The Frightening rate at which the smokers die from smoking

The Frightening rate at which the smokers die from smoking

According to the recent research from the Australia, two third of the smokers will die early because of the illness triggered by the cigarette, unless they opt to quit the habit.

The study, published this week in the BMC medicine, of more than 200000 people showed that around 67 percent of the smokers are perished from the smoking related illness. This rate is much higher than the doctors estimated earlier.

 The tobacco smoke can boost up the risks for minimum 13 types of cancer. The earlier you quit is the best. The study stated that the relative risks of adverse health effects inflate with enhanced intensity of smoking, measured by the quantity of tobacco smoked on daily basis and with increasing the duration of the smoking.

The research showed that the risk of death is doubled by smoking 10 cigarettes daily and smoking a pack every day quadruples it.

A researcher, co-author Emily Banks, at the Australian National University, said that they knew smoking was bad but now they have independent and direct evidence which confirms the alarming findings that have internationally been emerging.

According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, a computed 42.1 million Americans smoke the cigarettes. The top reason of preventable diseases and the death in United States is the cigarette smoking, accounting for more than 480000 deaths each year, the agency reported, or one in the fives.

However, putting aside the emotional turmoil, smoking is bad for the wallets too. A study of Ohio State University found that the employees who smoke tobacco cost the employers around $6000 extra annually in productivity and the health care than the non smokers.

From the New England Journal of Medicine, another study shows that the health care costs, on average, for the smokers tend to be 40 percent higher. This same research suggests darkly that we all would save the money in short term if the cigarette from the earth vanished but night be paying more down the line as all would live longer.

How to get the Americans to quit the habit, the policy makers have long wondered. According to the research from the University of Michigan, in some areas youth smoking has been reduced by adding excise taxes to the cigarette packs. Around 30 percent of the adults smoke who are living below the poverty level, compared with 16 percent who are living at or above the poverty level.

The WHO (World Health Organization) recommends invoking the smoke free public places and developing supportive environments for the people to part with their packs. Meanwhile, the CDC distributes the advice like How to live with a hole in your neck?
