Smoking is harmful because there are many ingredients in tobacco smoke that can harm your body. The tar in cigarette smoke for example, contains chemicals called carcinogens which encourage the development of cancer cells in the body. The carbon monoxide in cigarette smoke binds itself to protein molecules in the bloodstream and prevents these protein molecules from carrying enough oxygen around the body. This means that someone who smokes is likely to get out of breath and tired more easily. Smoking can cause a number of different diseases, including cancer and heart disease so deciding to quit smoking is an incredible thing to do for your health.
It is the toxins in cigarettes that cause most of the adverse effects of smoking (such as heart disease and cancer) not the nicotine. Many believe that nicotine replacement therapy (NRT) is as dangerous as smoking but in fact, NRT can help you achieve your quit smoking goal.
