Tobacco Smoking

As everybody knows, tobacco smoking is the practice of burning tobacco and ingesting the resulting smoke. The smoke may be inhaled, as is done with cigarettes, or released from the mouth, as is generally done with pipes and cigars. The practice encountered criticism from its first import into the Western world onward but embedded itself in certain strata of several societies before becoming widespread upon the introduction of automated cigarette-rolling apparatus. Smoking is the most common method of consuming tobacco, and tobacco is the most common substance smoked. The agricultural product is often mixed with additives and then combusted. The resulting smoke, which contains various active substances, the most significant of which is the addictive psychostimulant drug nicotine (a compound naturally found in tobacco), is absorbed through the alveoli in the lungs or the oral mucosa. Many substances in cigarette smoke, chiefly nicotine, trigger chemical reactions in nerve endings, which heighten heart rate, alertness and reaction time, among other things. Dopamine and endorphins are released, which are often associated with pleasure, leading to addiction. Many smokers begin during adolescence or early adulthood. Smoking by parents, siblings, and friends also encourages students to smoke. During the early stages, a combination of perceived pleasure acting as positive reinforcement and desire to respond to social peer pressure may offset the unpleasant symptoms of initial use, which typically include nausea and coughing. After an individual has smoked for some years, the avoidance of nicotine withdrawal symptoms and negative reinforcement become the key motivations to continue. There are a lot of cons for tobacco smoking. Besides addiction, they cause health issues like mouth or lung cancer, stroke, heart disease, asthma, COPD and emphysema. They also cause students to neglect their studies, and their reputation is devastated. Tobacco smoking can cause the place to become filthy, and at the same time, result in air pollution. To prevent tobacco smoking, one should know how to quit smoking. Do some beneficial activities such as reading and exercising to relieve stress. Governments should tighten laws about tobacco smoking, and increase the price of tobacco and cigarettes. We the people say no to smoking, we the people always in seventh heaven. Thank you.
