QUIT SMOKING CIGARETTES..

  

   HEALTH RISKS OF SECONDHAND SMOKE

   Those who are regularly around the smoke of others (secondhand smoke) have a higher risk of:

·                     Heart attacks and heart disease.

·                                 Lung cancer.

·                              Sudden and severe reactions, including those involving the eye, nose, throat, and lower respiratory tract.

          Infants and children who are regularly exposed to secondhand smoke are at risk of:

·                             Asthma (children with asthma who live with a smoker are much more likely to visit the emergency room)
