If You Don't Have Your Health, Nothing Else Matters

Every smoker knows they face an increased risk for serious health problems from cigarettes and cigars. We know smoking causes heart disease, lung cancer and emphysema. None of this is earth-shattering news.

As smokers, though, we learn to effectively ignore the particulars about smoking-related disease. We gloss over, tune out and otherwise distract ourselves whenever possible. Looking too closely can cause a head-on collision with realities of the damage we're inflicting on our bodies and turns smoking 'enjoyment' into a guilty, fearful experience.

Smoker's Denial

All smokers harbor the secret hope that they will be spared the disease and death that follows nicotine addiction. We tell ourselves we'll quit in time and somehow dodge the bullet that smoking is.

But with four million people dying every year due to tobacco use around the world, the odds aren't in our favor. Put another way, a smoking-related death occurs somewhere in the world every eight seconds, 365 days a year.

The sooner we remove the blinders and look carefully at nicotine addiction and the damage it causes, the sooner we can begin pulling away from the lies.

5 Reasons to Quit Smoking

1) Heart Disease

Coronary heart disease is the leading cause of death in the U.S., and the leading cause of death caused by smoking. The toxins in cigarette smoke cause plaques to form in the arteries, which leads to atherosclerosis, otherwise known as hardening of the arteries. Smoking is hard on the heart.

 2) Stroke

According to the U.S. Dept of Health and Human Services, stroke is the third leading cause of death in the United States, killing upwards of 150,000 people each year. For smokers, the risk of stroke is nearly 2-1/2 times that of nonsmokers

3) Lung Cancer

According to the American Cancer Society, an estimated 213,380 new cases of lung cancer will be diagnosed - and 160,390 deaths will occur - in 2007 from lung cancer in the United States alone.

Lung cancer is the leading cause of cancer death for both men and women, and with 87 percent of all lung cancer cases involving tobacco, it is one form of cancer that is preventable.

4) Emphysema/COPD

Tobacco use is the number one cause of COPD, and quitting smoking is the best way to halt further damage. It's estimated that as many as 10 million Americans suffer from COPD, with upwards of 14 million others who may have it but are undiagnosed. In the United States, it was the fourth leading cause of death in 2000 and projections place it as the third leading cause by the year 2020.

5) Oral Cancer

Oral cancer (mouth cancer) is included in a specific group of cancers called oral and head and neck cancer. It's estimated that 70 to 80 percent of all cases of OHNC are due to tobacco use and heavy alcohol consumption.

that is real and it is what I see around my street player hater a bigger in number compared to those nice people and fans, on no account those playa haters tend to hinder even thing good and which might take LKM further mo steps ahead, that’s why on this web the small title says” when playa haters see it they prove their fakeness”. So let me laugh HA-HA-HAHAHAAAAA-, coz even to see this web to me is an ultimate victory, any way!! That is not an issues to disturb my precious gifted head, do you know how i go about these situations, the game though and the style used here is tit for tat, an eye for an eye, and a tooth for a tooth

despite all those above, sad feeling of mine to those stupid people u want to mess with my stuffs, life in mambo Kati street is cool and characterized by hip hop life stylez, hip hop music is our music here at mambo Kati street, love and respect to hommies to whom we share both sad and good times, and exchanging those creative ideas toward winning them street dreams

but bear in your mind that I have been here ever since 2002,and I keep on insisting that haters and jealous people are my great enemies, geographical locations and  distance are no longer obstacles to communicating and spreading the great news about the coming disturbances done by a little boy Laze on design industry to those cool fans, coz internet service has fixed that problem, and lkm now get a big number of fans to the extent of failing even to meet their need coz the company is still young. And money is still a problem
