Inhaling Cigarette Smoke Damages Genetic Within Minutes

One more reason for you to stop smoking.  Many may think that the side effect of smoking will only affect you years later.  However researchers showed that cigarette smoking can damage your genetic within minutes after inhalation into the lungs, which will eventually leads to cancer.  The study of tobacco causing DNA damage linked to cancer is published in Chemical Research in Toxicology.

Second-hand smoker may even be worse off.

Heavy dope smokers attract serious lung disease faster

The deep, slow inhalation and long breath hold is predisposing cannabis smokers to a condition of rapid lung destruction much younger in life, a study by Melbourne researchers has found.

A team from the Department of Allergy, Immunology and Respiratory Medicine at Monash University reviewed the lung condition of middle-aged chronic cannabis smokers.

They found high rates of bullous lung disease, a debilitating condition where air trapped in the lungs causes obstruction to breathing and eventual destruction of the organ.

It is often caused by exposure to toxic chemicals or long-term exposure to tobacco smoke.

Studies have shown the disease will most likely strike tobacco smokers around the age of 65, but the new review, published in the journal Respirology, shows dope smokers are being hit 20 years earlier, while in their early 40s.
