Tobacco use is the single most preventable cause of disease, disability, and death in the United States. Each year, more Americans die from smoking-related illnesses than from AIDS, drug abuse, car accidents, and homicides combined. Tobacco use is known to cause lung and oral cancers and is strongly linked to many other types of cancer, including cancers of the breast, pancreas, colon, and cervix. Secondhand smoke is toxic and negatively affects the lives of everyone in its path. No amount is safe to breathe, whether you are inside or out. Tobacco use is a contributing and complicating factor for diabetes, heart disease, high blood pressure, and many other chronic and debilitating diseases. The single most important thing you can do for your health is to quit smoking or using nicotine replacement products (ex. gum and patches) or FDA-approved, non-nicotine cessation medications.
