What are the dangers of smoking?

Your inspiration for kicking the habit should remain clear throughout your journey. Giving up can be tough, so remember to hold on tight to the reason you’re looking to go smoke-free. If this has anything to do with health, it can be pretty motivating to fully understand the dangers.

Tobacco use is the leading cause of preventable death in Ireland with almost 6,000 smokers dying each year from tobacco related diseases while many more live with debilitating illnesses caused by smoking. Not only this but smoking is also stated to be the cause of 70% of all lung cancer cases.

Smoking also increases your risk of developing other health conditions, including:

• Heart attacks
• Coronary heart disease
• Stroke
• Peripheral vascular disease (damaged blood vessels)
• Cerebrovascular disease (damaged arteries which supply blood to the brain)
• Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease
• Pneumonia

There’s an increased risk of miscarriage, premature births and still births if a woman smokes when pregnant[5].
