Smoking kills

India

Smoking has turned into a trend in the recent years.Surveys shows children smoke the most when they are influenced by elders.Cigarette packets have a warning against cancer these days but nobody pays any attention to those warnings.Do you think that the government should do something to stop this cause smoking does kill.Smoking is one of the biggest killers in the world.So why do we kill ourselves knowing the harmful effects of cigarettes?? Why does smoking becomes an addiction which kills??

i was a heavy smoker too. but now i've almost quit smoking. sometimes i use to smoke after meal or while drinking. that's it! i'm aware of it's effect on health. people ought to now it too. my dad's a chain smoker and he's nearly 65 now. but he's still healthy. that's because he does yoga and other exercises regularly. so people should either quit or reduce smoking considerably, or do something about their like my dad.

Well your dad may seem healthy on the outside but his lung is surely not healthy.I dont think yoga cant stop tar from accumulation in your lungs. On the contrary i am happy to see that you are quitting.Cheers dude!!!

Brilliant! How do you know that they don't even bother about those WARNING? Better don't show to children when they smoke. What is the best idea do you have to stop smokers from smoking? Seriously, I patiently wait for your answer...Happy Mylotting.

They smoke because their surrounding are cold that their body need heat. Others smoke for a reason that it feels more manly.

This is our health and we have to take care of this. If you thought govt will do some thing they can only create awareness among us. And more over the goverment is getting huge revenue in term of taxes why they will ban such thing.

You are right the government will only raise awareness that too in such a level that cant be heard by people

Great topic. I currently smoke. I have started on the path to quitting. Monday will be my official date. I am taking the recommended steps to help me be more successful. I will be getting the lozenges today to help me through the worst of it. It's a hard addiction and habit to get over, but I am ready for the challenge.

Yeah right!! I agree... 100.1% this thing absolutely kills... If I can just tell each individual that each stick they use are killing them for a year long... they will surely suffer..
