Cigarette and tobacco are consumed since centuries, I have seen smokers in good health in their eighties perhaps better than their non-smoker counterparts. There are certain researches which say that tobacco is helpful in preventing Alzheimer like disease in old age. It may cause cancer but no one is certain to whom. In reality it is pharma lobby which is brain washing and governing health rules in any country. A bit of nicotine in blood relaxes brain and body and creates a feel-good factor which causes people to fall sick less frequently. Pharma also not want to ban tobacco, they just want to create a hype to make people feel like addicted and sell their own products to de-addict them, but the substitutes they sell are also a blend of nicotine itself. Government also knows this, as in the shade of the level “Hazardous to health” government is levying incrementally huge taxes since lost 50 years and earning money. In my belief cigarette smoking in modernity is not as harmful as being advertised, however anything in extreme may be dangerous. more
