Nicotine is the poisonous, addictive chemical in cigarettes and chew. It creates receptors in the brain, stimulating it and relaxing it. People become addicted and keep buying tobacco.
Oral cancer is created by repetitively inhaling or chewing tobacco.Nicotine restricts blood vessels and puts more strain on the heart, creating cardiovascular problems. Periodontal disease can spread throughout the whole body causing clogged arteries and cardio problems.
One out of every five deaths are caused by tobacco.
An average of 400,000 Americans die each year from tobacco.
Tobacco to blame for many serious pulmonary, and cardiovascular diseases.
Tobacco and nicotine are some of the most potent carcinogens and are to blame for a majority of all cancers of the lung, trachea, bronchus, larynx, and esophagus.
Tobacco use also produces cancers in the pancreas, kidney, bladder, and cervix.
Impotency is sometimes to blame from addiction to nicotine because of its ability to reduce blood flow.
Smoking is an important risk factor for respiratory illnesses, causing 85,000 deaths per year from pulmonary diseases such as chronic obstructive pulmonary disease and pneumonia.
Children and adolescents who are active smokers will have increasingly severe respiratory illness as they grow older.
Smoking during pregnancy causes about 5-6% of prenatal deaths, 17-26% of low-birth-weight births, and 7-10% of pre-term deliveries, and it increases the risk of miscarriage and fetal growth retardation.
Cigarettes are responsible for about 25% of deaths from residential fires, causing nearly 1,000 fire-related deaths and 3,300 injuries each year.
Besides, I am a musician and I don't want to run out of breath durring a set!

It´s a nuts , but i smoke Parliament, what about you pals? Try and quit dude, it's a bad habit as our friend Insomniac so painfully pointed out (impotence... ouch!! ) earlier!! Me, I'm a stopping-smoker who has seen the error of his ways and now has managed to cut down to odd weekends here and there. Hopefully I'll be able to quit 100% in the new year. Wish me luck!! Slippy.

I never smoked, but my lungs are probably gone anyway from my mom smoking. Ever since I was 14, people were asking me to buy cigarettes, but I was like, I'm not 18!

I smoke like a blinking chimney. I know it's not big or clever, but I enjoy it, and I don't need no holier-than-thou internet strangers preaching at me. Thanks!

I never Smoked, but most of my friends smoke like crazy. I think its really a problem today, you see 10 year old kids standing in front of the school smoking. Some year later they begin smoking weed and so on.
Since some months in germany they must add stickers on the cigarettepacks saying things like "smoke can kill you" or "Smoke can cause cancer" and add and tv commercial for smoking are forbidden, but i don't think that help anything
