amount of money and lives will be saved. I think that our country should ban smoking and the production of cigarettes in order to maintain a healthier nation, help save the environment, and prevent the almost 1000 deaths that they cause in fires each year.

Smoking cigarettes causes more deaths than HIV, illegal drug use, alcohol use, motor vehicle injuries, and firearm- related incidents combined. Some people say that banning cigarettes would be bad because the government makes a lot of money from the tax revenues. Or that it would increase illegal trade. But based off of the fact that millions of people die each year, cigarettes should be banned because it causes many health issues, it affects a lot of people, and it costs the government a lot of money.

If somebody is smoking they can get many different types of diseases and cancers. It is proven that somebody who smokes is 15 to 30 percent more likely to get lung cancer. That is a crazy amount more than a person not smoking. Tobacco itself also has around 7,000 chemicals. That many chemicals are not very good for your body. Around 70 are known to cause cancer in humans and animals (CDC). Ammonia(used to treat waste water), Arsenic(rat poison), Acetone(nail polish remover), Cadmium(batteries), Nickel (Smoker News World) are only a few of the dangerous chemicals in tobacco. If that does not scare you away from smoking I don't know what will. All of those chemicals listed are extremely poisonous. In our culture it is unethical to have somebody kill themselves. But this is still happening right under our noses, literally. Thousands of people die because of smoking. So why don't why just ban smoking and stop these people from killing

Spending money on smoking is too much and leads to nothing, and there are no benefits that people can get from smoking. Smoking can hit personal finances and smokers are burning their money for no reason. Instead of using money to get cigarettes, people can donate to non-government organizations to wipe out poverty and change people’s lives. Smoking is a major factor that is destroying the environment. Smoking cigarettes is bad for the air. People who do not smoke have to breathe the bad air around the smokers. Smoking needs to be banned in public to let other people breathe the fresh air. Most Americans are exposed to outdoor and indoor air that can cause cancer and other serious health problems. Smoking is a serious problem that needs to be taken care of. If we want a strong environment, clean environment, and a good public health, we need to ban smoking once and for all.

Have you ever been in a situation where you try to walk in a building, but there are people smoking at the entrance, and you does not want to breathe in those toxic airs. Therefore, you try to hold your breath and walk pass them to get inside the building. Reason why I mention this, it is because Smoking is one of the major cause of preventable deaths, smoking also causes many illnesses for people. According to the Center Of Disease Control and Prevention reported that 46 million people in the American who are age of 18 and older smoke cigarettes, and there are more than 480,000 smoking related deaths per year in the United States. Smoking is does not just put the smokers at risk, but also people around them. According to the Center Of Disease Control and Prevention since 1964, approximately around 2.500.000 non- smokers died because of exposure to second hand smoke I think that smoking should be banned completely in home, worksite, and public place around the world to reduce the cause of deaths and pollution.

“Smoking is hateful to the nose, harmful to the brain, and dangerous to the lungs.” (King James I). Some people think the smell of smoking is awful, and it has been proven by doctors that smoking can harm us. Smoking is harmful to the brain, which can make you lose your concentration and smoking also can cause many diseases like cancer. Some non-smokers believes that smoking should not be allowed in the U.S, but smokers believe it should be allowed in the U.S. Smoking should be banned because it's hazardous to one’s health, expensive, and harmful to nonsmokers.

