The Dangers Of Cigars
Smoking a cigar exposes your body to 4000 chemicals and 200 poisons and carcinogens, even when you do not inhale.
According to the American Cancer Society (cancer.org), "Cigar smoking increases your risk of death from several cancers including cancer of the lung, oral cavity, esophogus, larynx, pancreas and bladder. Cigar smoke also increases the risk of heart disease and lung disease. Cigars contain the same poisons(toxins) and cancer causing agents (carcinogens) as cigarette smoke, but in very high concentrations".
Do not be fooled into thinking that cigars are not as harmful as cigarettes. The facts are they are more lethal. The American Cancer Society states that "The toxins or irritants in cigar smoke include carbon monoxide, nicotine, hydrogen cyanide, ammonia, volatile aldehydes. The carcinogens in cigar smoke include benzene, aromatic amines (especially carcinogens such as 2-naphthylamine and 4-minobiphenyl), vinyl chloride, ethylene oxide, arsenic, chromium, cadmium, nitrosamines, and brpolynuclear aromatic hydrocarbons".
Do not be fooled into thinking that exposing your body to these toxins will not make you sick. The truth is unfortunately when you smoke, its not a question of if you will get seriously ill, its only a question of when.
Studies from The Center For Disease Control (cdc.gov), show that millions of people are realizing the health hazards of smoking both cigars and cigarettes, and they are quitting more now than any other time in history.
Quitting smoking is one of the best things you can do for your body and your life. A step in the direction of your health and well being is one that you will always be grateful for and something you will always thank yourself for doing.
