Tobacco smoke is the aerosol that comes with the burning of tobacco. When tobacco is being burned, most of the tobacco content vaporises. Many of the chemicals contained in tobacco are toxic, some can even cause cancer if inhaled over a long period of time.

The aerosol tobacco smoke does not only contain benzol, prussic acid, formaldehyd and nitrosamine, but almost 12.000 different chemicals in all three states of aggregation. Irritant substances like ammoniac and nitrogen monoxide slow down the self cleaning system of the bronchia. The slowing down of the body’s self cleaning system eventually results in a chronic bronchitis, also known as the smoker’s cough. Ammoniac and nitrogen monoxide are just two of the 12.000 substances, that a smoker inhales every day. |
Tobacco smoke does also contain lots of blood toxic substances, like for example carbon monoxide, which is atoxic gas without any color or smell. The toxicity of carbono monoxide can be compared to hydrocyanic acid, just to give an idea how toxic it is. It comes from the incomplete tobacco oxidation and ligates to the hemoglobin. Containing Carbon monoxide, the red blood cells have no possibility to carry oxygen, as their capacity is being used by the carbon monoxide. The result of this effect is that a smoker does always have a shorter breath than a non-smoker.

Nicotine is a so called neuro-toxic chemical. It is the main reason for the addiction to tobacco smoke, as it is the strongest psycho-active substance contained in tobacco smoke.It is an oily fluid without any color. Nicotine makes part of the group of narcotic effective neurotoxines. 50 milligrams of it would be deadly for about 50% of all people. This is the amount of nicotine, an average smoker inhales every day. However regular smokers survive it because not all the nicotine inhaled goes into the blood. The ability of the body to absorb nicotine depends on the way it is being consumed. It depends on if it is being smoked, sniffed, or chewed. Much of the nicotine is being destroyed when it is being heated. This means, that only a small amount of the nicotine contained in a cigarette goes into the blood. |
Tobacco smoke contains an amount of cancer causing substances, that is almost impossible to overlook. It starts with toxic heavy metals, like cadmium, blood toxic chemicals like benzol, tar particles and highly carcinogenic benzopyrene. There’s also radioactive substances like polonium and radon contained in tobacco, depending on what type of tobacco it is.
More and more people today consider tobacco smoke a toxine. The US-State California has even decided to add it to the list of toxic air polluting contaminants.
Everyone who smokes 20 cigarettes a day fro 20 years, inhales a total amount of about 12 pounds of toxic tobacco dust and a cup of tar each and every year. This type of intoxications shortens the life expectation significantly. The inhalation of tobacco smoke is a high risk factor for all types of cancer, diseases in the respiratory system and diseases in the cardiovascular system.
