Do you think a single drag of smoke would cost you not more than a
few quick bucks? Think again... If you add up all future health expenses
to it, then you'll realize that it actually may cost you a huge
fortune.
Now let's closely examine what happens when you slowly inhale smoke... It enters your respiratory system and causes irritation to the delicate mucosal lining in the lungs. This is because the cigarette smoke consists of a mixture of toxic chemicals like carbon dioxide, carbon monoxide and nicotine that can severely harm your respiratory system. The lung's defense mechanism instantly tries to throw these toxic fumes out of the body. And hence you start coughing! You continue to inhale smoke further until it paralyzes the protective lining and crumples your lungs and then your immune system. Now... the cough disappears and the toxic gases travel through your blood to other body systems.
Once nicotine enters the liver, it starts acting like a drug and stimulates the secretion of blood glucose. At the same time, it acts on the brain causing an increase in heart rate and blood pressure. It stays in the blood for quite some time before it's excreted by the kidney and liver. You can see how just one drag of smoke has the capacity to not only compromise your immunity but also make way for foreign bodies like bacteria, viruses, and the like thus inviting a host of illnesses.
How good does that feel! Not to mention that this euphoria wears off within minutes wanting you to smoke more and more, to retain that effect.
Here, you are! Hooked... helpless... and how...
... smokers suffer from such direct damage on a daily basis with each passing cigarette.
