does smoking only 4 or 5 cigarettes a day really that harmful??

Question

Im finding it hard to quit becasue i enjoy it so much. please advise

Answer 1

All smoking is harmful though it's better to smoke 5 than 45.

Answer 2

Smoking one cigarettes a day can kill you ,cigarettes causes lung damage and it causes mouth cancer and God only knows what else and if you smoke four or five a day now it wont be long before you will start craving more and pretty soon you will be smoking two or three packs a day so why not quit now before the habit gets a really strong hold on you and you wont be able to quit ,like my husband that has had surgery twice and had to have half his mouth cut away because of cancer and he still smokes because he can't quit and he has tried every thing,so please stop while you still have a chance. And everyone that smokes enjoy them or they would not smoke ,but smoking can KILL.
Good Luck

Answer 3

Yes, it's only 1 cigarette that starts off the cancer, it could be No. 7 or number 100007, it's just a lottery.
I smoke 40 a day, and if I was lucky enough to ever be able to cut down to 5 a day I would stop.
I'm afraid if you need to smoke 5 a day you're just as addicted as me, while I'm having a cigarette you are thinking about them! It's the nature of the beast called nicotine!

Answer 4

well its better than smoking 20 or 40!

weve been smoking for 400 years, (or so) smoking related diseases only began to occur in the 1940's, and have risen continually. WHY?

answer; production methods, and tobbacco consumption.

as you know, ready rolled cigs are loaded with saltpetre and formaldehyde, plus peservatives and anti oxidants, (to extend the shelf life) NO ONE has ever done any long tern tests onthe ingestion of these chemicals by the human body... and different people have different reactions to these compounds.

whereas, hand rolled tobbaco, such as Golden Virginia has only tobbacco in it. just looking at it shows what a difference there is, let alone havingit analysed.

tobbacco is a perfectly natural substance, and taken in moderation, without the added chemicals, well, i think it reduces the risks... and coz they go out when you put them down, and you dont smoke as many in a day, it can only be better for you.

i smoke around 3 grammes of GV a day. (50G lasts me a rwo weeks) thats around 5 smokes... one ready rolled weighs a gram...

draw your own conclusions. but the available common sense evidence supports this... but no one is listening...

Answer 5

Every cigarette takes 15 mins off your life. So 5 a day is 1 hour 15 mins of your life a day you're losing. Is that harmful in your book?

Answer 6

Yes it is still harmful and to stop smoking you have to stop not cut down cause that does not work just stop,still go out for the cigarette break but take a coffee or tea with you and after a while you wont want to go out for them cause you cant be bothered

Answer 7

Any smoking is harmful..it is not good for you at all......the trouble is you can't just have 4 or 5 a day, you know that..It will creep up and you will be back on twenty a day...the only way I am afraid is to quit...Its like asking an alcoholic to have just one pint...can't be done...sorry.

Answer 8

All smoking is harmful, but it's better to smoke 5 than 45!

Answer 9
