A friend of mine share on a WhatsApp group one the the great ever rewarding benefit of smoking cigarettes and what he ended at was so disheartening as it portrait the real image of what smokers are liable to turn into after in life. I also read on the warning from the Federal Ministry of Health warning that smokers are liable to die young.

Though many has one or two reasons that led to their smoking such as peer groups, friends, family members, secret society and the impediment impact of the social environment lived in. Another scenario is in the case of those that smoke marijuana with the believe of rendering highness, lessen stress or thinking, cure to pile, and the ecstasy derived in smoking indian-hemp.


The most common havoc cause by smoking cigarettes is the health  implication challenge which is characterize by cells, organs and nervous system dysfunctions and a short life span resulting to stroke and sudden death. Can we discuss a little about what smoking has come to offer and (or) can't offer, our respective opinions are welcome as we share more light on the query below.

Is there any better offer or relevance smoking illicit hemp such as marijuana or cigarettes offers?

Does the effect of smoking poses more danger than the pleasure derived in it?

What are the safety precautions or remedies to ameliorate the hazardous impacts of smoking.

Good write up mate, but then you should add a link as well, not stating the internet, the forum is against it okay ? Do so!
I have seen intelligent smokers anyways, but I haven't seen any that smoked cigarettes till their 80's and 90's.
There's nothing wrong with it, but all I advice is for people to smoke and eat vegetables for supplements.

Most people get cooled or calmed as a result of smoking one or two.
It does calms there nerves down.

Cigarette addiction is one of the biggest problems in young society.  And from this smoking, they gradually became drug-addicted.
The situation is so bad now that even 12/13-year-olds children are getting addicted to smoking.

According to a survey, near about 5.5 trillion cigarettes are produced each year.

Our young society is addicted to cigarettes thinking smartness, does not understand the consequences of cigarettes.

Cigarette is a slow poison. It kills slowly. Smokers don't realize how much they are hurting them by looking for a little pleasure. The nicotine in its smoke also harms people around smokers. Unbeknownst to them, they are harming everyone, including themselves.

I think that all people are aware that smoking is harmful, but they still smoke despite it. And probably nothing can be done to change, it's personal choice of everyone.
I'm not sure that many people die young because of smoking. It doesn't happen often, usually people start to feel negative impact of smoking at elderly age.

Are you sure about that situation is so bad now? Kids got addicted to smoking at young age 10, 20 or even 30 years ago. But now I think that situation is changing. Now more kids is getting addicted to vaping, instead of cigarettes. Now I barely can see kids with cigarette in their mouth, but I see vaping kids at every corner. They prefer it because it had so many tastes and don't smells that bad. It's also popular to think that vapes is less harmful than cigarettes.

I saw quite many smoking at such age. My grandpa was close to 90 years, had lung cancer and wasn't able to walk in last months of his life, but despite it he still asked me to buy pack of cigarettes.

Smokers are prone to die young as many health people suggest, but sometimes the facts on the ground do not show this. According to my personal experience, I just met one person who actually died young because of his smoking habit and even then he was 45 years old (still relatively young, right?) and that was also due to his habit of smoking at least 2 packs per day, staying up late, consuming a lot of caffeine and other unhealthy habits. But I actually saw many people in their 60s, 70s who actively smoked from a young age, now they are old and still fit, including my father, my neighbors, my former teacher and many others.

Some of this topic is already created to the forum and i dont know why it still will be coming up as a new topic and is not suppose to resurrect again. We know that the health implications of cigarettes is dangerous, and the advantages is not much benefitable like the disadvantages, cigarettes, taken it excessively it will condemns the internal structures of human organs and lead's to carcinogenic car to the lungs and the heart, but people still like taking of cigarettes mostly who lives in snow community

I've only smoked once or twice in my lifetime, simply to see what this fuss was all about. Not only do I find it harmful for our health, but also an expensive habit, with an average cost of 4+- Euros per package.

I see a rising trend in people smoking, especially from younger ages, something which is definitely concerning. Personally, I'm never going to make smoking a habit of mine.

Yes.

What's more dangerous is being a second smoker. The one that don't smoke yet breathes in the smoke from these smoker's cigarettes and mouths. Honestly, I've been avoiding people who smokes that don't look at their surrounding.

My health became unstable due to it and I think it was really because of the smoke that I've intake as a second smoker. I have no option since it's the environment where I am before.

I remember my house master when I was in school, he smokes one or two cigarettes before going to his farm, the man was old, would be around his 70s at that time, he is an hard-working man. I was wondering when I got older that how could a man like that be strong and working like that at old age. I have many people that smokes and are still living, I have seen people that are not smoking but died young.

I am not a smoker and I can never smoke because smoking is never my thing, but I have seen some people that smoke and takes care of themselves and not yet dead, not like some people that will smoke and be harmful for them and not going for medical checkup, that is bad.

