The Other Effects of Smoking



       There are some other effects that come through smoking besides the broadly mentioned possibility of developing cancer or dying of the smokers. The effects of smoking cigarettes on human’s life are serious, like we have known already. But a threat to health doesn’t seem to be a good reason anymore for quitting smoking.  The smokers somehow block themselves and ignore all the information that is given to them even if we say the fact every year hundreds of thousands of people around the world die from diseases caused by smoking cigarettes. But it’s like not enough bad effects , smoking also gives bad effects to your appearance, financial, and also give  bad effects to others.
The first effect of cigarette smoking is reducing your appearance’s quality. Smokers usually have smelly hair, breath, clothes, and, they will make a smelly room if they smoke indoors. If someone smokes in a room, the stench of cigarette smoke will be very penetrating and hard to remove. Even if the person quits smoking the odor remains for a long time. It also stains the teeth yellow or sometimes even brown. Since this effect is long term, most people are not aware of it when they begin smoking. Yellow teeth are disgusting because they give an unhygienic image and make people look older. With the appearance like that, people commonly avoid smokers. Some certain occupation also do not accept a smoker-employee. The truth is that a cigarette stain is very hard to eliminate from the teeth, and it will probably end up costing a considerable amount of money.
The second effect of smoking is that it will eventually end up affecting the smoker’s financial. Depending on the country the prices of cigarettes can differ. But even at an affordable price the regular consumption of cigarettes will eventually take its economic cost. It affects their family’s finance and also the country’s economy. Smokers have to spend on amount of money to buy cigarettes which is unnecessary waste. Moreover, it also affects the country’s economy. Yearly, our country spends on a lot of money to reduce environment pollution caused from smoking cigarettes. A person addicted to smoking may use every way to get a cigarette each day even if they cannot buy food anymore because of the over-limit smoking’s cost.
The third effect is that smoking gives bad effects to others especially those who are non-smokers. Smoking cigarettes not only affects smokers but also affects people living around them. Actually, it also make non- smokers’ health get worse. When someone smokes cigarettes, the other people who do not smoke will feel choked on the smoke and cough. Therefore, people do not smoke but living together with smokers are threatened their health especially children. Adults get lung cancer, asthma and other diseases; children get pneumonia. Besides, non- smokers feel annoyed about the appearance of smokers. Smokers usually have typical signs such as yellow teeth, yellow fingers especially smelly clothes which make people living around them very annoyed. When I sit near smokers, I can’t bear bad smell from their body and I must keep away of them.
These are only three out of many other effects that cigarette smoking could have, but to any sensible person they are more than enough to realize that smoking is bad. People can’t possibly be proud of calling themselves smokers. It is terrible for health as well as personal appearance. In the end, those who live in poverty, stink of smoke, and have yellow teeth are the people who are affected the most by this life threatening activity. I hope that if you are smoking, it is always better to stop. If you don’t smoke, then do not start. You will be glad you didn’t.
