Is little smoking good for health?

Errr...no!\n\nI teach actuaries (people who calculate life insurance) and (after gender) it is THE major factor affecting your mortality.\n\nIncidently it has a greater detrimental effect on women than blokes.  Sorry!

Possible.  Smoking is bad for your health all the way around.  It has been known to restrict the arteries, thereby decreasing the bloodflow to the heart and brain.  So, I'm saying, yeah, sounds right.  I'm guessing he told you that to make sure you never start smoking, and I hope you never do.  Terrible, nasty, expensive habit (I know, I smoked for 11 years) that will only kill you early and painfully.  Don't bother with it.

Lots of good, little harm.  It acts as an antioxidant and has been shown beneficial to the cardiovascular system, and also may help with diabetes and breast cancer.  Note:  By little harm, I mean that none of my sources show any long-term harm.  Only short-term side effects such as stomach upset and headache.

I absolutely love smoking.  It relaxes me, it makes me happy...it is one of lifes little pleasures that I can really enjoy.  \n\nAs for the fine question, it should be the same (i.e., no more, no less) as for any type of littering.

yes.  stop smoking.  you'll live longer.  well, not that much longer.  i mean, you could get hit by a car or struck by lightening.  or the flu could do you in.  no matter.  regular smoking will take 10 years off your life.  of course the last 10 are usually pretty crappy, but you see my point.  i sure don't.

Actually, did you know that nicotine can help memory and people with dementia.  So to answer your question,  people who smoke are not necessarily retarded.  In fact they be be smarter.  But I would not advocate smoking\nhttp://www.health24.com/news/Alzheimers_and_dementia/1-890,25374.asp\n\ntry googling  nicotine and dementia.

yes, this is a good idea because peoples health will be better and those who dont smoke will not suffer from second hand smoking. my mother smokes and it bothers me a lot because of the diseases and other problems she can get just from smoking. Also because since all the other drugs such as pot is illegal smoking is also a drug therefore it too should be illegal.

Make the effort to shift your thinking from how good you think a smoke would be  -  to the good feelings you'll have when you are smoke-free. Drink or eat fruit or juice to keep your blood sugar up for a few days instead of nicotine doing that, and nibble on healthy snacks - nuts, veggies, etc.\nLots of help here: http://www.quitguide.com

No. Smoking cigarette's doesn't cure anything. Infact it causes problems (don't smoke).

Any kind of smoke is bad for you. If you smoke once in ahwile its not that bad. If you smoke as much as my roomate does then you may get cancer or have trouble breathing.

There's no doubt that smoking is not good for you but....\nI would be more concerned about the air you breathe daily!\nI would be more concerned about what we eat!laboratory experiments show that pigs can indeed be infected by Mad Cow brains--and hundreds of thousands of downer pigs, too sick or crippled by injury to even walk, arrive at U.S. slaughterhouses every year.This article also includes info on other meat sources as well! A good read and "food" for thought No pun intended!\nDid you know that the average person takes over 20,000 breaths a day.We spend our entire day breathing in and out and yet, most of the time, we don’t even think about it.  We’re not aware of a function which is vital for sustaining life.  \nOf the air cancer risk calculated by EDF for the U.S. as a whole, 60 percent is from mobile sources and 26 percent from small business 'area; sources, with the remaining 14 percent from industrial 'point' sources.Wouldn't cigarettes be considered an air cancer risk since we breathe in the smoke?\nMore people die each year in the United States from medical errors than from highway accidents, breast cancer or AIDS, \n\nSo you see it doesn't really matter where you live,how much money you have,or what you do to earn a living,we all breathe the same air and buy our food from the same food chain,From the minute you are born,you begin to die,so don't take life too seriously,you're not going to come out of it alive,and a hundred years from now,nobody's going to give a rats behind about you any ways!so chill,don't worry be happy! and smile!

Smoking KILLS\n\nEvery year hundreds of thousands of people around the world die from diseases caused by smoking.\n\nOne in two lifetime smokers will die from their habit. Half of these deaths will occur in middle age.\n\nTobacco smoke also contributes to a number of  cancers.\n\nThe mixture of nicotine and carbon monoxide in each cigarette you smoke temporarily increases your heart rate and blood pressure, straining your heart and blood vessels. \n\nThis can cause heart attacks and stroke. It slows your blood flow, cutting off oxygen to your feet and hands. Some smokers end up having their limbs \namputated.\n\nTar coats your lungs like soot in a chimney and causes cancer. A 20-a-day smoker breathes in up to a full cup (210 g) of tar in a year.\n\nChanging to low-tar cigarettes does not help because smokers usually take deeper puffs and hold the smoke in for longer, dragging the tar deeper into their lungs.\n\nCarbon monoxide robs your muscles, brain and body tissue of oxygen, making your whole body and especially your heart  work harder. Over time, your airways swell up and let less air into your lungs.\n\nSmoking causes disease and is a slow way to die. The strain put on your body by smoking often causes years of suffering. Emphysema is an illness that slowly rots your lungs. People with emphysema often get bronchitis again and again, and suffer lung and heart failure.\n\nLung cancer from smoking  is caused by the tar in tobacco smoke. Men who smoke are ten times more likely to die from lung cancer than non-smokers.\n\nHeart disease and strokes are also more common among smokers than non-smokers. \n\nSmoking causes fat deposits to narrow and block blood vessels which leads to heart attack. \n\nSmoking causes around one in five deaths from heart disease. \n\nIn younger people, three out of four deaths from heart disease are due to smoking.

Hmm.  Well, in Safety Education a million years ago, I learned cigarette *smoke* contains hydrogen cyanide, among other yummy things.

Drinking in moderation won't hurt you, they say it might even be good for you. Yet any amount of nicotine will hurt your lungs over time.

Your first question shows you are not a thinker so you might be fine. If you look like you have aids maybe you have. If you smoke too much you will be thin. It is hard to guess your condition. Maybe you have never been healthy. If all is ok and you just don't eat enough try grains especially fresh ground wheat. The milk from a goat will make you fat in a month. Try to see what we see when you give us the information.

Any surgery will benefit from being nicotine-free.  Tobacco products reduce the blood flow to healing areas on our bodies thus slowing the healing process.  If it were my body, I would choose no tobacco before surgery.
