Is there any adventure or fun in smoking? Definitely not! Don't be fooled by the funny advertisements of cigarette manufacturers. There is no "taste", no "fun" and no "adventure" in smoking cigarettes. These are just the slogans of cigarette companies that multiply their profits at the cost of precious human lives. Greedy multi-billion dollar cigarette manufacturers are quietly killing people without anyone noticing. According to a WHO report, every 6.5 seconds one person in the world dies prematurely from cancer, heart attack, respiratory disease or another type of tobacco-related disease. Tobacco is undoubtedly the fourth most common risk factor for disease worldwide. If you are a smoker, take a moment to think seriously and decide if you are mentally healthy. I highly doubt it because you are spending money to buy an item that not only risks your life by inadvertently causing numerous diseases to attack your body, but you are also risking the lives of other people who are forced to inhale secondhand smoke, which is more dangerous than smoking. If you smoke in your home, you also risk the lives of your spouse and children. Is it a wise decision to continue smoking? Say no to smoking if you want to live a normal healthy life without diseases. Why not make the bold decision NOW and quit smoking immediately! Are you ready to do so? Tobacco use kills nearly 10 million people each year, mostly in productive middle age. It is estimated that 75% of these deaths occur in developing countries, mainly due to the high number of smokers and the lack of medical facilities there. Due to lack of knowledge and education, the number of smokers in developing countries and poor households is increasing at an alarming rate. Illiterate smokers usually ignore the warnings written on cigarette packs. Sadly, the average amount poor households spend on tobacco is almost the same as the amount spent on education. A recent study in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, showed that the more educated people are, the less they smoke.
