There used to be a time when the words on the cigarette box were written like this: “Government Warning: Cigarette smoking is dangerous to your health.” Now, several governments around the world require a much simpler phrase, and it cuts to the chase quite effectively: “SMOKING KILLS”.
Just imagine the hundreds of billions of cigarettes being smoked each year in the United States alone. And if you think about it, that is just the number for a single country. What about the rest of the world? It’s a scary thought when you think about it.
People smoke for entirely different reasons. Some try it just for fun, others try it because they feel that they look cool doing it, and others still do it because of habit. Whatever the reason, it still remains a habit that can kill you slowly. The conditions will not manifest themselves at first, but don’t wait until the entire world squeezes on your chest.
A cigarette, while seemingly innocent at first glance, contains a load of carcinogenic substances that can kill you in large quantities. Some of these substances may be found only in traces, but they collect themselves within your body. One day, your body wouldn’t be able to handle the stress of these accumulated toxic substances, and this is where serious degeneration of your body begins.
Look at pictures of the organs before and after smoking. Meet other people whose families have died because of lung cancer caused by smoking. The evidence is everywhere, and you don’t need to go very far to see it.
