Cigarettes Cured and finely cut tobacco rolled in a paper.
Cigarettes usually have a filter on the end. More than 4,000
different chemicals have been found in tobacco and tobacco smoke.
Among these are more than 60 chemicals that are known to cause
cancer.
Slide 3
Smokeless Tobacco The two main types of smokeless tobacco in
the United States are chewing tobacco and snuff Although some forms
of snuff can be used by sniffing or inhaling into the nose, most
smokeless tobacco users place the product in their cheek or between
their gum and cheek. Smokeless tobacco contains 28 cancer-causing
agents (carcinogens). Examples: Snuff, Snus, Spit tobacco, Dip,
Chew
Slide 4
Cigars and Cigarillos Cigars contain higher level of nicotine
than cigarettes. For those cigar smokers who inhale, the nicotine
is absorbed through the lungs as quickly as it is with cigarettes.
For those who do not inhale, the nicotine is absorbed more slowly
through the lining of the mouth. Little cigars or cigarillos are
very similar in size and shape of cigarettes, have filters and are
filled with pipe tobacco. Little cigars are often flavored (e.g.,
chocolate, cherry, apple, mango).
Slide 5
Pipes Pipes are often reusable and consist of a chamber or
bowl, stem and mouthpiece. Tobacco is placed into the bowl and lit.
The smoke is than drawn through the stem and mouthpiece and
inhaled.
Slide 6
Electronic Cigarettes or E- cigarettes The e-cigarette is a
battery-powered device that contains a cartridge filled with
nicotine, flavor and other chemicals. The e-cigarette turns the
nicotine and other chemicals into a vapor that is then inhaled by
the user. The user will puff on it, similar to a cigarette, and
receive a vaporized solution of propylene glycol/nicotine. Recent
studies by the FDA show that the e-cigarette contains known
carcinogens and toxic chemicals that are harmful to the user.
Slide 7
Hookah is a pipe used to smoke Shisha, a combination of tobacco
and fruit or vegetable that is heated and the smoke is filtrated
through water. According to a World Health Organization advisory, a
typical one-hour session of hookah smoking exposes the user to 100
to 200 times the volume of smoke inhaled from a single cigarette.
Hookah smoking also delivers significant levels of nicotine the
addictive substance in tobacco.
Slide 8
This type of tobacco is finely processed to dissolve on the
tongue or in the mouth. Varieties include strips, sticks, orbs and
compressed tobacco lozenges. They are smoke and spit free, are held
together by food-grade binders and look similar to a breath mint or
candy. This product does contain nicotine.
Slide 9
Bidis (pronounced "bee-dees") are small, thin hand-rolled
cigarettes imported to the United States primarily from India and
other Southeast Asian countries. They have higher concentrations of
nicotine, tar, and carbon monoxide than conventional cigarettes
sold in the United States, so are even more addictive than
cigarettes. Bidis are carcinogenic.
Slide 10
Kreteks (pronounced "cree-techs") are sometimes referred to as
clove cigarettes. As with bidis, standardized machine-smoking
analyses indicate that kreteks deliver more nicotine, carbon
monoxide, and tar than conventional cigarettes.

Slide 13
Brain Chemistry changes: The addictive substance causes the
body to want more of the drug. The user may experience withdrawal
symptoms. Respiration and heart rate increase: Breathing during
physical activities becomes difficult Endurance decreased Nicotine
may cause irregular heart rate
Slide 14
Taste buds are dulled and appetite reduced: You lose your
ability to enjoy some foods Users have bad breath, yellowed teeth,
and smelly hair, skin, and clothes: These effects can become
permanent over continued use.
Slide 15
Chronic Bronchitis: Cilia in bronchi become damaged and useless
Creates a build up of tar in the lungs Chronic coughing and
excessive mucus secretion Emphysema: A disease that destroys the
tin air sacs in the lungs Air sacs become less elastic, making it
more difficult for the lungs to absorb oxygen. Barrel-chested
people Advanced emphysema patients use up to 80% of their energy
just to breathe
Slide 16
Lung Cancer: Cilia and bronchi are destroyed, and extra mucus
cannot be expelled. Cancerous cells multiply, and move to the lungs
Almost 90% of lung cancer deaths are caused by smoking. Coronary
heart disease and stroke: Nicotine constricts the blood vessels,
which cuts down blood flow to the bodys limbs. Nicotine contributes
to plaque build up in the blood vessels, which leads to hardened
arteries (arteriosclerosis). Arteries become clogged, increasing
the risk of heart attack and stroke.
Slide 17
A weakened immune system: Long-term tobacco use makes the body
more vulnerable to disease.
Slide 18
Slide 19
Costs to Society: Tobacco related illnesses cost the US about
$165 billion a year. Productivity suffers when smokers call in for
tobacco-related illnesses Cost to individuals: 1 pack a day=$1500 a
year Legal Consequences: Selling tobacco to minors is illegal
Tobacco usage on school property can lead to suspension or
explusion.
Slide 20
Environmental Tobacco Smoke (ETS): Secondhand smoke- air that
has been contaminated by smoke Contains more than 4000 chemical
compounds 3,000 deaths a year from lung cancer Mainstream smoke:
The smoke exhaled from the lungs of a smoker Sidestream Smoke: The
smoke from the burning end of a cigarette, pipe, or cigar More
dangerous than mainstream smoke
Slide 21
Smoking during pregnancy is harmful to the fetus Carbon
Monoxide reduces the oxygen levels in the blood of the mother and
fetus Smoking during pregnancy can lead to: Impaired fetal growth,
spontaneous miscarriage, prenatal death, premature delivery, low
birth weight, deformities, stillbirths, Sudden Infant Death
Syndrome (SIDS)
Slide 22
Secondhand smoke can slow lung development. Children who live
with smokers tend to have weaker lungs than children of non-smokers
Children of smokers usually have: Severe asthma attacks, ear
infections, respiratory tract infections, sore throats, Children
learn by example