It is not good to smoke because of the nicotine in cigarettes but life has been very complicated but I will sincerely advice people not to smoke.

Smokers understand that the habit isn't good for their health, but they are doing it anyway. Therefore, people should understand that health isn't everyone's top priority. Some people just want to live their life to the fullest, enjoy every moment with a cup of coffee and a pack of cigarette (while playing slots lol). By the way, almost all people I know die shortly (<5 years) after quitting smoking, while many people grow really old and still smoking. My conclusion is that your happiness is more important. So, don't wear a mask and keep smoking! ;D

PS: don't do it in public to respect others #PeacefulSmoker

There is a theory that it's in vogue right now which questions the real ability of the smoker to decide quitting. I'm not talking about the physical or psychological withdraw after deciding, but about the conditioning of the decision itself. Obviously, there are people who manage to quit smoking, so it's not an infallible conditioning, but I guess that the reason why many people keep doing it after years or decades is not always that their health is not their priority.

Why the stereotype OP, I think you should worry more about yourself and not about another person. Not trying to justify smokers but the threat to life is as real for smokers as for everyone else with a habit.

Popular opinion, smokers are liable to die young, so also are the real alcoholics who can make life threatening decisions when drunk, so also are gamblers who can die from High blood pressure or heart attacks, or may slip into depression and take their own life, and womanisers as well.
All habits pose a danger to life, what keeps it in check is "moderation". All habits should be done in moderation.

Withdrawal symptoms are real, but I don't think this is the case since there are many nicotine replacement therapies. Like I said, nothing beats the feeling of a cup of coffee + a pack of cigarette... The pleasure comes with a major drawback (i.e. health) for sure, but it won't stop people from doing it anyway.

In the end, it's none of my business if you smoke or not (and the other way around).

I see smoking the same way as someone with severe obesity and heart disease -- they know what they're putting into the body, they know it's toxic for them, and they accept the risks. There is no solution, unless you're suggesting that cigarettes be banned.


Since when? Smoking rates have plummeted over the last decades and there aren't any children in this world that don't understand smoking is bad for you. Smoking is a nonissue.

Sure, once somebody has taken the decision of quitting smoking withdrawal symptoms are both physical and psychological really heavy, and vaping or whatever can help with these. But the feeling that you say that won't stop people is what I was talking about: cigarettes are designed not only to cause you withdrawal, but also to cause you not quitting them even when you know they are killing you.

That said, the ultimate liability of smokers feels blurred to me.

The joy people derive in smoking is what I really don't know because the few times I have tried smoking,I usually experience cough after smoking,and that alone discouraged me from smoking.
However,the medical practitioners have made it known to every one that smokers die young,but the rate of foolishness in man will not allow them to adhere to instructions and warnings from doctors.

Honestly, I grew up in a smoking environment, where my grandfather and father were heavy smokers and they could smoke about 20 cigarettes in one day. Do you know? the doctor repeatedly reminded them to stop smoking but the funny thing was the doctor who told them to stop smoking had long died from cancer, my father and grandfather were still healthy and fitter in their old age LOL

This statement gets me confuse more anytime I see people smoking even when it's not necessary, why I said even when it's not necessary is because according to the with smoking should be for cold weather to keep the body warm when there is much cold, currently in the world today,people smoke even when the sun is one the hottest level, and what annoys me most is that this statement "smokers are liable to die young" are liable to die young is on the pack of the cigarette, do they see or take that as a normal slogan or motto for smokers.
I can't just understand why...

I had a friend who didn't smoke at all but when started, he used to smoke whenever he got a chance, I guess, it is purely an addiction, a form of "pseudo-relief" which the smokers experience, like a form of distraction from life with tensions? They smell so horrible, hate when they smoke in public and then spread the smoke in the air for others standing close to breathe, but for those who got addicted, maybe the smell doesn't repulse them anymore, they just get some psychological pleasure I guess  ::)

Smoking is one of my greatest regret in life. It's very easy to start but extremely difficult to stop. It takes a lot of will power and disconnected from friends that smoke.
I have had some health challenges that is connected to smoking. I would vow never to go back to the habit. But once the symptoms clears, smoking continues.If you have never smoked in your life, my heartfelt advice is, NEVER TASTE IT. If you try it, just like me YOU WILL REGRET.

I tried it when I and my friends were curious about a lot of things. I never really liked the taste of the cigarette or the smell of the smoke(especially the smoke). I never really understood what is really good about smoking.

so, you are saying "the irony"? smokers don't only affect them, it also affects people around them, especially children. I also grew up in a smoking environment and I can see the negative effects it has on my family.

