As smokers, we don't think about the chemicals in cigarettes. We think about how cigarettes help us cope with the stress of daily life, how they calm us down when we're angry, help us relax at the end of a long day, comfort us when we're sad or lonely. Harmful chemicals in cigarettes? No, we don't think much about that.
The truth of the matter is that smoking does the opposite of just about everything we give it credit for. When the chemicals in cigarettes are inhaled, they put our bodies into a state of physical stress by sending literally thousands of poisons, toxic metals and carcinogens coursing through our bloodstream with every puff we take. And those chemicals affect everything from blood pressure and pulse rate to the health of our organs and immune system.

This is a wonderful informative website and I applaud your efforts and all the important hard work you’re doing. It gives me hope! I created a blog about the same critical issue and I’m doing what I can to raise awareness on this critical vital issue from my own personal experience. The blog discusses everything related to big tobacco, non-smokers’ rights, and all the health dangers related to smoking and having to breathe secondhand smoke and secondhand smoker’s breath. I invite you to please take a few moments to take a look and share it with those you love and care about and help them quit the nasty ugly habit. http://smokenscreens.blogspot.com
