Now, however, with the increased size and scope of the drug trade, people invent drugs especially for human consumption.

    Text A.The Damage of Smoking
    Smoking is very dangerous. Most young people smoke because their friends pressure them to do so. They may be copying their parents who smoke or other adults they respect. At one time this would have been accepted as normal. But in the past 30 years attitudes about smoking have changes. Smoking is now banned in many places so that other people don’t have to breathe in smoker’s shocking tobacco smoke.

    Passive smoking, when you are breathing someone else’s smoke, can damage your health just like smoking can. Smoking becomes addictive very quickly, and it’s one of the hardest habits to break.

    Take 1000 young people who smoke 20 cigarettes a day. A quarter of them will die from a disease caused by smoking. That’s 250 lives wasted! Only six of those 1000 teenagers will die in road accidents. So what is it in cigarette smoke that is harmful?

    A chemical called nicotine is a substance that causes addiction. It is a stimulant that increases the pulse rate and a rise in the blood pressure. Cigarette smoke also contains tar – a major factor for causing cancer.

    Chronic bronchitis occurs when tar and mucus damage the air sacks in the lungs. The sufferer has a bad cough which is worse in the morning, and may get breathless easily.

    Gases in cigarette smoke increase your blood pressure and pulse rate. This can contribute to heart diseases. Smokers as twice as non-smokers are likely to have heart trouble.

    Smokeless tobacco that is chewed rather than smoked, is also harmful, causing mouth sores, damage to teeth and cancer.

    If you’ve ever watched an adult try to give up smoking, you know how hard it can be. It’s easier, healthier and cheaper never to start.
