Negative Effects of Smoking

Coughing: Smokers experience cough as this is the way the body tries and get rid of toxins that are inhaled while smoking. 

Yellow teeth and fingertips: Smoking causes the teeth to change the colour from white to yellow and you will notice that many smokers try to hide their teeth while smiling.  Even the finger tips start looking yellow.

Difficulty with blood circulation: The smoke that is inhaled contaminates the blood not allowing the blood to circulate freely thus clogging the arteries and you will begin to experience cold hands and feet. 

Dull skin: Due to the clogged arteries and lessened blood flow, the skin loses its glow and makes the skin look pale and dull.  

Lessened lung capacity: Smoking affects your overall wellness especially the lungs as it deteriorates the lung capacity. 

Lower Energy: Smoking reduces the body’s oxygen intake which reduces energy levels.  Lower oxygen in the blood also causes the brain to get less oxygen and this will make a smoker unable to concentrate and focus on things.

Bad breath: Smoking causes bad breadth due to the tobacco intake.

Besides the above, smoking causes serious illnesses and heart diseases and if you continue smoking then as you know smoking kills hence it is better to quit smoking soon.
