hi all,

i was reading some literature on the cigarette and one thing caught my attention and focus...

to any average ordinary smoker smoking is very relaxing and feels good too, but once the value of nicortine in the body goes beyond the normal level and remains at that, the addiction sets in...or so i think.

fortunately, when the cigarette is burning it emits some smoke which has the following known chemical composition...

1. Tar
2. Nicotine
3. Carbon monoxide (CO)
4. N-nitrosonornicotine
5. N-nitrosoanatabine
6. 4-(N-nitrosomethylamino)-1-(3-pyridyl)-1- butanone
7. Benzo[a]pyrene
8. 1-aminonaphthalene
9. 2-aminonaphthalene
10.3-aminobiphenyl
11.4-aminobiphenyl
12.Ammonia
13.Hydrogen cyanide
14.Formaldehyde
15.Acetaldehyde
16.Acetone
17.Acrolein
18.Propionaldehyde
19.Crotonaldehyde
20.Butyraldehyde
21.1,3-Butadiene
22.Isoprene
23.Acrylonitrile
24.Benzene
25.Toluene

unfortunately, there are other 4000 chemicals in the cigarette smoke which are known to exist albeit in small proportions..

don't celebrate yet, @ mlefu...sadly, there are 597 chemical additives in that cigarette that you smoke...and here we go..

...cigar?!...and to imagine that Hitler committed suicide with capsule No. 13...

no wonder those who smoke after meals have 2 S**t immediately!!!!!!!!

Its sad how many xmicals we ingest in food,breath in air...cancer is the new hiv aids,its even worse....now its a matter of how strong your genes and immunity are coz mutations are occuring too frequently and one day your luck may run out.

Kaigangio bwana.what number are you in the board of directors NACADA? How come BAT is making profits when using all these chemicals

This s#*t is enough to make anyone with half a brain to stop smoking! The next time anyone smokes close to me I am shooting him there and then. I'm sure the judge will understand - self defense!!!

NACADA should come up with an advert, where a serious sounding dude mentions all this chemicals and it might just work wonders!

You know how this smokers reason. They normally ask themselves, why kill myself for free whn I can do it at a cost [of two packs of cigarettes a day!]. No need to die a cheap death!


Maybe BAT is trying to do Kenya a favour! They are trying to kill as many smokers as possible - in the shortest time - so that eventually we will have no smokers left in Kenya!!!

Reminds me of a guy with very warped logic. He says: I don't support underage drinking. That is why when I get into a bar, I try to drink as much beer as possible so that when the teenagers come, they find none left!

This reminds me of the campaign for the banning of DHMO - Dihydrogen monoxide.... here goes:

=============
The Invisible Killer

Dihydrogen monoxide is colorless, odorless, tasteless, and kills uncounted thousands of people every year. Most of these deaths are caused by accidental inhalation of DHMO, but the dangers of dihydrogen monoxide do not end there. Prolonged exposure to its solid form causes severe tissue damage. Symptoms of DHMO ingestion can include excessive sweating and urination, and possibly a bloated feeling, nausea, vomiting and body electrolyte imbalance. For those who have become dependent, DHMO withdrawal means certain death.

Dihydrogen monoxide:

* is also known as hydroxyl acid, and is the major component of acid rain.
* contributes to the "greenhouse effect."
* may cause severe burns.
* contributes to the erosion of our natural landscape.
* accelerates corrosion and rusting of many metals.
* may cause electrical failures and decreased effectiveness of automobile brakes.
* has been found in excised tumors of terminal cancer patients.

Contamination Is Reaching Epidemic Proportions!

Quantities of dihydrogen monoxide have been found in almost every stream, lake, and reservoir in America today. But the pollution is global, and the contaminant has even been found in Antarctic ice. DHMO has caused millions of dollars of property damage in the midwest, and recently California.

Despite the danger, dihydrogen monoxide is often used:

* as an industrial solvent and coolant.
* in nuclear power plants.
* in the production of styrofoam.
* as a fire retardant.
* in many forms of cruel animal research.
* in the distribution of pesticides. Even after washing, produce remains contaminated by this chemical.
* as an additive in certain "junk-foods" and other food products.

Companies dump waste DHMO into rivers and the ocean, and nothing can be done to stop them because this practice is still legal. The impact on wildlife is extreme, and we cannot afford to ignore it any longer!

The Horror Must Be Stopped!

The American government has refused to ban the production, distribution, or use of this damaging chemical due to its "importance to the economic health of this nation." In fact, the navy and other military organizations are conducting experiments with DHMO, and designing multi-billion dollar devices to control and utilize it during warfare situations. Hundreds of military research facilities receive tons of it through a highly sophisticated underground distribution network. Many store large quantities for later use.

Smoking is a bad habit. I smoked for 5 years and it was difficult for me to live a day without a cigarette. Every day I smoked a pack of cigarettes.
I was able to stop smoking only after shortness of breath. I realized that my body is asking me for help. At that time it was a very deep shock for me. I quit smoking and did not return to it anymore.
