Tobacco smoking-related diseases
Tobacco smoke contains thousands of
compounds, many of which are toxic and thirties who are carcinogenic.
NICOTINE
It is what creates dependency:
- It causes vasoconstriction of the
coronary arteries in a few seconds to inhale
- It accelerates the pulse
- It increases blood pressure and
cardiac output.
- It increases blood levels of fatty
acids and platelet adhesion (RISK OF ARTERIAL THROMBOSIS)
- It lowers the levels of estrogen
which is responsible for early menopause and osteoporosis greater.
It is a psycho-active drugs.
TARS
They are potent carcinogens and
mutagens (causing gene mutations of chromosomes).
They alter the DNA, causing
mutations in particular gene P53 protein (PROTEIN INHIBITOR OF TUMOR IS THAT
PROMOTES THE OCCURRENCE INHIBITION OF TUMOR).
These tars are involved in pulmonary
paralysis treatment systems by damaging the pulmonary alveoli.
They fell by more effective immune
system.
THIS CARBON MONOXIDE
The gas (CO) damages the endothelium
of arteries and promotes atherosclerosis and increases the coronary sclerosis
because it generates hypoxia.
It is often responsible for heart
attacks even in young especially during efforts.
You should know that each cigarette
contains 12 mg of nicotine even if indicated 0.2 to 1 mg of each pack of
cigarettes
Mild to normal cigarettes contain
the same amount of nicotine and tar
TOBACCO-RELATED DISEASES
- And coronary artery disease
From the first seconds of inhalation
coronary spasm occurs
Tobacco causes a more severe
atherosclerosis sometimes
All arteries can be achieved:
brain, lower, abdominal aorta and
especially the members.
- Lung Diseases
Chronic bronchitis (see
BROCHOPNEUMOPATHIE CHRONIC OBSTRUCTIVE)
Emphysema
And especially lung cancer (see THIS
TERM)
- Other cancers
Bladder cancer.
kidney cancer.
head and neck cancer, esophageal
cancer, (INTERACTION WITH ALCOHOL alot BREEDS THE OCCURRENCE OF THESE CANCERS)
- Effects on fertility
Spermatogenesis is reduced
impotence is more common
In women, reduced fertility
increased risk of miscarriage layer
lower birth weight of the child
- Other adverse
effects
Tobacco alters the elastic fibers of
the skin, the skin is wrinkled and smoky looks easily 10 to 15 years older than
her actual age.
