Studies Add Skin Health To List Of Reasons To Quit Smoking

(HealthNewsDigest.com) July, 2007 - While most Americans are keenly aware of the potentially deadly health consequences of cigarette smoking on the heart and lungs, many smokers don't realize the effects that smoking can have on the health of their skin.

We've very likely reached the point where most people with either an adequate education or any exposure to media are aware of the dangers of cigarette smoking.

My eight year old can tell you about that you need the cilia within your lungs to be functioning well if you expect to hold your own at the gym, and that if you've been a smoker for any length of time, that probably ain't happening.

He could also tell you that more people die from smoke inhalation than burns in structure fires, but I'm straying from my intended topic again.

I found a current article in HealthNewsDigest listing
five dangers smoking poses to skin health. If you love lists (doesn't everybody) or your skin, check it out.

I will leave you to draw your own conclusions for now.
