How Does Smoking Ruin Your Health and Quality of Life?
It is common knowledge that smoking cigarettes can have negative impacts on both individuals and their loved ones.
- Smoking exposes individuals to over 7000 harmful chemicals, including carcinogens like Nicotine, Lead, and Benzene.
- Negative effects extend beyond respiratory issues to impact the heart, kidneys, digestive system, skin, stroke, and circulation problems
- Smoking disrupts dosha balance, leading to mental disturbances and energy depletion.
- Potential for developing diabetes
- Weakening of the immune system
- Dental problems may worsen
- Risk of hearing and vision loss
- Oral cavity diseases like smoker’s palate, smoker’s melanosis, coated tongue, oral candidiasis, and periodontal diseases
- Increased risk of oral cavity malignancies (cancerous growth)
Engaging in behaviours like consuming alcohol, making poor dietary choices, using illicit substances, or smoking may indicate that our minds are overly active and in need of calming, as per Ayurvedic principles. These activities offer temporary relief from issues like work stress, relationship troubles, or feelings of anxiety and depression. While they may provide a brief sense of calm, they can also lead to more problems in the long run, especially with smoking. Ayurvedic methods can help you quit these habits – learn how.
The risks of smoking, as seen from an Ayurvedic viewpoint, impact various aspects of your health. It not only harms your lungs but also affects your heart, kidneys, digestive system, skin, bones, hair, reproductive system, and eye health. In some cases, the damage is permanent and can lead to an imbalance in the doshas.
