TOBACCO-YOUR POISON

 TOBBACCO-YOUR POISON Forbidden fruits tastes sweetest , and indeed they do but the one thing we fail to realize is that they are forbidden, out of bounds and they should not be taken at any costs.             Many are the times when we are told to refrain from forbidden fruits but we tend to think that it’s just a plot to prevent us from enjoying life and having fun. One of such fruits is smoking tobacco. I was reading a book entitled Vibrant Health and as I got to the topic that touched on smoking tobacco… This is what I found out: Tobacco contains over 4000 chemicals, and others are formed the moment tobacco is burned. Some of the chemicals include Acetone - is a solvent used as a nail polish remover Arsenic- is commonly used as a rat poison Ammonia- is added to cigarettes to enhance the addictive elements of nicotine Benzene- is used as a solvent in fuel ; also in dyes and rubber Carbon monoxide- highly poisonous gas that is lethal in large doses Cad
