It was discovered during the latter-half of the
20th century that smoking is not a healthy social habit. The American Heart Association reports that smoking is one of the most
preventable causes of death. In fact, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) estimates that 443,000 Americans die each year from smoking-related complications. Smoking adversely affects every
part of your body, including the circulatory system. The circulatory system is comprised of the blood vessels, muscles and organs that
transport blood throughout your body.
Toxins
There are several toxins in smoking products that can wreak havoc on your body. Such toxins are even more potent when they are combined together in cigarettes. According to the Better Health Channel, these toxins include carbon monoxide, free radicals, hydrogen cyanide, metals such as lead, radioactive compounds and tar. Carbonmonoxide directly affects your blood by inhibiting the transportation of oxygen to your organs. Free radicals raise your low-density
lipoprotein (LDL) cholesterol levels, thereby raising your total cholesterol level.
Once again, am besseching you to stop smoking.
