There are 4,000 identified chemicals found

in cigarette smoke. 109 of those chemicals
are proven cause cancer, and 10 of them are
identified to cause birth defects.
The three most health-damaging chemicals
in tobacco smoke are nicotine, tar, and
carbon monoxide.
One pure ounce of nicotine can paralyze and
slow the nervous system of an adult man so
quickly, he could die within three minutes.

What is an actual cigarette

cont
When tar cools inside your lungs, it forms a black
sticky mass. Someone who smokes a pack of
cigarettes a day for one year inhales eight ounces
of tar. That is the same weight as a stick of butter.
Carbon monoxide is a odorless, deadly gas
released from exhausts of vehicles. When inhaled,
it removes the oxygen from the body, leaving
smokers with short of breath when just walking up
a flight of stairs.
Next time you think of sticking a cancer stick in
your mouth, remember its like sticking your lips
against the exhaust pipe of a car and taking a
deep breath.
