Health Conscious : Smoking is bad for our health

In our city i still see people smoking in a non-smoking area and even throwing their used cigarette anywhere they like even though there are designated trash cans for garbage items. I was not able to called their attention for they might be angry and they don't care on rules and regulation on the city. But there are still smokers who smokes in designated places and then throw used cigarettes to provided thrash cans.

I was too curious why cigarettes still on sale on the market even though it has many side effects on human beings and mostly affected to it are those who are non-smokers. I hear and read news about the draw back of being a smoker and most of them don't have good health in the long term. I was hoping that soon smokers will realized to themselves that smoking is really bad for their health and it would be best for them to stop before any health issues will occur to them.

It has been one of the root cause to many people getting cancerous diseases and high blood which are very common nowadays. Probably bacteria and toxin are generated from the smoke inhalation and damages some parts of our body and deteriorates some of their functions.

I even see all of the cigarette packs nowadays have government warning in it and has also a picture of some diseases that they may acquire if they do smoke. I am really wondering why cigarettes are sold to public that it can cause them bad health , i was assuming it is because of the big tax that are generated from the government from the cigarette maker owners.

I am hoping that smokers will open there eyes and see the reality if they continue to smoke , it will be just a path of getting worst health condition. It is just only my opinion and probably smokers have their own opinion why they need to smoke.

If they could stop today it's their best decision, if they stop tomorrow it's there good decision.

Hindi po ako mag-smoke. Thanks saadvice.

salamat at hindi ka mag smoke kasi nakaka sira sa katawan yan. @drawingwithflare

Opo. 14 lang po ako.

uu.. dapat wag ng mag explore sa smoking para hindi na ma addict

It's possible to stop smoking, I did this about 2 years ago and I don't smok now. I still have addiction and I know that I can't try anymore this. They key to stop smoking is spend time with people witch don't smoke (try to don't go outside with smoking people) and important thing is try as many time as is needed. If today you fail, than try tommorow and every other day and some day you will win. Good luck for all smoking people!

Thank you @aniafx1 for the encouragement and i am hoping that many people will follow the same path that you have done. This can really help those who are still smoking to find ways how to halt their bad habit.

There is no fun in living life without risk :p

yes, you have your opinion , i will respect that. @vnyrox . =)

It's difficult to stop smoking the person who involved in it, they know very well the health risks of cigaratee but not willing to stop it. My father and brother are chain smoker, i told them side effects of cigarettes but they are still smoking.
Nice post by you@robin-ho, thanks for sharing

@adnanmajeed , i am hoping your father and brother will stop being a chain smoker , so they will be safe on future effects on it.

Smoking is dangerous to our health, but that doesn't stop people from smoking most especially when it has become a habit to them. I only wish people that smoke will one day stop it.

yes, i am hoping that too , because it will be bad for their health as well as to those who are non-smokers that inhaled cigarette smokes.

Pretty much all the people that I do that smoke already know the risk, they just don't care. The tobacco industry really did a good job of getting people addicted. It's insane when you know that tobacco companies even pay for the anti smoking campaigns knowing that it wouldn't do much at all. I do know of people who have stopped or transferred from smoking to vaping to quitting though. I know there's not much basis on how safe it actually is but I think it's a step in the right direction. I heard China is getting really big into vaping scene at the moment and hopefully it will help the cause. It's going to be a long battle though as addiction is very hard to beat.

yes it is very true. we don't know yet the effect on vaping , i see many people do switch to vaping. I am hoping they do keep from any harmful effects from their bodies.

poison

yes it is more like poison. @felipesuarez

It is still sold in the market because of the excise tax imposed on it. It brings money to the government, hopefully the tax being collected will not fall into the wrong hands

yes you are right @clyde526 because of tax, smoking is surely a great money for the government.

you said it right, smoking is killing us slowly

yes it will do kill us slowly @wildalolita, so we should not engage into smoking.

Whenever I see people who smoke near us especially when my baby is around i always call their attention and request to stop smoking. There was one time the driver in the jeepney we ride was smoking while waiting for passengers and we are at the back of him. All i did was to call his attention saying ''excuse me i thought public transportation has this 'NO SMOKING' sign on their transportation and yours dont have, you know what i can call the LTFRB'' then the driver gave me a mad eye look.. my husband almost punch him LOL. I know some people cant stop their vices but i hope those smokers will act as responsible smokers as well :) very nice post sir, such a good awareness to everyone.

@deeday31 , yes your comment is very true. I am hoping they are responsible enough to respect other people especially to those who will not into smoking. You had a very wonderful comment. Keep it up. =)
