Smoking is a bad habit. But does anyone really know how bad? The number of smokers is still so high that it is doubtful, especially that the amount of smokers around us makes it extremely hard to break that habit. That’s why many smokers lull themselves into a false security, repeating the stories about healthy 90-year old smokers. The truth however, is quite different.

First, let’s discuss what you won’t get from smoking. First of all, it is not pleasant. The initial relaxing effects of nicotine wear off soon after you start smoking, leaving you with nothing but an expensive habit. Then, it does not help improve your image. You may feel more adult, but yellow teeth and bad breath make you look sick rather than “macho”.

Death Bought On The Installment Plan

The facts can’t be contested. Every year there are over four hundred thousand casualties of smoking a year in the United States alone. This is almost a hundred times more than died at the WTC attack and ten times more than the US has lost during the 6-year war with terrorism. The moment a smoker lits his or her cigarette, he or she inhales almost five thousand dangerous chemicals. 69 of those compounds are known to be carcinogenic. The risk is practical – over three quarters of lung cancer fatalities in the US is the direct effect of smoking.
