1. Cigarettes carry germs: The latest research found that cigarettes carry many germs and will be inhaled during smoking. Their pathogenic mechanism is still unclear, but it is an indisputable fact that cigarettes carry germs.
2. Smoking affects sexual function: Smoking will affect blood circulation, reduce genital blood flow, and then lead to sexual arousal difficulties (including men and women). A large-scale survey in China in 2007 also found that 20% of male erectile dysfunction was related to smoking.
3. Smokers have poor sleep quality: A study by Johns Hopkins University in the United States found that smokers are more likely to feel sleepy than non-smokers after waking up overnight. Researchers point out that the reason is that smokers can't get nicotine when they sleep at night. Although they seem to sleep soundly, in fact, their sleep will be disturbed many times and the quality of sleep will decline.
4. The bones of smokers are very fragile: It is found that the bone density of female smokers will decrease by 2.3%-3.3% every 10, and the decrease of bone density will greatly increase the incidence of fractures and osteoporosis. In postmenopausal women, the risk is even greater.
5. Smoking increases the risk of deafness and blindness: The latest research found that compared with non-smokers, the risk of hearing loss of smokers increased by nearly 70%. A large-scale survey of more than 20,000 men found that smoking also increases the chances of male vision loss. Smoking also increases the possibility of macular degeneration, which is the number one "killer" of vision.
6. Smoking loves psoriasis: Many studies have shown that smoking every day has a great correlation with the increased risk of psoriasis. Smoking more than 20 cigarettes a day will increase the risk of psoriasis.
7. Most smokers have cold hands and feet: smoking hinders the smooth operation of human blood circulation and makes blood supply to hands and feet insufficient, so smokers are prone to cold hands and feet, and fingers and toes are more prone to frostbite.
8. Cigarettes+oral contraceptives = heart disease: The latest research in Britain found that smoking women taking contraceptives at the same time will increase the probability of cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases such as heart disease and stroke by 10 times. The reason is that smoking will increase blood viscosity and easily lead to thrombosis; Birth control pills can also thicken blood. The double effect of "smoking+birth control pills" increased the incidence by 1 fold.
9. Smoking reduces the drug effect: Smoking will affect the effect of liver enzyme therapy drugs, so smokers sometimes need to increase the dose to produce the same drug effect. After quitting smoking, the dosage of some drugs will be reduced.
10. Smoking is easy to cause fire: The survey found that the risk of burns of family members of smokers is 6.6 times higher than that of family members of non-smokers. Among the various causes leading to fatal house fires, smoking accounts for 55%, ranking first.
