Five million smokers annually smoke themselves to death. Every puff destroys additional tissues while introducing up to
81 cancer causing chemicals. Smoking claims
half of adult smokers and is projected to kill
one billion before century's end. Here in the U.S., males claimed by smoking lose an average of 13 years of life, while females lose 14. Frankly, there's no nice way of saying it. Smokers are committing slow suicide, and they know it.
