Have you ever noticed the smell a smoker has around them? You can even smell them a car length from them. That clogs the pores. As far as the smoking part. Check out the windows of a person who smokes, it has a thick coating of sludge which is tar. That is in the lungs of the smoker and the person who he smokes on. Second hand smoke is just as bad. It clogs up your pores, lungs, throat everything it touches. You can contact the Cancer Research Center noted on a pack of cigs. to get more info.

The carbon from the smoke opens the pores in your lungs enough for the chemicals; tar and niccotine (cancer-causing agents) in the tobacco to harm them. Naturally, we breath in oxygen and breath out carbon dioxide, so you can see why that would be dangerous.

The tar and nicotine are known cancer causing agents, its called carcinogens. If you wipe tar on the backs of rats, their will be a huge increase in tumors that form. Statistics show that smokers have a MUCH higher incidence of cancer, and that is proof that cigarettes cause cancer.

basically a constant irritation can cause fast multiplying cells ( cancer) to grow- and the ingredients in cigarettes cause that constant irritation, with known carginogens.

l DON'T BELIEVE YOU... there is NO WAY you could be "RESEARCHING" this...
Try googling and quit lying about how you are "researching" this subject because nobody is going to believe you.
