  1. Increasing the risk of stomach cancer, blood cancer and lymphatic cancer, because it contains levels of 1.3-Butadine, is one of the chemicals used to produce rubber.

  2. Causes various types of cancer, because cigarettes contain Arsenic substances that are used to preserve wood.

  3. It interferes with DNA repair and causes kidney damage as well as the lining of the arteries, because the content of the Cadmium substance is a metal substance used to make the battery.

  4. The danger of smoking for future health is that it can cause heart disease and heart attacks. Because the carbon monoxide content in cigarette smoke is inhaled into the bloodstream. Carbon monoxide reduces the amount of oxygen carried in red blood cells and increases the amount of cholesterol absorbed into the inner lining of the arteries, resulting in hardening of the arteries or atherosclerosis.

  5. Inhibits DNA repair and can damage the lining of the lungs, as it contains Akrolein, Formaldehyde and Chromium VI which can eventually cause lung cancer.

  6. Causes leukemia due to cigarettes containing Benzene substances that are actually used to produce other chemicals.

  7. Tar content in cigarettes will stick to the lungs, and cause a brown color on the teeth and nails. great is not it?
