Does Smoking Make You Stupid?

Post by HeLLSniPeR* » Fri Jun 26, 2009 7:26 pm

Smoking may diminish the speed and accuracy of your thinking and bring down your IQ.

The association was a surprising result of a study of more than 170 men that initially set out to examine alcoholism's long-term effect on the brain. While it was confirmed that alcoholism is associated with thinking problems and lower IQ, analysis showed that long-term smoking has similar effects.

The effects were most pronounced among those who had smoked the longest

There is nothing more unattractive then a women that smokes.
There is nothing cool about it...it looks plain stupid to me.
In high school I dated a girl that smoked...it was like kissing an ashtray.
But we all have our flaws even me...but at least I won't die of cancer.

The way I see it is:
It's not THAT you are smoking that makes you stupid,
It's WHAT you are smoking that makes you stupid!!! 8)

Smoking does this.
• Smoking gives you bad breath
• Causes wrinkles earlier in life
• Makes your hair and clothes smell
• Can affect your sports performance -
• You won't be able to run as fast or as far.
• Stains your teeth makes your skin dry
• It will crease your lips from pursing them around the cigarette.
• It will make your skin tougher and not as soft.
• It will mix up the fluids in your brain.


In the long term
• Smoking can cause Coronary Heart Disease
• Emphysema
• Lung Cancer
• Throat Cancer
• Mouth Cancer
• Bladder Cancer Infertility in men and women
• Stomach Ulcers

"I won't get addicted!" Do you really believe that

"Teenagers who smoke one or more cigarettes a day show evidence of addiction similar to that seen in addicted smokers. Addiction to nicotine is usually established in young smokers within a year of first experimenting with cigarettes."
Royal College of Physicians of London.

If you wish to give up smoking try to take things a day at a time, it is addictive and there are some after effects. Don't punish yourself if things go wrong and you have a cigarette, this will only make you unhappy and make you want to smoke more. Put things behind you and try again.

Remember that you can do it! There are many ways that people try to stop smoking and these include hypnotism and acupuncture. If you do want to give up you can consult with your doctor for extra support.


" Teeth and fingers are stained a horrible
yellow-brown
and gums are more susceptible to unsightly diseases, like gingivitis "
Why do people smoke?
" Smoking kills over 300 people a day in the UK "
Some people smoke because they think it's cool, but smoking stains your teeth and fingers, it makes your breath stink and the smell lingers on your clothes and hair. It's bad for your skin and complexion. So to smell better and look better, you know what to do!


Some people smoke because they think it'll dull their appetite, sorry folks but smoking wont help you loose weight! You won't necessarily put on weight if you give up smoking either. People may turn to food when they're trying to give up smoking but all you have to do is choose healthy snacks and find something active to do instead of having a drag.

Some people think that it calms their nerves, sorry that's another myth! Smoking just helps you deal with the withdrawal symptoms you feel because you are addicted to nicotine. Smoking doesn't relieve stress at all.
Whats in a cigerette?
" One cigarette contains 4000 chemicals

Cigarette smoke contains over 4000 different chemicals including noxious gases and tiny droplets of tar, which causes cancer, and nicotine, a highly addictive drug.



When you take a puff on that cigerette you are inhaling smoke that contains chemicals found in insecticide, explosives and floor cleaner; Ant poison, nail polish remover, weed killer, self tanning lotion and aviation fuel
