While most people know about the risks of lung cancer and lung cancer related illnesses that occur due to smoking many people are not aware of the other effects smoking can have on your health. Cigarette companies have done well over the years to hide just exactly how much smoking can negatively impact your health. That’s one reason why the electronic cigarette such as green smoke are becoming more popular. Here is a look at the different ways smoking can affect your health.

Besides damaging your lungs and putting you at serious risk because of all the nutrients and vitamins it destroys every time you light up. By ridding your body of these essential vitamins and nutrients your body so desperately needs you not only become at risk for getting lung cancer but it also lowers your immune system making you more susceptible to common colds and the flu. Smokers are also known to have higher blood pressure as well as higher cholesterol levels than those who do not smoke.

Besides all the negative effects smoking has on your inside it is also affects your outward appearance as well.
