Blood flow to the extremities is decreased (cold hands and feet).
Smoking decreases the oxygen supply, requiring a higher bloodpressure, thus causing extensive circulatory problems and
premature heart attacks. Smokers have difficulty running andexercising.
Air pollution (auto exhausts, industry wastes, etc.) increases thelung cancer rate of the smoker, but not of the non-smoker.
The time to recover from any specific ill, whether caused bysmoking or not, is much longer for the smoker. Often, a non-smoker
will survive a sickness from which he would have died had hesmoked.
The smoker's body requires more sleep every night. This extra sleepmust come from his spare time. Besides needing more sleep,smokers don't sleep as well.
Smokers are sick more often, Smoking destroys vitamins,
particularly vitamin C and the B's. Lower intelligence has beenrelated to smoking. In fact, smoking is both a cause and an effect oflower intelligence, just as smoking is both a cause and effect oflower income.
