Smoking  |
|
 Now a days smoking became a hobby for both men and women. Even in all the pictures smoking scene appears. We can see the tag CIGARET SMOKING IS INJURIOUS TO HEALTH. But still people continue to smoke. Do you like smoking? How many cigarets do you smoke a day?

| 1. starry16 (2) | 3 months ago |  I do not smoke at all. I tried one back when I was in grade 5 and I hated it. Never tried it since. People say I was to young to try it then, hence I did not like it, but I thing it was a blessing in disguise. Now, I don't spend money on cigarettes, plus there is lesser risk in getting lung cancer.
People who smoke it times smell awful because of the smoke from cigarettes that I wanted to faint. But I have nothing against those who smoke.

 vathsala30 (821) | 3 months ago | I feel pity at the people who smoke too much. Besides its awful smell emanating from their mouth while they talk, it is highly dangerous for their health. | |

2.  dlr297 (2794) | 3 months ago |  Yes i smoke and i have been smoking for about 40 years now and i smoke a least 2 packs every day, so i guess i smoke between 40 and 50 cigarettes a day.
| |

|
|
| vathsala30 (821) | 3 months ago | Oh God! 40 -50 cigarettes a day? Are you not afraid of your health? Defenitely you will be knowing that cigarette smoking is injurious to health and it can even lead to cancer which gives a painful death. Did you ever tried to give it up? | |
|
|
| dlr297 (2794) | 3 months ago | I have never tried to quit, and as for my health it is better than most my age. and even after smoking for 40 years i show no signs of having any effects from it. Just because i smoke does not mean that i will get cancer.
Most of the health problems that i have is because of the sugars that they put into our foods. and that is what i have to watch. | |
|
|
| vathsala30 (821) | 3 months ago | Please do something to control your sugar level | |
|
|
| dlr297 (2794) | 3 months ago | I do...I eat right, get plenty of exercise, and i supplement my diet with vitamins, and herbs. | |
|
|
| vathsala30 (821) | 3 months ago | Can you name those herbs? It may be useful for others also who are suffering with the same health problems. Even 3 of my sisters and two of my BL are suffering with the same problem. i will ask them to follow your herbal medicine. | |
|
|
| dlr297 (2794) | 3 months ago | First off for overall health i supplement with:
1. Salba for fiber
2. Flax oil---This is also good for diabetes
3. Vitamin D3 (almost everyone is deficient in this)Make sure it says D3,
Because if it only says D, or D2 it is a real cheap form and
does not work as well
Heart Health----Helps with Blood Pressure, and cholesterol
1. Co-Q10
2. Garlic--both fresh and supplements.
Sugar Diabeties
1. I use Xylitol for my sweetener.
2. Glucobiotic supreme
I also take a multi Vitamin and mineral supplement from Life's Force.
I also try to get in at least 1 hour of exercise a day.
I also try to get at least 8 hours of sleep.
I also drink at least 5 glasses of filtered water a day
Most of the food that i eat is organic.
I do not eat fast food. or processed food
My system also needs extra Magnesium, and Potassium so i supplement with these also. But with these you need to know that you are low before taking extra because getting to much is as harmful as having to little.
I also do all the different cleanses twice a year and i use the ones from renew life.

| 4. angryeve (188) | 3 months ago |  Hi vathsala, haha yah I do smoke. I'm one of those who contribute pollution to our planet.hehe
People who kept on smoking doesn't really mean that they want to. There's a component on cigarettes that makes it so addicting. So, the longer you smoke the greater your addiction to it. I have tried to quit, for like a million times already. But I still find myself lighting a cigarette and just enjoying it while polluting the air here.lol But of course I do my smoking habit far from my daughter. Don't want her getting sick just because of me. As for how cigarettes I do a day, hmm.. that's a tough one. I used to smoke two packs a day sometimes even more. That was during my partying years being all busy with my band and friends blabla.. But after long years of really trying to quit, as of now I only smoke less than a pack of cigarettes. I know that that is still a lot but at least there are improvements. lol Wish me luck on this one=)

