Three thousand children smoke their first cigarette each day, and 20% of American teens smoke. Teenage smoking can lead to serious health issues like decreased lung function and premature death. Peer pressure and stress are factors that may lead teens to start smoking. Doctors should screen teens for smoking and suggest interventions like counseling or nicotine replacement therapy to help them quit.
Alcohol has many damaging effects on the physical brain and its communication pathways. It causes changes to brain structures like the prefrontal cortex through long-term use and affects neurotransmitters like GABA, serotonin, and dopamine by overexciting or inhibiting them. Positve reinforcement from the pleasurable effects of drinking activates the brain's reward system and motivates continued drinking, while negative reinforcement comes from drinking to alleviate withdrawal symptoms.
This is a presentation on Cigarette smoking and its ill effects
which contains the reason for smoking , why it is addictive and the short term and long term side effects of cigarette smoking.
The document discusses the harmful effects of cigarette smoke. It begins by defining cigarette smoke as a complex mixture of over 4000 chemicals, including nicotine, carbon monoxide, arsenic, formaldehyde, lead and other toxins. The document then discusses how these chemicals can cause cancer, heart disease, lung disease and other serious illnesses. For example, it notes that cigarette smoking causes over 3 million deaths annually worldwide.

Finally, it summarizes a case study that found higher oxidative stress biomarkers and lower antioxidant levels in smokers compared to non-smokers.
Alcohol consumption is prohibited in Islam for several reasons:
1) It causes tremendous societal harms like increased crime rates, broken homes, and mental illness based on statistics.
2) Both the Quran and Hadith explicitly prohibit alcohol consumption. The Quran calls it "Satan's handiwork" and the Hadith state it is "the mother of all evils."
3) Alcohol inhibits the brain's inhibitory center, removing self-control and often leading people to do things they would not normally do, like abusive behavior.
Consumption has dire individual and societal consequences like increased rates of rape, incest, and disease transmission. Islam aims to preserve human's natural state, so

This document discusses alcoholism and its effects on families and society. It defines alcoholism as losing control over drinking behavior and becoming physically and emotionally addicted. The stages of alcoholism are described from social drinking to dependence and loss of control. Signs of alcoholism include using alcohol to cope with anger and changing social patterns. Families of alcoholics experience guilt, unpredictable behavior, violence and neglect. Alcoholism puts stress on society through accidents and increased health issues. Treatment programs help alcoholics and their families address the causes and cope with the conditions of alcoholism.
Alcohol is considered a drug because it causes intoxication and changes a person's physical and mental state. The short-term effects of alcohol include irritating the digestive system, increasing heart rate, causing dehydration and making the liver work harder. It also acts as a depressant on the nervous system, impairing judgment, coordination and mood. Long-term alcohol abuse can cause permanent damage to organs like the liver, resulting in conditions like cirrhosis, and the brain, potentially leading to dementia. Binge drinking or drinking above the legal limit puts one at risk for these long-term health consequences.
Alcohol has been consumed by humans for thousands of years, dating back to at least 7000 BC in India and Mesopotamia. It was commonly used for medicinal purposes in the 16th century. By the 18th century, alcoholism had become widespread, leading the US to ban alcohol nationwide in 1920. Today, alcoholism remains a significant problem, as an estimated 15 million Americans suffer from it and 40% of car accidents involve alcohol. Alcohol is classified as a depressant and is absorbed through the stomach and small intestine into the bloodstream. While moderate consumption may provide some heart benefits, alcohol can seriously harm the body's organs and nervous system as well as negatively impact families and lead to legal and social problems
Drinking alcohol affects the body in several ways that can impact health and safety. It is quickly absorbed into the bloodstream and can cause physical and mental impairment leading to injuries. Heavy or long-term drinking poses serious risks like liver disease, brain damage, and heart problems. While moderate drinking may provide some heart benefits, alcohol affects men and women differently due to physiological differences and is more likely to harm women's health.
Alcohol is a major public health concern, contributing to over 2.5 million deaths per year globally. It has a long history of use dating back thousands of years. Alcohol dependence is characterized by impaired control over drinking and continued use despite consequences. Treatment involves managing withdrawal, brief interventions, rehabilitation programs, medications, and counseling. Physicians play an important role in identifying alcoholism and guiding treatment.
Alcoholism is an addiction to alcohol that is chronic and sometimes fatal. It affects around 208 million people worldwide. Alcohol can lead to dependence, tolerance, and withdrawal symptoms. Problems that alcoholism can cause include not doing well in school or work, family problems, financial issues from spending too much money on alcohol, neglecting or abusing children or spouses, and becoming homeless or living in poverty. The body is also negatively impacted, with headaches, sleep issues, low blood sugar, dehydration, and gastrointestinal effects being problems associated with alcoholism.
Smoking is the largest preventable cause of disease and premature death. Nicotine reaches the brain within 10 seconds of inhaling smoke and has been found throughout the body, including breast milk. Cancer-causing agents in tobacco smoke damage genes controlling cell growth, causing abnormal or rapid cell reproduction leading to lung diseases, heart disease, cancer, and other health issues. People should quit smoking to save money, improve health, and enhance taste and smell. Governments implement anti-smoking campaigns and policies like raising tobacco taxes and restricting product promotion to encourage smoking prevention and cessation.