Although, different people have different reasons why they probably smoke. Like a friend of mine, he actually smoke because he believes smoking calm him down, but he is now addicted to it, and hardly live a day without smoking. Other smoke because of the pleasure they claims it give them. However, apart from the negative effect smoking does to your system, it also consumes money. Nevertheless, I have seems smokers who died from lungs Cancer at a young age. I won't advice anyone into smoking.

True, smoking is nothing but spoiling your health and wasting your hard earned money, it is a short lived pleasure which has serious consequences if you smoke one o two packets of cigarettes'/day. Quit smoking if you are already heavy smoker, it has lot of advantages and good lasting effects on your health , you will taste and smell food better, your breath smells better and your cough goes away.

Well, the operative word is "liable" and not – Smokers WILL/MUST die young. That's why people still smoke and fresh ones get initiated into the fold. Come to think of it, even if it were with warning such as I suggested above; people will still smoke. After all, something must kill a man.

When it comes to the issues of living and death no man can predict the time him/her will die, sure some habits aid quick death but most young people are aware of the many danger of their actions, smoking is bad health-wise but we still have smokers that leave longer than nonsmokers.

yeah,you are right,but it seems foolish to me that human being will see something harmful,and he will want to do it the more.It is boldly written on the pack,that smokers die young,and despite those warnings,people will still go ahead smoking,including medical practitioners  fall victim of smoke addiction as well.
One should Atleast be cautious of his or her health so as to have a good health.

Continuous smoking can be harmful to health. If you can, I think smoking might be okay, as long as it's not too frequent. Symptoms that can be obtained when smoking continuously can cause the condition of the body to worsen. It's normal when smoking is normal, but always be careful. Don't do something that will make you regret it later.

Cigarettes become a dilemma commodity that will never end if it is debated. on the one hand, cigarette excise taxes are the biggest contributor to state excise revenues.

the question is, is it only cigarettes. we know the dangers of smoking, this is a very bad habit but it is difficult for someone to quit this addiction. however, that intrigued me. why cigarettes are legalized, after all cigarettes are harmful not only to smokers but also to the environment of non-smokers.
in fact, the government has the power to stop any company from producing cigarettes as their commodity. but this effort is really not carried out, because after all the tax from cigarettes is quite promising for the government, especially in my country. Cigarette companies are one of the highest income tax earners.

on the other hand, we are in trouble with the phenomenon of junk food which is no less dangerous than the dangers of cigarettes. so which one should we focus on.

With the very unsafe environment, polluted air, the consumption of more processed food than natural ones, global warming, inflation and the general unpredictable state of things, we are all liable to die young! that is the warning the government don't tell you. That someone is liable to die young is not a death sentence and doesn't mean that others labeled as not liable to die young will live longer.

Consume more fruits and green vegetables, exercise more and involve in breathing exercise, drink more water, regular check-ups, eating well and a balanced meal can help.

Nice points and I've also got to discover that this are mostly applicable to the young ones, there's much possibilities that their system can be restored back to normal provided they follow precautionary measures and stop smoking, I've also discovered that taking pure honey has a natural cure to a varieties of damaged cells, organs and body tissues and both young and old can take good advantage of using a pure and natural honey taken from bees and lastly the best of it all as solution is abstainance, don't try or do what will be regrettable later in the future.

Smoking habit is usually developed at young age when youngsters meet people in different companies there they find it attractive and become chain smokers.  It's either gaming zone or friends they pick up this habit and they dnt care about their health.  Consequences of smoking starts getting visible at really young age like coughing but it's such a bad and addictive thing that they can't leave it.  They destroy their life and health because of this habit and may die because of this .

Anything that would harm human health is the focus that everyone should be more pay attention. Cigarette, junk food, CO2 emission, illegal logging, alcohol, fast food, sweet food and many more thing that can't I mention one by one. If a government want to make their citizens healthy, they can forbid any junk food and alcohol, run a green ecosystem and focus about the environmental first. But government also need money, that's why they're still accept but they charge a high taxes. So it's a choice by every person, not from the government.

This is true that intake of junk is soo high in young people in today's generation that is causing different health issues but cigarette and smoking is more dangerous than junk food. Nicotine is extremely damaging for health and smoke that cigarette produce have dangerous effect on human health specially lungs.

Yes, and...

Generally people are so unhealthy that smoking bothers them. If they had truly healthy food, and lived a toxin-free life, smoking wouldn't bother them. There still are people who live into their 90s and smoke heavily, but don't poison themselves with medicine or junk food.

Parents must learn to begin to carefully observe their children at teenage stage in other not for them to mix up with the bad influence of going with the society we lived in, there must be time to time inspection on our children to check whom they are moving with.


It's obvious that children don't know about what's good for them and what's not, so this makes them easily attracted to whatever they come across with abd can't decide for themselves, smoking start with destroying of the lungs and other part of the body and before the parents know if care is not taken they would have gone extreme with bad friendship.

