If you smoke is it a 100% proven fact that you will get lung cancer!? |
Or do you have to smoke for like a number of years to develop lung cancer!! .. or what if you smoke and then stop .. will you still get lung cancer!?? See smoking and other tobacco uses increase the chances of getting cancer there is no rule that all those who smoke will get cancer the exceptions are always there. In fact there are many people who are great smokers and are living or had lived more than 90 years hale and healthy. What the doctors & scientists say is they have found out that smoking increases the chance of getting cancer and nothing more or nothing less than it. The latest report says eating good cancer fighting / curing foods like cabagge would prevent the cancer for most of the people who eat them hence search in the net for "cancer curing food" and consume it. All the best. no.... dee dee dee Yes, if you smoke and stop, you can still get cancer because you have done damage that may turn to cancer. Not everyone gets cancer, they get; throat cancer, tongue cancer, their faces age faster, smoke damages their eyes, the expose innocent non-smokers to their filthy habit that causes second hand smoke cancer, etc., etc. You set yourself up for asthma, COPD and emphazema when you smoke, all of which limit your ability to breathe and make life very difficult. Bottom line, smoke destroys a body. If you smoke quit and never do it again. My grandfather died from smoking, he had lung cancer. He had one lung removed and they found the cancer in his other lung and sent him home to die and early, painful death. Funny question. My Grandma ( in law ) just got diagnosed with lung cancer, and smoked since she was young. She never quit--so that obviously upped her chances. I was thinking the same question. My lover lived in a family with 3 smokers (out of 5 people) for 18 years. I wonder how much that upped his chances, just from the secondhand. He smoked for one year. Good thing he's completely against it now Unfortunately, it took a near-death to get that way. NO You can discuss this in school with your Biology teacher or school nurse Sorry kid Grandma Cancer is a collection of mutations in your DNA. While it's not 100% proven, the chance is HUGE (whereas if everyone quit smoking, deaths from lung cancer would drop 85%!) The smoke from cigarettes has tons of mutagens (as well as tons of other nasty crap) which will cause the mutations in your DNA. The less time you've spent smoking the better, but even being around second hand smoke has been proven to lead to cancer. So no, it doesn't depend on how long ago you stopped, and if you smoke and then stop you're doing a great thing to reduce your risk, but you may still get lung cancer. Everyone's body responds differently. If you need help stopping or need more information, you can ask your doctor. |