There is many reasons why you shouldn’t smoke and why it should be outlawed. Now I am going to explain to you the mental aspect of smoking and the damage that smoking can make a person endor if or while they smoke. One way smoking can affect someone's mental health is by making you always have urges to go out and smoke or to leave whatever event you're at to go smoke and if you can't smoke you start to have withdraws which ties into physical health of smoking.”If you have a mental health problem, you probably smoke more than other people so your smoking is even more likely to harm you. You are more likely to be one of the 100,000 people in the UK each year who are killed by smoking. You are more likely to die early. You will, on average, die about 10 years earlier than you would have done if you had not smoked. But - half of smokers die 15 years earlier than they should while a quarter die 23 years earlier.”(Dr Ken Checinski and Dr Jonathan Campion)” . Smoking is the second largest killer of people with mental health issues. Some of the chemicals in cigarettes have been known to help trigger mental illnesses such as schizophrenia. According to Dr. James MacCabe “They found that 57% of people treated for a first episode of psychosis were smokers. Psychotic patients were three times more likely to consume tobacco than individuals without severe mental illness.” (Dr. James MacCabe). Professor Sir Robin Murray, from the Institute of Psychiatry, Psychology and Neuroscience at King’s College, said: “Excess dopamine is the best biological explanation we have for psychotic illnesses such as schizophrenia. It is possible that nicotine exposure, by increasing the release of dopamine, causes psychosis to develop.” (Sir Robin Murray). Excessive smoking can lead to the drug dopamine not being produced in certain parts of the brain due to the chemicals in the cigarettes. Those are some ways smoking can

Way back in the 50’s, smoking a cigarette was seen as one of the best things you could do. Nowadays, it’s seen as one of the worst. It’s been proven time and time again that cigarettes are unhealthy, and they should be banned. Though some still think smoking is acceptable, it’s very harmful to your well-being. Cigarettes should be banned because of the multitude of health problems they cause, including lung cancer, and because they can be extremely addictive.

In conclusion, smoking should be banned because it is killing people everyday. Smokers die about 10 years earlier than non-smokers on average. 10 years are taken from them by cigarettes. So to anyone who smokes, quit smoking, do everything possible to get rid of the habit that can take over someone's life. Non-smokers write letters, sign petitions and stay away from smoking, this can be

First, smoking cigarettes can cause health problems. In some severe cases, people sometimes have to get their teeth removed, and smoking can cause lung cancer and premature death. Studies show the death rate for smoking cigarettes has gone up throughout the years and people aren’t doing anything about it or given it the attention it needs. Not only can smoking be harmful to the smoker, but to the people around that are still breathing in the harmful chemicals.If cigarettes

Smoking is not good for people it is a bad way to make yourself feel good. I do not like smoking because a family member of mine smokes and he says he does it to relieve stress. When he comes to visit he smells just like he just had a cigarette. My grandmother also smokes and I keep telling her “it is not good” and she says I am old I can do whatever I want. One time my family and I were on the road to Houston and my grandma found out and told my mom to bring her some cigarettes. My mom quickly said no and we did not go visit her. I believe no one should smoke. Smoking is not good for anyone to do, they should just ban

Did you know that three out of four teens in high school admit to doing or being addicted to drugs? A majority of the teenagers today will more than likely face short or long-term health issues from the usage of “drugs,” preferably marijuana. What kind of short and long-term health issues you may ask? Well short-term health issues would include drowsiness/relaxation; slowed reaction time; problems with balance and coordination; increased heart rate and appetite; problems with learning and memory; hallucinations; anxiety and panic attacks! On the other hand we have long-term health issues which include mental health problems, chronic cough, frequent respiratory infections. Smoking weed is a problem among teenagers today that tend to take on health issues in the body such as danger to the adolescent brain, symptoms of chronic bronchitis, lung irritation and reproduction effects.

First, the smoking ban can play a very important role in personal health. As known, tobacco smoke contains at least three kinds of dangerous chemicals: the tar, nicotine and carbon monoxide, tar is made up of several kinds of material blending material, will be concentrated into a viscous material in the lungs. Nicotine is an addictive drug that is absorbed by the lungs, primarily affecting the nervous system. Carbon monoxide reduces the ability of red blood cells to transport oxygen throughout the body A person who smoked 15 to 20 cigarettes a day was 14 times more likely to die of lung cancer, mouth cancer or throat cancer than non-smokers. It is four times more likely to die from esophageal cancer than non-smokers. It's twice as likely to die of bladder cancer. It's twice as likely to die of a heart