| vathsala30 (821) | 3 months ago | You want me to wish you for smoking? No. Definitely not. I will be the last person to wish anyone who will puff and drink. You know, i am not against that person, but his habit which puts his life in danger, orphaning his family. | |
|
|
| angryeve (188) | 3 months ago | ??? NO, I don't want you to wish me to keep smoking... Wish me luck on this one means that you're wishing me to achieve my goal which is to quit smoking. | |
|
|
| vathsala30 (821) | 3 months ago | Oh! I got it what you mean. This time, I not only wish you to quit your smoking habit, but also would like to bless you not one, but one thousand times. lead your life happily with your wife, kids, grand children and great grand children. Happy!!!!!!LOL? | |
|
|
| angryeve (188) | 3 months ago | Hahaha don't worry that's okay.. you really made me laugh so hard.lol=) | |
|
|
| vathsala30 (821) | 3 months ago | Hi Angryeve,

|
|
| vathsala30 (821) | 3 months ago | You are laughing means you are happy. I want you to be happy throughout your life lol | |

5.  Tantrums (946) | 3 months ago |  I used to smoke and atleast consume 5 sticks a day!
Even if it's dangerous to our health, quitting to smoke is a complex issue. If it weren't for the fact that it adversely affects other people I'd be all for letting people mess up their own lungs. I'd try and talk my friends out of it sure, but wouldn't be out to make it illegal or anything. Unfortunately it does affect non-smokers. I am pretty convinced of the links to the danger of second-hand smoke as a carcinogen, but even if you discount that, as an asthmatic I can tell you that it can adversely affect you, and yes you can avoid some situations but not all.
I really feel sorry for smokers. The tobacco companies are putting chemicals in there that make them more addictive and never told the public, not to mention there is strong evidence that they knew it was dangerous, even deadly, but never told anyone. I can understand how older generations have the addiction, heck doctors used to recommend smoking to relieve stress. On the other hand I think people in my generation (20 somethings) and younger are just plain stupid for starting.
But I know people who would love to quit, its very very hard, and its discouraging. The average number of times to actually quit is somewhere close to 7 or 8 according to the latest study. Man imagine having to keep trying to quit that many times!
I'm glad that they are outlawing it in more public places, I hope it will help people beat the addiction, because frankly it bothers me alot that all that money goes back to those who knew it was dangerous all along. Its one thing to sell a product and make money, its another to make money off a product that makes people sick and even kills them. Despicable.

| vathsala30 (821) | 3 months ago | Yes. What you say is absolutely correct and I totally agree. But since it is your health and life issue, by your strong will power, you try to overcome this addiction. Definitely the manufacturers are mixing some addictive chemicals, which they do not disclose. In this way people will get addicted to it thus increasing their sales at the risk of their own life. If you can't quit smoking even when tried hard, why don't you consult De-addiction Centres for councelling? I am sure definitely you will find solution for your problem and you will get rid of this addiction. | |

| 6. Buchi_bulla (2355) | 3 months ago |  I never smoke and my father was also not smoking. Hence I never used to like smoking and used to hate also as to how people become smoking train engines? When my marriage was fixed, I came to know that my fiancee was a chain smoker. I requested him to quit it and he promised me to change to three per day and he maintained. But after some time, due to work pressure, he again became chain smoker. Then he got heart attack once. This made him quit his habit of smoking. Now he never smokes and I am happy.

| vathsala30 (821) | 3 months ago | Some people due to allergy, do not smoke. Some people due to non liking, do not smoke. Some people keeping in mind its adverse effects on health, especially lungs do not smoke. Your father may be one amid them. Regarding your husband, quitting the smoking habit is clear. Anyway as long as people stay healthy, it is well and good. | |