This document discusses reasons why people may choose to use drugs or alcohol, the health risks of various substances, and encouragement to avoid substance abuse. It notes common reasons for initially using substances like stress, peer pressure, and curiosity. However, it outlines many health dangers of long-term use for cigarettes, alcohol, marijuana, prescription drugs like Ambien and Seroquel, and opioids like Dilaudid and Xanax. The risks include addiction, brain damage, heart and lung problems, mental health issues, and other physical harm. In the end, it encourages stopping substance use for one's long-term well-being.
Tobacco use is the leading preventable cause of disease and death in the United States, causing over 12 million deaths between 1964 and 2004 from cancer and heart disease. Smokeless tobacco has been directly linked to various cancers as well as gum disease and tooth loss, and its use has significantly increased among American youth. Alcohol addiction is a compulsive need for intoxicating liquids like beer, wine, and liquor that can destroy brain cells and potentially cause brain damage as well as harm vision, sexual function, circulation, nutrition, and water retention.
This document provides a chronological overview of the history of tobacco use and the growing scientific understanding of the health effects of smoking. It traces tobacco use from its introduction to Europe in the 1500s, the rise of cigarette popularity and mass production in the late 1800s/early 1900s, and the numerous scientific studies from the early 1900s onward that established the link between smoking and cancer and other diseases. It highlights key events like the Surgeon General's reports of 1964 and later that definitively stated smoking causes health issues like cancer. The document covers the tobacco industry's tactics to counter these findings and downplay health risks as well.
This document discusses alcoholism and drug abuse. It defines alcoholism as a chronic disease characterized by impaired control over alcohol use and prioritizing drinking over other activities. Various types of drug abuse are also outlined, including heroin, cocaine, and prescription drugs. The document then examines the physical, psychological, and social effects of both short-term and long-term alcohol consumption. Lastly, it explores advantages and disadvantages of alcohol use as well as the social impacts of alcoholism, such as poverty, unemployment, and violence.
This document discusses whether smoking and tobacco products should be banned. It notes that tobacco kills one person every six seconds globally. While tobacco benefits the economy through jobs and tax revenue, smoking severely weakens health and increases the risks of various diseases and early death. It can also harm non-smokers through secondhand smoke. Smoking places a large economic burden on societies and governments who must spend on healthcare and fire damage. Although smoking may temporarily relieve stress, it ultimately damages long-term health and productivity. Therefore, the document concludes that smoking should be banned over time to protect public health, despite the economic costs, as the health and lives of citizens should be the top priority.
Rahul Patel, a class 12 student, conducted an investigatory project on the topic of cigarette smoking. He acknowledged those who helped him, including his principal, physics teacher, parents, and friends. The project included sections on smoking and its health effects such as addiction, diseases, and infections. It discussed how smoking affects lung tissue and the signs of nicotine addiction.
Tobacco cultivation has a history of over 8,000 years. It was introduced in India by Portuguese traders in 1600 and became a valuable commodity. Over time, tobacco was assimilated into Indian culture due to its perceived medicinal properties and addictiveness. India is now the world's second largest producer and consumer of tobacco. Tobacco plays a significant economic role but also has high social costs due to health issues associated with consumption.
