INTRODUCTION….
ACKNOWLEDGMENT
 For your acknowledgment, Smoking, especially after the
introduction of tobacco, was an essential component of
different cultures and became integrated with important
traditions such as weddings, funerals and was expressed
especially in literature and poetry. Smoking is a “practice
where a substance, commonly tobacco, is burned and the
smoke is tasted or inhaled”. It means a person who smoke is
going to kill himself, because he is inhaling smoke of fire. In
other words we can say that he is going to suicide. The Hubly
Bubly and cigarette are common methods of smoking in all
over the world.
DEFINITION
 Smoking is the inhalation of the smoke of
burning tobacco encased in cigarettes, pipes,
and cigars. Casual smoking is the act of
smoking only occasionally, usually in a social
situation or to relieve stress. A smoking habit
is a physical addiction to tobacco products.
Many health experts now regard habitual
smoking as a psychological addiction, too,
and one with serious health consequences.
ADVANTAGES OF SMOKING
 Makes me feel really relaxed when I smoke, and I
know that everyone says it is so bad for you, but I
only do it when I am extremly agitated, studiying,
when I was in school in early years,or when
extremly angry.I guess I angry all the time, so I am
basically two packs a week.No joking with you.
There is NO benifiet to smkoing. If ANYONE tells
you there is, THEY ARE LYING TO YOU... One
friend of mine would smoke so he would not eat, and
he died of lung cancer, but I bet she was the
skinniest one out in the grave yard...
DISADVANTAGE OF SMOKING
FOR A SHORT TERM
 Scientists and doctors know so much more about the
effects of smoking today than ever before. They
know smoking causes immediate effects on the
smoker's body. It constricts the airways of the lungs.
It increases the smoker's heart rate. It elevates the
smoker's blood pressure. The carbon monoxide in
tobacco smoke deprives the tissues of the smoker's
body of much-needed oxygen.
FOR A LONG TERM
 Smoked tobacco in the forms of cigarettes, pipes,
and cigars causes lung cancers, emphysema, and
other respiratory diseases. In fact, smoking causes
ninety percent of all lung cancer cases. Twenty
percent of heavy smokers get the chronic lung
disease called emphysema, which causes the
narrowing, and clogging of the airway passages in
the lungs. This disease is seldom seen in
nonsmokers. Smokers are also at least four times
more likely to develop oral and laryngeal cancer than
nonsmokers.
 Smoking contributes to heart disease. It
increases the risk of stroke by nearly 40%
among men and 60% among women.
Smoking is an addiction. Tobacco smoke
contains nicotine, a drug that is addictive and
can make it very hard, but not impossible, to
quit. More than 400,000 deaths in the U.S.
each year are from smoking-related illnesses.
Smoking greatly increases your risks for lung
cancer and many other cancers
 Smoking in Old age
 Smoking in Youth
SECOND HAND SMOKE
 Smoking harms not just the smoker, but also family
members, coworkers and others who breathe the smoker's
cigarette smoke, called secondhand smoke.
 Among infants to 18 months of age, secondhand smoke is
associated with as many as 300,000 cases of bronchitis and
pneumonia each year. Secondhand smoke from a parent's
cigarette increases a child's chances for middle ear problems,
causes coughing and wheezing, and worsens asthma
conditions.

