1. The hazards of smoking on active and passive smokers
the
magnitude of the dangers of smoking is not unconscious by smokers,
because on every packet of cigarettes, there is now a mandatory warning
from the Government that read: "smoking CAN CAUSE CANCER, heart attacks,
impotence, and DISORDERS of PREGNANCY and fetus." But, often strong
dependency against smoking makes people unwilling to stop sucked it up.
According to the study, it was found that would accept the negative
effects of smoking is not just active smokers, but passive smokers will
receive negative consequences of smoking. And thus the effects that is
received by the passive smokers would be far more dangerous than the
active smoker again.
As for some of the dangers and repercussions on the impact by smoking for the health of the body, such as:
a. lung cancer
is known to about 90 percent of lung cancer cases are
caused by smoking. This is because the smoke will go in inhalation into
the lungs. Substances from cigarette smoke, this will stimulate the
cells in the lungs become abnormally growing. An estimated 1 in 10
moderate smokers and 1 of 5 heavy smokers will die of lung cancer.
b. bladder cancer
bladder cancer occurs in about 40 percent of smokers. Study finds high
levels of 2-naphthylamine compounds in cigarettes be carcinogens which
leads to bladder cancer.
c. breast cancer
women who smoke
are more at risk of developing breast cancer. The results of the study
showed women who started smoking at the age of 20 years and 5 years
before she got pregnant the first time greater risk of developing cancer

of the esophagus. About 80 percent of cases of cancer of the esophagus
has been linked to smoking.

even though cigarette smoke gets into the
lungs, but there's some smoke that engulfed so that increases the risk
of cancers of the gastrointestinal (digestive).
g. kidney cancer
when someone smokes, then smoke containing nicotine and tobacco will go
into the body. Nicotine along with other harmful chemicals such as
karbonmonoksida and tar cause changes in heart rate, respiration
circulation and blood pressure. Carcinogens that are filtered out of the
body through the kidneys is also changing the cell'S DNA and damage to
kidney cells. This change affects renal function and trigger cancer.
h. oral cancer
Tobacco is the leading cause of oral cancer. Note 6 times larger
smokers suffered oral cancer compared with people who do not smoke, and
people who smoke tobacco smoke without risk 50 fold greater.
i. throat cancer
smoke inhaled before entering the lungs will pass through the throat, hence this cancer will be related to smoking
j. heart attack
Nicotine in cigarette smoke causes heart to work faster and improve
blood pressure. While carbon monoxide takes more oxygen in the blood
that keeps the heart pumps blood more. If the heart is working too hard
plus high blood pressure, then it could lead to a heart attack.

breathe, and about 80 percent of COPD cases are caused by smoking. This
condition can cause the onset of emphysema (shortness of breath due to
damage to the air sacs or alveoli) and chronic bronchitis (cough with a
lot of mucus that occurs continuously for 3 months)
n. Impotence
for men age 30 's and 40s years, then smoke could increase the risk of
erectile dysfunction around 50 percent. This is because smoking can
damage the blood vessels, thereby reducing the artery narrows nicotine
blood flow and blood pressure to the penis. If someone is already
experiencing impotence, then it could be an early warning that
cigarettes are already damaging other areas of the body.

course will add to the heavy burden that should be borne by the parents.
