Is Smoking Good for Us?
•
Before we are going to smoke, it is better to look at the fact. About
50 thousands people die every year in Britain as direct result of smoking.
This is seven times as many as die in road accidents.
First of all, nearly a quarter of smokers die because of diseases
caused by smoking. Ninety percent of lung cancers are caused by
smoking. If we smoke five cigarettes a day, we are six times more likely
to die of lung cancer than a non smoker. If we smoke twenty cigarettes a
day, the risk is nineteen greater. Ninety five percent of people who suffer
of bronchitis are people who are smoking. Smokers are two and half
times more likely to die of heart disease than non smokers.
Additionally, children of smoker are more likely to develop
bronchitis and pneumonia. In one hour in smoky room, non smoker
breathes as much as substance causing cancer as if he had smoked
fifteen cigarettes.
Smoking is really good for tobacco companies because they do
make much money from smoking habit. However, for all the reasons
mentioned before, smoking is not good for every body else.