 If both parents smoke, a teenager is more than
twice as likely to smoke as a young person
whose parents are both non-smokers. In
households where only one parent smokes,
young people are also more likely to start
smoking.
PREGNANT WOWEN
 Pregnant women who smoke are more likely
to deliver babies whose weights are too low
for the baby's good health. If all women quit
smoking during pregnancy, about 4,000 new
babies would not die each year.
 Smoking in Pregnancy
 Effects are shown in the visual :
EFFECTS OF SMOKING
 One in two lifetime smokers will die from their habit. Half
of these deaths will occur in middle age.
 Tobacco smoke also contributes to a number of cancers.
 The mixture of nicotine and carbon monoxide in each
cigarette you smoke temporarily increases your heart rate and
blood pressure, straining your heart and blood vessels.
 This can cause heart attacks and stroke. It slows your blood
flow, cutting off oxygen to your feet and hands. Some
smokers end up having their limbs
amputated.
 Tar coats your lungs like soot in a chimney and causes
cancer. A 20-a-day smoker breathes in up to a full cup
(210 g) of tar in a year.
 Changing to low-tar cigarettes does not help because
smokers usually take deeper puffs and hold the smoke in
for longer, dragging the tar deeper into their lungs.
 Carbon monoxide robs your muscles, brain and body
tissue of oxygen, making your whole body and especially
your heart work harder. Over time, your airways swell up
and let less air into your lungs.
 Smoking causes disease and is a slow way to die. The
strain of smoking effects on the body often causes years
of suffering. Emphysema is an illness that slowly rots
your lungs. People with emphysema often get bronchitis
again and again, and suffer lung and heart failure.
 Lung cancer from smoking is caused by the tar in
tobacco smoke. Men who smoke are ten times more
likely to die from lung cancer than non-smokers.
 Heart disease and strokes are also more common
among smokers than non-smokers.
 Smoking causes fat deposits to narrow and block
blood vessels which leads to heart attack.
 Smoking causes around one in five deaths from heart
disease.
 In younger people, three out of four deaths from
heart disease are due to smoking.
 Cigarette smoking during pregnancy increases the
risk of low birth weight, prematurity, spontaneous
abortion, and perinatal mortality in humans, which
has been referred to as the fetal tobacco syndrome.
EFFECT OF SMOKING
SMOKING CAUSES
 Smoking causes excess of harmful elements in the human
body.
 According to a survey, a single cigarette contains approx.
4500 elements which can cause different types of cancers.
 Almost everyone knows that smoking causes cancer,
emphysema, and heart disease; that it can shorten your life by
10 years or more; and that the habit can cost a smoker
thousands of dollars a year. So how come people are still
lighting up? The answer, in a word, is addiction.


There are over 4,000 different addictives in cigarettes and that is not counting the tobacco.
A lot of these cigarette addictives can be found in other products such as food and while
they were tested for other uses, these addictives in your cigarettes were never actually tested
to see what would happen when they were burned.
Cigarette Addictives:
 Below I will list just a few of the addictives that are inhaled with each puff of a cigarette:
 DDT - An insecticide that was eventually banned
 Acetone - This is usually found in nail polish remover
 Butane - You can find this in your lighter fluid.

 Ammonia - Used to clean your home and the smell is awful and overpowering to the senses
 Benzene - This product can be found in synthetic rubber and also used to make dye products
 Arsenic - Another deadly poison that is often used to kill rats
 Nicotine - Nicotine was a poison that was once and may still be used to kill roaches
CONTENTS OF CIGARETE
HOW TO STOP IT
 Health Education
 Ban on advertisements for the promotion of smoking.
 Ban on smoking in public places.
 Under-age sale of cigarettes should be prohibited.
 Ban on smoking in public transports.
 Ban on smoking in government offices/institutions.
 Encourage advertisements on Quitting smoking.
 Government should provide recreational facilities for the
common man.
 Text books of all the basic education must include lessons on
smoking hazards.
 Workshops and Seminars should be arranged periodically to
increase awareness in the community regarding the ill-effects
of smoking.
 Warning wordings should be prominent on the pack of
cigarette.
 Anti-smoking banners and posters should be displayed in
academic institutions.
 Awards should be given to those who take active part in the
Anti-smoking campaigns.
 Smoking during driving should be banned.
 Quit smoking by eliminating the exogenous stress factors,
like un-employment.
 Replace tobacco crop cultivation with other cash crops.
 Taxation should be increased and be imposed on item basis,
not on the sale value on all tobacco products (in order to
make it out of reach of the buyer).
CONCLUSION
 From the above illustrations and statements, it is very much clear
that smoking is certainly one of the major public health problems
all over the world and we need to control it at all levels of life, until
it takes us down to the ground.
