Cigarette is dangerous to smoker' s health. Smoker have many ratio to gamble to be cancer and make closely' s smoker to like.
I think, many smokers think about smoking cigarette make relax or some smokers to lead from their friends. Smoker know about smoking's dangerous for health of smoker although in front of a cigarette case will write about bad effects when smoker smoke cigarette but they don't to stop it. Some smokers think to stop cigarette but they can't stop it to be due to the cigarette is drug. Some smokers like smoking cigarette in public, do you know, smoke of cigarette can make the closely people have occasion to be can cancer same with smoker.
Smoking cigarette have to give bad effects more than benefit sush as smoker to worry about health of smoker' s family. It's my opinion as was you think about smoking cigarette.

The impact to nicotine is tragic for not only his or her immediat fammily and friends, but also for the rest of the community. Like wise, People who work in close contact with smokers. Those people effect by pollution air come from smokers while they smok, or left the cigarettes in an ashtray.
First of all, second hand is not just unplasant to nonsmokers, it's harmful to their helth. More deaths from second hand smoke die by tobacco smoke than the car accident or homicides. In fact, they die by heart diseas, lung cancer...If the nicotine is unfatal for them, they have problems such as caughing, chest pain, and reduced lung function...
The stong support for this, the children who live with smokers have illnesses than are those from nonsmoking homes such as pneumina because the children have a little control in them body ti defend against the nicotine.
Twisted Evil And yeat heavy smokers say this : they are suprised to hear that, or they defend themselves to say they are smoking from long time, and it never hurt them.
In America is not legal to smoke in public , and American say about smoking and drug that if you are use , you are loss it . they mean your going to loss your health, or people live around you.

In California it is illegal to smoke in any public buildings. This includes privately owned businesses such as bars and nightclubs. California now has a much lower rate of smokers than the rest of the population of the United States. ( rate in California is less than 20% smokers ). If someone is a rebel, or a criminal, or a delinquent, they are much more likely to be smokers.

Twisted Evil I also think smoking is very bad thing. It is not good for our health. My acquaintance that is a primary school student smokes almost every day. His parents know his smoking. Mad I don�t believe even a primary school student smokes and parental manner. Parents must scold for child. Passive smoking is troublesome. Non-smoker makes feel bad and damaged by it. My friend tries to stop cigarette, but it is not easy to do. I also see those who smoke over walking. It is dangerous for people who go along beside him. I don�t agree smoking people. Confused

I am a smoker. But I always see people who hate cigarette smoke. Because I know smoke of cigarette can make the closely people have occasion to be can cancer same with smoker.
Smokers are suffocated of late. But I think you must not suffocate smokers. They are illness.
I think that actually almost smokers know cigarette is no good and want to stop smoking.

PostPosted: Thu Oct 16, 2003 8:09 am    Post subject: A real story...stop smoking... Reply with quote

I think cigarette is a strange thing. Some loves it, and some hates it. For me, I believe that cigarettes can be beneficial to people for different aspects. For example, smoking can inspire spirits. However, it also causes people unhealthy. Therefore, I don't like smoke, and even when I see someone smoking or smell bad smell, I would run away and deeply breathe fresh air. I can�t dare such a disgusting odor . Then, I tell you a real story. My uncle had smoked for a long time, and grandmother advised him smoking would hurt your health. He did not care because he could not stop smoking. One day, he decided to stop smoke. At first, when he wanted to smoke, he chewed chewing gun. I guess many smokers have tried. The way is not the best for him, so finally he gave up. Thus, he kept smoking again. Two years later, when he smoked, the cigarette burned his daughter�s eyes. He was shocked, and decided not to smoke again. Of course, he doesn�t smoke now. Now, he says he thanks a lot for her daughter although it is a terrible event, and his daughter is well, too. He also tells us he feels healthier than before. Finally, I tell smokers who want to stop smoking if you hope for success, you must have determination and good way. Of course, don�t face such a shocking story like my uncle. Wink

Many people know that smoking is very bad for health. Smokers also know that but they can't stop smoking.
I don't understand them. Many businessman in Japan say " Smoking is custum in there free time between work time and work time. My boss smok. So I also smok. I have to smok with him." I don't think so. Your health is more important than that custum,isn't you?
I want to stop my friend to smok. What do I ?

At present 25% of the adult population smoke cigarettes because they get seriousness from working. Some smoke due to a new trend of fashion. Some are trying. Some think that it is smart. And some smoke for social acceptance. These cause many effects. The two main ones are health and society. The first reason is effect health. It has toxic on the body such as a lung, a heart, a bone and a brain. It can cause cancer to the lung. Smoking can lead to cardiovascular disease and respiratory disease which also effect to the heart. Smoking has most effect on body systems and metabolisms. It you smoke for a long time, you will be osteoporosis.
Because the metabolism in the body decreases activities of systems. Hormones is decreased or stopped in pouring substances. It is unusual condition. The activities of enzymes stop working. The other one is the effect on society. The government has to impart the cigarette is expensive. Moreover smoking has the effect to around people. It is dangerous for health. Therefore, there are a lot of the effects of cigarette and it is not good for health. Someone thinks to stop smoking but it is too late. Cigarette do harm family and children. The effect of Country in importing of cigarette causes losing money for bad thing. Why do you smoke when you know about that?
