problems.
Smoking has been linked to lung disease, cancers,
and heart disease.
Health Risks of Tobacco Use
About 90 percent of
adult smokers

Tobacco is an addictive and toxic drug and a
carcinogen.
Carcinogen
A cancer-causing
substance
Tar
Cigarette smoke contains tar.
Tar
A thick, sticky, dark fluid
produced when tobacco burns
Tar
paralyzing and
destroying cilia
Tar damages
a smoker’s
respiratory
system by
destroying the
alveoli
damaging lung

Carbon Monoxide
Carbon monoxide is also in cigarette smoke. It
deprives the body’s tissues and cells of oxygen.

cyanide and arsenic,
which are in tobacco

The smoke from pipes and cigars also causes
serious health consequences.
Cigars contain significantly more nicotine and
produce more tar and carbon monoxide than
cigarettes.

The harmful chemicals of smokeless tobacco are
absorbed into the body at levels up to three times
the amount of a single cigarette.
Smokeless tobacco
Tobacco that is sniffed
through the nose, held in the
mouth, or chewed
Pipes, Cigars, and Smokeless Tobacco
Using smokeless tobacco also irritates the
sensitive tissues of the mouth, causing