The REAL question is, will smokers die faster if they get the Covid vaxx?

8)

Lol this is saying that there are more deadly stuff that can take or end life faster more than expecting or the effect of smoking. Smoking is habit that can stop but some virus if contacted the person will go down. Prevention is better than cure but they said something must kill a man whether covid , smoking or something somewhere.

There are no stages in the development of smoking; it can begin at any age. Parents shouldn't be blamed for anything; I am aware of how important they are to our addiction. But for me, smoking is a personal choice. Although almost all of my friends smoke, I don't. I made this decision for myself a long time ago, and I have no power to stop my friends from smoking. Even though WHO has stated that smokers are more likely to die early, they are all addicted to it. People continue to smoke every day. Let each person handle their own health difficulties. If you visit a hospital and witness what smoking has done to people's livers, you will realize how undervalued good health is in this region of the world. You will flee anything that is smoking.

Yeah that's why I never said smokers have possibility to die young but yes smoking have its life damaging effects that no one can deny. The lung damage ,the smokers cough they are real and visible symptoms in all smokers.

Smoking is a bad habit, it shortens life, there's a common say that smokers are liable to die young, it deteriorates health, it gives a bad breath, it affect the lungs and other human organs, it's a waste of money, it blackens the lips and discoloration of the respiratory system, in reduce integrity, it crease blood pressure, hypertension and reduce pedigree and public acceptance and it kills lastly, all these were the dangers that comes in with smoking, i wish someone can mentioned as well if any, the benefits if smoking like these.

This is one of the greatest problem in our generation. People know the side effects of smoking but they still smoke. i think i am blessed to be a non smoker.

It is medically proven that smokers are liable to die young. Someone who is addicted to smoking will always find words to defend his pride to quit smoking. I refused to argue more with any of my friends that refused to quit their smoking habits.

We are now in a terrible atmosphere where someone will take pleasure in things that are known to be harmful to his body without minding the health challenges it will bring to their health in the future. It's so pathetic that people have gone this far to be delusional in their reasoning

 
 

What is the exact criteria of "die young" ? What age is considered to be young ? 18 ? 40 ? What about famous people that are heavy smokers ? Like Joe Cocker for example. He had smoked 40-50 cigarettes per day, killed his liver with alcohol and lived till 70. Why do athletes smoke? Or doctors ? It is easy to say "oh he has died so young, because he smoked during his entire life". Then what about people who are 70-90 and still smoke? People just need to know their limits. If you smoke one cigarette after another then no wonder you die young. Same if you do sports 24/7, non stop, you wont live longer. A person can lay whole day in a bed, and have a shorter life than a person who smokes and drinks. It is all individual.

It is no definite rule that those who smoke will die earlier than who don't smoke,smoking is not at all related to death of anyone.  Yes health damage is true ,smoking will damage your respiratory system, your lungs will be damaged and you'll have lot of cough and breathing problems.  Smoking also effects your heart and soo many problems  but despite of everything the addiction is real.
You will never see a smoker admitting that he's doing something wrong or bad instead he'll stand by his habit and give you some good justification.

Smoking can cause various diseases. including lung cancer, stroke, blood vessel disorders, and so on. Of course it will result in death. Excessive smoking is very dangerous to health and life. so stop smoking and take care of yourself.

I quit Feb 29th 1996 so almost 27 years without a smoke 💨.

I quit pot Jan 27 1991 so almost 32 years without pot.

I quit gambling July 1990 so 32 years without betting.

All of the above will hurt you if you do too much.

I did too much

But I quit so I guess I am lucky.

Why did I quit all of the above I prefer my wife’s company over any of the above.

Choose to quit them to be able to stay with her longer.

A part of the joke is that smoking is very harmful to health and should be avoided.
But unfortunately, it has become the worst dilemma of the current ERA. People should understand that their health is more important than this bad habit.
Also, please avoid smoking in public as it may affect nonsmokers' health.



I would've merited this post if I had any :/

People who are non smokers also die from damage of the lungs and other related diseases. Diseases sometimes come even when you have a clean lifestyle. I do not know why it is so. Children dying from lung cancers, are we to say they are smokers too? Will you will say they inhaled dangerous substance? Smoking is a lifestyle just like living in a skyscraper is. It does not mean everyone will fall off the building even if one jumps through the window and dies from it before your eyes, there will still be people who will not be scared of living there.

Truly speaking there are multitude of factors at work.i have seen smokers who lived a long life. I have seen non smokers die early. The truth is there is no single yardstick to measure all. Sometimes it's the general health and habits which play key role. Even tobacco contain 1000s of chemicals and some do have benifits as well..so it's really complicated science. But yes in general smoking is injurious to health.
