For Providers You are here: Health Indexes Allina Hospitals Patient Education Print Send to a Friend GENERAL INFORMATION: Smoking and your health: Cigarette smoking is the most preventable cause of illness and death in the United States. Twenty-four percent of Americans smoke cigarettes. Each year more than one million children and adults start smoking cigarettes. About 440,000 people die every year from illnesses caused by smoking. People who smoke die earlier than those who do not smoke. The risk of disease increases if you smoke a lot, inhale deeply, or have smoked many years. Why are cigarettes bad for you? Cigarettes are filled with poison that goes into the lungs when you inhale. Coughing, dizziness, and burning of the eyes, nose, and throat are early signs that smoking is harming you. Smoking increases your health risks if you have diabetes (di-UH-b-tees), high blood pressure, or high cholesterol. The long-term problems of smoking cigarettes are listed below. Cancer: Smoking can increase your chances of getting cancer. Cigarette smoking may play a role in 40% of all kinds of cancer. Lung cancer is the most common kind of cancer caused by smoking. A smoker is at greater risk of getting cancer of the lips, mouth, throat, or voice box. Smokers also have a higher risk of getting esophagus (e-sof-UH-gus), stomach, kidney, pancreas, cervix, bladder, and skin cancer.

Extractions: Smoking and Your Health Why do you smoke? Smokers smoke in large part because of the addictive factors of nicotine. Cigarette smoking offers immediate reinforcement. Nicotine affects mood and performance and has been clearly implicated as the source of addiction to tobacco. People smoke to deliver desired doses of nicotine to their bodies, with certain rates of delivery and intervals between doses; these behaviors tend to be consistent for a person from day to day. Consequences of Smoking Diseases caused by cigarette smoking will kill approximately 25% of smokers. People typically think of lung cancer as the only cause of death caused by smoking, but actually there many other diseases related to cigarette smoking:

Extractions: Tel. (978) 256-1858 Cigarette Smoking and Your Health Cigarette smoking is the single largest preventable cause of disease and death in the United States. It is estimated that over 400,000 Americans die each year from diseases linked to cigarette smoking. Women who smoke cannot avoid the problems related to smoking. Each cigarette does some harm. Even young women can have health problems caused by smoking. The average cigarette smoker shortens her life by 5-8 years. Lung cancer and lung disease, heart attack, stillbirth (delivery of a baby that shows no sign of life), miscarriage (the spontaneous loss of a pregnancy before the fetus can survive outside the uterus), and low birth weight babies (weighing less than 5 1/2 pounds at birth) are all linked to cigarette smoking. Lung cancer has become the number one cancer killer of women in some states. More American women die from lung cancer than from breast cancer. As many as 29% of American women smoke cigarettes. The number of female smokers aged 12-18 years has doubled in 10 years. More teenage girls than boys now smoke. And the number of women smoking more than one pack of cigarettes per day is increasing.

Whether you smoke cigarettes, cigars, pipe, or dip or chew tobacco, you are more likely to have periodontal disease than those who do not use any form of tobacco at all. Smoking may be responsible for more than half of the cases of periodontal disease among adults in the United States, according to a study published in the Journal of Periodontology (JOP). The study found that current smokers are about four times more likely than people who have never smoked to have advanced periodontal disease. Many chemicals found in tobacco, such as nicotine and tar may have harmful effects on the periodontal tissues. One study even found that current smokers had more plaque and periodontal destruction than former or never smokers. As a result, tobacco users may be more likely to have calculus form on their teeth, have deeper pockets between the teeth and gums, and lose more of the bone and tissue that support the teeth. Loss of bone and tissue may potentially cause tooth loss. Research shows that smokers lose more teeth than nonsmokers. According to data from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, only about 20 percent of people over age 65 who have never smoked are toothless, while a whopping 41.3 percent of daily smokers over age 65 are toothless.

http://www.bpassoc.org.uk/information/risk_factors/smoking.htm

Extractions: Smoking is, like high blood pressure and high cholesterol, a risk factor for heart attack, heart failure and stroke. The more risk factors you have, the greater your risks of having a heart attack or stroke. Therefore if you smoke and have high blood pressure, you are much more at risk than if you have high blood pressure alone. Smoking causes your arteries to narrow, just as high blood pressure does. So, if you smoke and you have high blood pressure your arteries will narrow much more quickly. Effective treatments for nicotine addiction are available on the NHS. They are: specialist 'behavioural support', Nicotine Replacement Therapy (patch, gum, microtab, inhaler, nasal spray or lozenge, and Zyban (bupropion hydrochloride). Your best chance of stopping smoking comes from attending a specialist NHS smoking cessation clinic and using the appropriate medication. Your doctor should be able to make a referral for you.

Extractions: By Peg Rosen (WebMD) Sure, cigarettes can harm anybody, men and women alike. But some of smoking's ill effects, from ectopic pregnancy to premature menopause, are reserved for women only. This November 19 is the American Cancer Society's 22nd Great American Smokeout. If you haven't decided to give up smoking yet, here are some compelling reasons to quit now. Smoking increases your risk of cervical and rectal cancer Not only can smoking cause a variety of cancers in both men and women, it puts women at higher risk of cervical cancer, according to the American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists (ACOG). A Danish study published in the April 21, 1999, issue of the Journal of the National Cancer Institute finds that premenopausal women who smoke are six times more likely to develop rectal cancer than those who don't.

Extractions: Email To A Friend Home Digestive Diseases A-Z List of Topics and Titles : Smoking and Your Digestive System On this page: Cigarette smoking causes a variety of life-threatening diseases, including lung cancer, emphysema, and heart disease. An estimated 430,000 deaths each year are directly caused by cigarette smoking. Smoking is responsible for changes in all parts of the body, including the digestive system. This fact can have serious consequences because it is the digestive system that converts foods into the nutrients the body needs to live. Current estimates indicate that about one-third of all adults smoke. And, while adult men seem to be smoking less, women and teenagers of both sexes seem to be smoking more. How does smoking affect the digestive system of all these people? Top Smoking has been shown to have harmful effects on all parts of the digestive system, contributing to such common disorders as heartburn and peptic ulcers. It also increases the risk of Crohn's disease and possibly gallstones. Smoking seems to affect the liver, too, by changing the way it handles drugs and alcohol. In fact, there seems to be enough evidence to stop smoking solely on the basis of digestive distress. Top Heartburn is common among Americans. More than 60 million Americans have heartburn at least once a month, and about 15 million have it daily.
You Can Control Your Weight As You Quit Smoking
Pamphlet with tips on avoiding weight gain and quitting.
http://www.pueblo.gsa.gov/cic_text/health/w8quit-smoke/index.htm

Extractions: If you want to stop smoking but are worried about gaining weight, this brochure may help you. Many ex-smokers do gain a few pounds, but only a few gain a lot of weight. The best action you can take to improve your health is to quit smoking. Smoking is much more harmful to your health than gaining a few pounds. Making some simple changes, like developing healthier eating and physical activity habits, should help you control your weight gain when you quit smoking. Not everyone gains weight when they stop smoking. On average, people who quit smoking gain only about 10 pounds. You are more likely to gain weight when you stop smoking if you have smoked for 10 to 20 years or smoked one or more packs of cigarettes a day. You can control your weight while you quit smoking by making healthy eating and physical activity a part of your life. Although you might gain a few pounds, remember you have stopped smoking and taken a big step toward a healthier life. What causes weight gain after quitting?
