Kenapa sih Rokok itu Berbahaya?

Although there are many rumors about the danger of smoking, the fact is that there are still many people who smoke. In fact, Indonesia is the third country with the most smokers in the world after China and India. What is the real danger of smoking for health? This is what the doctor said.

In one cigarette stick, there are about 600 ingredients that if burned can produce more than 7,000 chemicals, of which 69 of which are poisonous and carcinogenic or cause cancer. The components in the cigarette can be differentiated into two forms: gas phase and the neutral phase or the particulate phase.

Gas gas is a variety of dangerous gases produced by smoking, such as carbon monoxide, benzene, formaldehyde, hydrogen cyanide. Carbon monoxide, a toxic gas that is easily bound to hemoglobin in the red blood cells, so that the hemoglobin that should be bound to oxygen is actually bound to carbon monoxide and causes body lines to lack oxygen. If it happens continuously, it can also cause damage to the blood vessels.

Benzene, a carcinogenic substance, can increase the risk of leukemia or blood cancer. Formaldehyde, causes irritation in the eyes, nose, and jaw, if this substance is constantly exposed, it can cause cancer. Cyanide Hydrogen, a poison gas that can have a bad effect on the heart, digestive system, lungs, and thyroid.

Next, tar or particulate waste, which is the residue of smoking. Tar can stick to the lungs and can damage the cilia or fine hair on the lungs, which helps to clean the lungs from stinging or stinging, thus increasing the risk of lung disease. Tar can also stick to the mouth, teeth, fingertips, and gums of smokers, causing yellow.

Tar also contains various chemicals that are largely made up of nicotine, heavy metals such as nickel, and dangerous carcinogens such as TSN, PAH, and arsenic.

Nicotine Nicotine works in the brain to boost the increase of adrenaline and dopamine hormones that cause smokers to feel happy, more focused and concentrated. When you stop smoking, these two hormones decrease and at that time the smoker will start to feel anxious, dizzy and lose concentration, causing smoking addiction.

Adrenaline also plays a role in promoting heart rate and increasing the number of blood clotting cells that cause blood clots. If the clot is directly in the brain, it will cause a stroke, heart attack, liver failure, hypertension, genital organ, impotency, and dementia. In the placenta of pregnant women, it causes the growth of the fetus, premature birth, and death.

The dangerous material turned out to be not only dangerous for the smoker, but also for people around him. Why is it like that? Here's the story. The smoke inhaled into the smoker's lungs is called the main smoke, where the tobacco was burned at a very high temperature.

Smoke coming from the end of the burnt cigarette is called side cigarette smoke, where at that time the cigarette was burnt at a lower temperature so that the fuel burning was not perfect and resulted in four times more danger for the smoker.

Smoking residues can also stick to hair, skin, clothes, carpets, walls, or inside cars, which is called third-hand smoke. This residue can last for days to months and can undergo chemical transformation, resulting in more dangerous carcinogenic pollutants.

It's only a fraction of thousands of dangerous substances in smoking, which not only affects the health of smokers, but also pollutes the air and is dangerous for the health of people around them. So it's better to avoid smoking. For those who still smoke, it's best to avoid smoking in areas without smoking, because everyone has the right to breathe air free of smoke. This is what the doctor said about the danger of smoking.
