Based on today's data science, the future forecast shows that in 2050, more than 7.8 million people will die suddenly because of long-term smoking, and the high-risk induction stage will be adult males aged 35 to 55.
"case sharing
As an old smoker with a history of 20 years, Uncle Liu tried to quit smoking many times under the persuasion of his family, and all ended in failure.
Although Uncle Liu is nearly 60 years old, he is very skilled in using the Internet. He likes to brush Tik Tok, read posts and visit Weibo every day.
Just two days ago, I saw a post that subverted his understanding that nicotine in cigarettes is not a carcinogen.
This title makes Uncle Liu very curious. After clicking in, he read the whole article and came to the conclusion that smoking is harmless to health.

Nicotine in cigarettes is not a carcinogen? Is smoking harmful to health wrong?
Nicotine is not a carcinogen, but it is a toxic substance!
Experts and doctors in clinical medicine and disease control believe that nicotine contained in cigarettes has carcinogenic effect, but this is only the ideological basis and has not fundamentally achieved the effect of scientific theory.
In the process of cigarette manufacturing, tobacco is the main component, and the packaging work is completed through multiple processes such as material selection, addition, filtration and secondary production. Nicotine emitted during ignition is a colorless liquid, which is exposed on the surface of tobacco.
Nicotine exists not only in cigarettes, but also in tomatoes, Lycium barbarum and other common plants. It is called nourishing health food in traditional Chinese medicine.
The experiment of extracting components from disease data shows that nicotine has a strong toxic emission, and it is easy to cause sudden death through the closed living environment of mice for 7 days. Nicotine contained in a pack of cigarettes can kill a pig.
The emergence of the above conclusions has caused some people to have some doubts, and has not brought some sudden death to the human body, but has achieved the effect of relieving mental fatigue to a certain extent.
The reason for this phenomenon is that smoke drifts during cigarette ignition, which effectively reduces the toxic components emitted by nicotine, and the harm to human body shows a slow development trend.
Long-term smokers are affected by the detoxification and metabolism ability of liver and kidney organs, which shows the problem of toxic waste tolerance mechanism. As long as the number of cigarettes is well controlled, there will be no toxic harm.
Inhalation of nicotine into human body is based on stimulating the visual nerve in the inferior colliculus of the brain center, thus improving the mental vitality of human body, and to some extent achieving the neurological effects of relieving fatigue and stress and preventing mental malaise.
However, the addictive components contained in nicotine are more difficult to remove than heroin, which is also the main reason why it is difficult to quit smoking.
Although nicotine does not cause cancer, there is no doubt about the harm of cigarettes!
According to the research on the extraction of medical components, it is found that after the smoke is ignited at high temperature, there are as many as 2 180 harmful components, such as benzene-propylene ratio, amphetamine, chromium, Kun and ammonia.
After ingestion, the main attack point is to stimulate the intima of the oral surface, which in turn hinders the respiratory and circulatory functions, affects the health of human bronchus and lungs, and increases the risk of lung cancer.
According to authoritative morbidity statistics, during the 1990s from 65438 to 2009, the total number of smokers suffering from lung cancer in China was as high as 630,000, accompanied by liver cancer, oral cancer and other diseases.

What harm will long-term smoking bring to human body?
1, affecting reproductive system
Men who smoke for a long time face impotence, accompanied by damage to the surface of reproductive system and inhibition of sensory ability of spinal cord central nervous system. Fetal malformation is easy to occur after the implantation reaction between the secreted sperm and the egg.
Step 2 shorten life span
When it comes to the harm that cigarettes bring to human beings, it should be expressed indirectly by life span. The figures of age cannot be clearly standardized, but the characteristics of smokers' longevity are not obvious.
3. Increase the risk of miscarriage.
Some women relieve fatigue and stress by smoking, which not only disturbs endocrine balance to some extent, but also aggravates their own vascular diseases, damages the function of uterus and ovary, leads to the decline of egg quality and easy abortion during pregnancy.
4. Smoking causes cancer
The World Health Organization shows that long-term smokers are related to lip cancer, tongue cancer, oral cancer, liver cancer and kidney cancer. There is a close relationship between cervical cancer, which has become one of the recognized facts in clinical medicine.
5. Smoking induces thrombosis.
The carbon monoxide emitted by cigarettes during their ignition will reduce the absorption capacity of blood oxygen after being ingested into human body, and it is also prone to the phenomenon of blood thickening, which will increase the risk of atherosclerosis and thrombosis.
The risk of cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases among long-term smokers aged 50 to 55 is about 0.8 times higher than that of others.

Expert: Quitting smoking is the only way to reduce the harm of tobacco.
As the largest tobacco producer in the world, China also has the highest proportion of smokers.
According to Wu Yiqun, deputy director of the Health Development Research Center and former vice president of the Chinese Academy of Preventive Medicine, the tar component in tobacco products is similar to the low tar component contained in cigarettes.
In order to improve the growth rate of people's life span, we must first give up smoking, guide consumers and the public to make clear the harm of tar substances to human body, and avoid the concept that the lower the content, the safer it is.
If you want to restore your health, you must quit smoking first, and the best way to quit smoking is to stay away from second-hand smoke and avoid unscrupulous business slogans.
