In this article, the effects of tobacco on the human body is explored. Tobacco is

illustrated to affect most parts of the body and cause various complications such as cancer, lung

diseases, diseases of the heart as well as the blood vessels which end up destroying even the

human reproductive systems. According to Jeffrey Harris, “cigarette smoking is the primary

cause of lung cancer in the United States contributing to over 90% of lung cancer cases in men

and 79% in women. He also adds that smoking behavior primarily causes most of the Chronic

Obstructive Lung Diseases (COLD)behaviour. Smoking causes mutation of the cells in the body,

and this leads to blockage of cilia that plays a key role in the breathing passages in human.

According to Jeffrey Harris, cigarette smoking can cause further abnormalities in the human

digestive and respiratory systems which can result in the inflammation of the digestive and

respiratory tract.

According to this article, smoking is the principal factor leading to atherosclerosis.

Additionally, most active smokers show the development of the occlusive disease that affects the

large coronary arteries (Hilleman 1958). Accordingly, this causes the number of death rates

resulting from smoking-related issues to rise by about 70% in active smokers compared to those

who do not smoke. This article also illustrates the role of smoking on the rate of increase in the

number of premature deaths. The rate of premature deaths is high in parent smokers compared to

those who do not smoke.
