What is in a cigarette?

Main causes of death attribute are the ingredients in the cigarette. They contain over 4000 different chemicals including noxious gases and tiny droplets of tar, which causes cancer, and nicotine, a highly addictive drug.

This can be serious because oxygen is essential for our bodies to function properbly. On average 15% of a smokers blood system may be carrying CO instead of oxygen, this results in the heart having to work much harder, which can then lead to conorary heart diease and further circulation problems.
