SOCIAL SMOKING HURTS MORE THAN YOU THINK.
One hour of hookah is as harmful as 100 cigarettes.
A report found that people may take 50-200 puffs in a typical hookah session, compared to 8-12 puffs per cigarette.
Just 1 cigarette a day can triple your risk of heart disease.
A research study found that 1-4 cigarettes a day resulted in a significantly higher risk of dying from heart disease.
There’s as much nicotine in a tiny Juul pod as an entire pack of cigarettes.
In JUUL’s 5% strength pods, the nicotine content is equivalent to an entire pack of cigarettes.
Smoking can cause erectile dysfunction.
Considerable evidence shows that smoking narrows arteries and reduces blood flow in the body, resulting in erectile dysfunction.
One cigarette a day carries 50% of the heart disease risk as a pack a day.
This is for anyone who might assume that when you smoke 5% of the pack you only take on 5% of the risk. Really, it’s 50%.
Cigarillo smoke has almost double the carbon monoxide as cigarette smoke.
After testing carbon monoxide levels exhaled from smoking cigarettes and cigarillos, researchers found CO levels nearly twice as high with cigarillos.
Cigar smoke contains many of the same chemicals as cigarette smoke.
Hydrogen cyanide, formaldehyde, nicotine, lead, arsenic, ammonia, to name a few. These chemicals can contribute to lung cancer and heart disease.
E-cig aerosol contains carcinogens and reproductive toxins.
Prop 65 requires the state to publish a list of chemicals that are known to cause cancer or reproductive toxicity. E-cig aerosol has 9 of those chemicals.
Hookah smoke contains several toxic agents known to cause lung, bladder and oral cancers.
Evidence suggests links between hookah usage and lung, oral and bladder cancer, as well as clogged arteries and heart disease.
