Hazardous effect caused by Smoking

Annually, more than 5 trillion cigarettes are manufactured and sold.

Do you know that about 80% and 90% of lung cancer in women and men respectively around the world is caused by cigarette smoking. Even a cigarette smoking affects a child who has never smoked but his/her smoked which she was pregnant. A tiny child born of an average smoking mother will have a heart beat rate which is faster by 30% than the child who mother didn’t smoked.

That means a cigarette do affect a child if his/her mother smoked when he/she was in womb.

Now let us talk about the life expectancy (expected years of life a person lives) of smokers. An average smoker’s life expectancy is lessened by 8-10 years from the actual years he/she would live if he were not a smoker.

An average 10 to 15 minutes of life is lessened of the average smoker for every cigarette he smokers every moment.
