In France , Around 66 000 people die each year from tobacco (over 10% of deaths) of which 27 000 per lung cancer (85% were caused by smoking) by the National League against Cancer. For a smoker in four, the average loss of life expectancy is twenty years and results in death before 65 years, according to a study by the Regional Health Observatory of Ile-de-France.

France has about 15 million smokers are young people between 20 and 25 who smoke the most (48% of the age by OFDT).

Compared to a non-smoker, the risk of cancer of a smoker is multiplied by:

• 10 for lung and pharynx
• 7 to the pharynx.
• for the mouth and esophagus
• 2 for the bladder.

The incidence of lung cancer is proportional to the number of cigarettes smoked per day. This frequency has already increased from 5 cigarettes per day. Indeed if one smokes 5 x 365 days for 15 to 20 years, this represents tens of thousands of cigarettes.

“Smoking is taboo, we all come to the end!”
According to the World Health Organization, tobacco is the second largest cause of death worldwide. Leading cause of preventable death, tobacco each year, causing five million deaths. This is the only legal product sold that kills when used exactly as the manufacturer provides.

It is well known that half of all smokers today, approximately 650 million people will eventually die from smoking. It is equally alarming that hundreds of thousands of people who have never smoked die each year from diseases caused by inhaling the smoke of others. Thus, smoking also means the health of his entourage, whom one meets every day at work, at home and in public places. Indeed, half of smokers consuming more than 15 cigarettes per day die of tobacco related disease and thousands of passive smokers pass away every year.

Passive smoking over an extended period increases the risk of lung cancer (26% if the spouse smokes). So we thought that the clinical observations suggest that female non-smokers were more often affected (as the left suggest KPB6 survey conducted by the College of Lung General Hospital), a large U.S. study concludes that non-smokers are equally affected by lung cancer irrespective sexe7. Finally, cancers of the larynx, the upper aero-digestive tract, pancreas and cervix are related to smoking. The link with passive smoking thus seems highly possible. Only the link with cancers of the sinus is now established, it is doubled;

Smoke are at increased risk of stroke or heart attacks. Increased blood pressure is another danger of smoking. Smoking also reduces the levels of HDL  respiratory infections more often than nonsmokers. Snuff smoke is hazardous to nonsmokers. Exposure to smoke, also called passive smoking increases the risk of nonsmokers of having the same problems as smokers.

A nonsmoker, remain in a very smoky room for an hour with several smokers inhales as many bad chemicals if fumase which actually inhale 10 or more cigarettes.

One study showed that the rate of lung cancer among nonsmoking women depended on the amount of cigarettes, cigars or pipes smoked their husbands. Smoking affects pregnant women and their unborn children. Mothers who smoke have an increased risk of spontaneous abortion and stillbirth.

smoking is the leading cause of preventable deaths in U.S. On average, people who smoke die 5 to 8 years earlier than people who do not smoke. Those who use snuff, and people who live with smokers have virtually all cases of lung cancer. Your risk of developing cancer of the throat, mouth, esophagus, pancreas, kidney, bladder and cervix is several times higher than among people who are not regularly exposed to smoke snuff. Smoking is the major cause of emphysema, a debilitating lung disease that slowly destroys a person’s ability to breathe normally.
Smoking is especially dangerous for people with:

• Heart disease
• Blood vessel disease
• Diabetes
• High blood pressure
• High cholesterol

family history of these diseases.
Smokers and children living with them, have twice the risk of fatal heart disease. Smoking also increases stroke risk. Women, especially those over 35 years taking pills of birth control and smoke are at increased risk of stroke or heart attacks. Increased blood pressure is another danger of smoking. Smoking also reduces the levels of HDL or “good cholesterol”.
