500 cigarettes
[spoken word: krishna sudhir (ted talk, sample)
cigarettes aren’t good for us, and that’s hardly news—we’ve known about the dangers of smoking for decades. but how exactly do cigarettes harm us? let’s look at what happens as their ingredients make their way through our bodies and how we benefit physically when we finally give up smoking. with each inhalation, smoke brings its more than 5,000 chemical substances into contact with the body’s tissues. from the start, tar, a black, resinous material, begins to coat thе t++th and gums, damaging tooth enamel and evеntually causing decay. over time, smoke also damages nerve endings in the nose, causing loss of smell. inside the airways and lungs, smoke increases the likelihood of infections, as well as chronic diseases like bronchitis and emphysema. it does this by damaging the cilia, tiny hairlike structures whose job it is to keep the airways clean. it then fills the alveoli, tiny air sacs that enable the exchange of oxygen and carbon dioxide between the lungs and blood. a toxic gas called carbon monoxide crosses that membrane into the blood, binding to hemoglobin and displacing the oxygen it would usually transport around the body. that’s one of the reasons smoking can lead to oxygen deprivation and shortness of breath. within about 10 seconds, the bloodstream carries a stimulant called nicotine to the brain, triggering the release of dopamine and other neurotransmitters, including endorphins, that create the pleasurable sensations which make smoking highly addictive. nicotine and other chemicals from the cigarette simultaneously cause constriction of blood vessels and damage their delicate endothelial lining, restricting blood flow. these vascular effects lead to thickening of blood vessel walls and enhance blood platelet stickiness, increasing the likelihood that clots will form and trigger heart attacks and strokes. many of the chemicals inside cigarettes can trigger dangerous mutations in the body’s dna that make cancers form. additionally, ingredients like +rs+nic and nickel may disrupt the process of dna repair, thus compromising the body’s ability to fight…
