Smoking's harmful effects on the respiratory and circulatory systems are significant and preventable.
Smoking has detrimental effects on the respiratory system by damaging lung function, leading to conditions like chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) which reduces lung capacity and exacerbates chronic inflammation. It also impacts the circulatory system by increasing the risk of cardiovascular issues such as heart disease and stroke.
Long-term exposure to cigarette smoke compounds like carbon monoxide and cyanide contributes to lung damage and decreases lung elasticity. Avoiding smoking and secondhand smoke can prevent these severe health consequences.
