Hazards of smoking
The harmful effects of smoking are not only that it consumes the health and lives of swallowers, but also that it pollutes the air and endangers others。
(1) pulmonary diseases: 38 toxic chemicals are released during cigarette combustion, of which the hazardous components are mainly tar, carbon monoxide, nicotine, dioxins and irritating smoke. The tar was damaged to the mouth, throat, trachea and lungs. The tar deposits in tobacco smoke on pulmonary fuzzy, which destroys the function of the fuzzy, increases the acupuncture and causes chronic changes in bronchial trachea, causing bronchitis, emphysema and lung cancer. According to statistics, 74 per cent of smokers suffer from lung disease after age 60 and only 4 per cent of non-smokers suffer from lung disease after age 60, which is a striking figure。
(2) cardiovascular diseases: carbon monoxide in cigarettes reduces oxygen content in blood, causing related diseases such as hypertension. Smoking causes coronary artery to contract, reduces or obstructs blood supply and causes myocardial infarction. Tobacco use can increase adrenaline, lead to increased heart rate and increased heart loads, leading to more than 20 diseases such as cardiovascular diseases, diabetes, sudden death syndrome, reduced respiratory function and strokes, which affect blood circulation。
(3) cancer caused by smoking: studies have found that smoking is the fastest way to produce free radicals, producing at least 100,000 free radicals per cigarette, leading to cancer and many chronic diseases. A recent 50-year study of 35,000 smokers at tidcliff hospital in oxford, united kingdom, concluded that 11 cancers, such as lung cancer, stomach cancer, pancreas cancer, bladder cancer, liver cancer, oral cancer and nasal cancer, were “significantly related” to smoking. The reason why people smoke are prone to cold is because of the reduced activity of lymphocytes in the human body, leading to cancer. In view of the three major causes of cancer caused by smoking, the sooner we stop smoking, the better。
(4) smoking also results in osteoporosis, with early menopause. Smoking makes the teeth yellow and the mouth stink. Smoking harms people, and passive smokers suffer five times as much. For the sake of your health and that of your family, you should stop smoking as soon as possible, so as not to become a slave to smoke。
(5) intellectual hazards of smoking. Smoking can affect human attention. It has been argued that smoking is not scientifically justified by the idea that it can lift up, eliminate fatigue and trigger inspiration. Experiments have shown that smoking seriously affects human intelligence and memory, thus reducing the efficiency of work and learning。
Smoking is harmful to all, and 53 per cent of children in china are passive smokers, with greater hazards and vulnerability to pneumonia, bronchitis, severe asthma and other diseases. If the current smoking situation continues, the child's intellectual development and the smoking family will pay a great price。
It's a lot better to quit smoking
Those who quit smoking live longer than those who continue to smoke. In general, those who quit smoking before the age of 50 will be 50 less likely to die within the next 15 years than those who continue to smoke。
(1) the relative risk of lung cancer among smokers is 10-15 times higher than among non-smokers. Ten years after a smoker quit smoking, his risk of lung cancer will be reduced by 30 to 50 per cent compared to those who continue to smoke。
(2) the cessation of smoking also reduces the risk of larynx cancer, oral cancer, oesophagus cancer, pancreas cancer, bladder cancer and various other cancers among smokers。
(3) the risk of death from coronary heart disease is twice as high for smokers as for non-smokers. The risk is reduced by 50 per cent within a year after smokers quit smoking. After 15 years of insistence, this risk is close to that of non-smokers。
(4) compared to non-smokers, the relative risk of death from stroke is twice as high. Some smokers can reduce the risk to the level of non-smokers within five years of quitting smoking, while others need to insist on 15 years to receive this effect。
(5) smoking is the main cause of lung disease. When a person quits smoking, the risk of cold, pneumonia and bronchitis can be reduced, and the rate of reduction of lung function as age increases will be close to that of non-smokers。
(6) when you quit smoking, you will not cause family conflict because of smoking。
(7) tobacco use among pregnant women results in an infant and infant mortality rate 25-50 per cent higher than that of normal non-smokers and an average birth weight of less than 200 grams. If you quit smoking four months before pregnancy, these negative effects can usually change.
(8) the cessation of smoking will make it easier to concentrate on learning and working, making your face fermentable and glorious。
Smoking and disease
(1) smoking and respiratory diseases
The cigarette smoke is first exposed to respiratory mucous membranes, which can cause irritating cough while at the same time making them dry and chronically impregnated. In order to keep the mucous membranes of the respiratory tract humid, mucous membrane cell-required excess glucose, these excess mucous fluids are excreted out of the normal sluice, with chronic coughing and high levels among long-term smokers. In addition, the ash particles in the smoke are 50,000 times greater than the particles in the air and contain many harmful substances that can poison, damage and condensate the glucose of the excrete, thus depriving them of resistance and protection. As a result, large quantities of poison and bacteria can enter and remain in bronchial and lung bubbles, which can cause respiratory inflammation. Chronic bronchitis and even pneumoconiosis can result from chronic high levels of smoking。
(2) smoking and coronary heart disease
In recent years, studies at home and abroad on the relationship between smoking and coronary heart disease have shown that smoking is a major stand-alone risk factor for coronary heart disease and that it is associated with other risk factors such as hypertension and hypertension. Research shows that the mortality rate of smokers is 70 per cent higher than that of non-smokers for coronary heart disease, and the higher the number and age of smokers, the earlier they start smoking, the deeper the smoke inhaled bronchial, the greater the risk of coronary heart disease and the higher the mortality rate. According to experts and scholars, tobacco and its burning smokes contain multiple compounds associated with coronary heart disease, mainly nicotine and carbon monoxide, which may be more important than nicotine, since carbon monoxide and haemoglobin are approximately 250 times larger than oxygen, and increased carbon monoxide in blood reduces the ability to transport oxygen for haemoglobin and contributes to organ oxygen deficiency. In the case of coronary heart disease, heart pain and heart infarction can cause sudden death. In addition, nitrogen oxides can be combined with oxygen, reducing haemoglobin content. In addition, sulfacyanate inhibits cytological respiration and promotes cardiac and vascular damage to nicotine, carbon monoxide。
