7. SMOKING
KILLS….SO WHY
BOTHER TO
START??
SMOKING KILLS…SO WHY BOTHER STARTING??
Major cause of stoke.
Suppresses immune system of the body.
Very addictive and raises blood pressure.
May cause gum problem, emphysema and cancer.
Reduces stamina, leads to depression and fatigue.
Dulls sense of smell, causes wrinkles on the skin.
8. TAR THE ROADS, NOT YOUR
LUNGS..
A smoker ingests a full cup of tar into his lungs
every day.
Only about 30 percent of cigarette tar is sent
back into the air through exhalation; the rest sticks
to your throat and lungs like chewing gum.
Tar kills healthy lung cells.
Deep inside the lungs, cigarette smoke damages
the alveoli.

10. NOT FORGETTING THE BODY..
• The blood vessels in the skin constrict when you
light up, limiting the amount of oxygen the skin
gets.
• ‘Smoker's face’ is a condition long-term smokers
suffer from.
• The skin may also appear gray in color, and
facial features may appear gaunt.
12. WHY DO PEOPLE START??
Lack of Awareness – About 30% of the smokers are
not aware of the consequences of smoking and just start
smoking. For this what we need is the fineprint at the
bottom of the pack to be done away with and be
replaced with huge pictures.
Peer Pressure – Another 30% of the people get into this
habit because of influence from their friends. It is a very
widely known fact that some students in our school
smoke too.
13. WHY DO PEOPLE START??
Curiosity – It is the experimentation attitude of
adolescents that makes them start smoking. They do not
care about the consequences and ‘just’ try it out. Think
about curiosity kills the cat…
Nicotine – The final reason is nicotine addiction which is
the most important reason for addiction. Nicotine is highly
addictive and provides a platform for tobacco addiction.
15. TO GET RID OF SMOKING, USE :
NICOTINE
GUMS :-
Nicotine Gum helps a
person to eradicate
many of the harmful
effects of smoking by
replacing a cigarette
with a gum.
However, the fatal
flaw to this is that a
person gets addicted
to nicotine gum and it
just becomes a
matter of replacing
addictions.
The proper way to
chew nicotine gum is
given on the right
side.
