Smoking

Smoking is like a cocktail absorb toxic cyanide and arsenic in the body, causing damage to the horrors smokers. UK Department of Health has published a video of the terrifying impact of smoking on the human body, in order to encourage people to put an end to this harmful habit.

The video opens with the scene a man standing outside smoking. Then there are illustrations of how the smoke he inhaled into the lungs enters the stars, before absorbed into the blood vessels, the heart and eventually reach the brain. In the process of "attacks" throughout the body, cigarette smoke makes the body parts damaged quickly. Dame Sally Davies Professor, leading health authorities in the UK, added: "We all know about the serious effects of smoking on the heart and lungs, but smokers need to know about the the potential destruction of the brain and other vital organs in the body as toxins in tobacco enters the blood. Every time you smoke, blood contamination, filled with toxins will flow through your body within seconds, increasing the risk of stroke or heart attack. Smoking is the major cause of premature death, with half of smokers die young because of diseases related to smoking. What is particularly disturbing is that people still underestimate the harm associated with tobacco use. 

According to experts, within 5 years after stopping smoking, your risk of stroke can be reduced to the equivalent of lifelong non-smokers.
