Cigarettes contain more than 4,000 chemical compounds and at least 400 toxins.
When you inhale, a cigarette burns at 700`C at tip and around 60`C in the core. This heat breaks down the tobacco to produce various toxins.
As a cigarette burns, the residue is concentrated towards the butt.
THE DAMAGE IS INFLUENCED BY...
1-The number of cigarettes smoked in a day.
2-Whether the cigarette has a filter.
3-How the tobacco has been prepared.
