If you are. Please stop it right away.
A lot people got killed by smoking cigarettes or tobacco. Mostly men are the one who is smoking a lot. They are continuing smoking even though that is bad for their health.
The government did that every package of cigarette has a label of warning and also it needs to half the size of the packaging of any cigarettes.
An anti-smoking campaign talking about the bad effects of smoking will do no good to most people. The speaker they get is also a victim of bad effect of smoking and under go a surgery. They will give the testimony about their smoking days and they will tell you that don't ever try smoking. Smoking will lead you to some disease like lung cancer, etc.
The some bad effect of Smoking:
- Become addicted. Nicotine from cigarettes is as addictive as heroin. Nicotine addiction is hard to beat because it changes your brain. The brain develops extra nicotine receptors to accommodate the large doses of nicotine from tobacco. When the brain stops getting the nicotine it’s used to, the result is nicotine withdrawal. You may feel anxious, irritable, and have strong cravings for nicotine.
- Hearing loss. Smoking reduces the oxygen supply to the cochlea, a snail-shaped organ in the inner ear. This may result in permanent damage to the cochlea and mild to moderate hearing loss
- Smoking raises your blood pressure and puts stress on your heart.
- Smoking destroys the tiny air sacs, or alveoli, in the lungs that allow oxygen exchange.
- Smoking causes inflammation in the small airways and tissues of your lungs.
As a non-smoker. I'm happy that I don't smoke and I don't wanna get addicted in smoking. Smoking is just a waste of money. I hope that someday the Philippines is smoke free country so that no one will killed by smoking.
