Tobacco smoke contains over 5,000 chemicals including nicotine. Nicotine is highly addictive. Smokers smoke for the nicotine but are harmed by the tar and other chemicals.

Many of them can cause cancer. Others are poisonous such as hydrogen cyanide, carbon monoxide and ammonia. When you smoke these chemicals can damage your lungs but also pass into your blood and spread through your body. Smoking can affect every part of the body – from your skin to your brain.

Outside the lungs smoking causes heart attacks, strokes and cancer. On average, smokers live 10 years less than non-smokers. Smoking tobacco is the biggest avoidable cause of death.

Deciding to quit smoking makes you a winner – it benefits your health, those around you and your wallet!
