If all this time we know suffered diabetes for many carbohydrate intake, dietary errors and lifestyle, but now diabetes also experienced by passive smokers.
Previously a study conducted on 4572 people in the United States for 15 years claims that smokers are at high risk for increased levels of glucose, which triggers diabetes (diabetes), passive smokers are now also experiencing the same thing.
The study, published in the British Medical Journal mentioned the poison in cigarettes a bad influence on the pancreas, as sugar regulator insulin.
Research led by Professor Thomas Houston of the Birmingham Veterans Affairs Medical Center, Alabama to share the research is divided into several groups: smokers, former smokers, passive smokers and those who have never exposed to cigarette smoke.
Then the researchers noted the development of glucose levels, they found increased risk of diabetes in some groups, in which 22% had the highest risk in a period of 15 years.
While recurrent smokers, those who only smoked at least five cigarettes a week within a period of three months is below. A surprising study also noted the development of diabetes risk in passive smokers by 17% compared to 12% of those who have never exposed to cigarette smoke at all.
Passive smokers are also allowed to suck the poison experienced the same active smokers, and even some of these toxic substances tend to be more solid in passive smokers.
"We identified passive tobacco in passive smokers as a new factor for disorders of glucose levels." If confirmed in further studies, these conclusions provide further documentation of the effects of cigarette smoke, while policy makers may be able to use this study as an additional justification to reduce contact among smokers passive. "
Zoe Harrison, adviser at Diabetes UK, said that smoking anything, and somehow kept his condition is not good for health.
"If we need another reason to ban smoking in public, the risk of blindness, heart disease and amputations are often experienced as a continuation of Type 2 diabetes can be suppressed," Harrison said.
"Diabetes has become a disease which is often found, mostly due to lifestyle and consumption of inappropriate foods. If they do not begin to realize it's not unlikely that they would be susceptible to interference watching and amputation at a young age because of their diabetes naturally.
The study was rebutted by Neil Rafferty, spokesman for Forest, the pro-smoking group, which states that diabetes can be caused by many things. Until now there has been no real evidence about the effects of cigarette smoke with an increase in blood glucose levels. But to anticipate the worst with this smoke, Rafferty advised to begin to provide special areas for those who do not want exposed to cigarette smoke.

Smoking Make Skin Wrinkles
Anyone would want a beautiful and fresh skin, love the wrong lifestyle makes us dream far away from the skin. Exposure to sunlight at the time and intensity too much also contributed to damage the skin, coupled with free radicals from car fumes and cigarette smoke.
According to Drs. Nicholas Perricone, dermatologist and author of "The Perricone Prescription ', said the effects of smoking is very bad for skin health, and even smoking can make you look older than we really are. This occurs because the cigarette damage skin cells and make skin healthy and so do not dull.
When we inhale cigarette smoke more than one million free radicals will enter into the lungs, and absorption of these oxidants will slowly flow throughout the body.
Perricone mentions cigarettes make up more premature wrinkles on the face, especially in the cheeks and lines around the lips, because smoking reduces the flow of oxygen and needed nutrients to skin cells. This occurs because the flow around the blood vessels narrow face.
Perricone found in the book the term 'Smoker's face', a term officially adopted medical dictionary in 1985, for medical reasons to make it easier to recognize the harm of cigarettes, especially on facial skin health.
Besides wrinkles 'Smoker's face' was also found elatin thickening fibers and broken up into soft tissue of skin, which makes the skin elasticity relaxed. Cigarette smoke also lowered the water level in the outer skin layer, resulting in a decrease of estrogen that causes dry skin and wrinkles.
Lips too bad target smoking, though not as fast as its effect on skin health. Cigarettes will make black lips. The influence of heat when inhaled smoke will change color and make lips look black.
How about teeth? We could not pass up smoking without you? Besides making no fresh breath, the tar content in cigarettes will stick to the teeth and change the natural color.
For business yellow teeth, we could just go to the dentist to curry yellow layer, but if we often do certain emails layer thinning.
Effect on Passive Smokers
Further research is also done Clinique Laboratories. According to a beauty clinic based in London England, passive smokers also have the same possibilities.
In a report launched femalefirst.co.uk, passive smokers tend to have a rough skin, dry, wrinkled, and change the natural color of the skin. The danger is more cigarettes a woman become less attractive.
In an article issued in January, Clinique Laboratories compared the effects of smoking on the skin with a change in the oxidation of iron to rust or pieces of banana that changes color to be brown when left too long in the atmosphere, as well as our skin.
Toxic substance contained in cigarettes will penetrate the skin surface, into the inner lining, and release free radicals attack the skin cells.
Consequently, damaged skin cells would lose the power to repair DNA and collagen fibers connect, which makes the skin lose elasticity and natural collagen. The result of skin so wrinkles, fine lines, changing colors and dull.
"Smoker's skin is often exposed to passive smoke will suck the nicotine, tar, nitric oxide and carbon monoxide which weakens the skin's natural defenses and damage the collagen network, if done in a long and continuous time," said Tom Mammone, executive director of Clinique Biological Research and Development .

Stop Smoking Make Fat?
Quitting smoking is not easy, especially for smokers annually. Coupled with evidence that shows the number of ex-smokers tend to be fatter than when they were still actively smoking. This makes a lot of smokers are reluctant to leave their habits, although they were aware of smoking harmful to health.
When the automatic stop smoking weight will tend to rise, even the increase could be about 10 pounds more, although in general the increase ranged from only 2.5 to 7.5 kg. This fact makes a person feel reluctant to quit smoking.
Obesity should not be a reason for someone to quit smoking, would be better for weight control and a balanced diet for a period of time balance quit smoking, as published in the journal Health Services Research, this weekend.
The study was conducted by a joint team from the University of Michigan and the University of California, Berkeley, who re-analyzed data from the 1998 Lung Health Study of smokers in America 5887. And the study showed those who quit smoking experienced an average weight gain up to six pounds.
While the latest analysis concludes the average weight gain among smokers around 21 pounds. In a recent study reported by HealthDay, scientists did not include heavy smokers in this study.
Obesity occurs when quitting smoking if they are snacking as an alternative to cigarettes, and eventually gain weight. If this practice continued for conformity to stop smoking, the body will be more elastic and without them realizing the risk of heart disease also threaten them. All you need to know that heart disease from smoking is equivalent to 100 pounds overweight.
In this case the researchers emphasize that obesity is not experienced in smoker former health effects they experienced when starting to quit smoking.

Watch out, Smoking Can Damage Sperm!
A study by Canadian researchers say smoking can damage sperm and bequeath genetic damage from a father to his son. Studies conducted on rats showed that smoking causes changes in DNA in sperm cells, in which such mutations known to be permanent.
"If inherited, these mutations indicates that the changes can not be restored from its genetic composition," explained Carole Yauk Handling Division Environmental Toxins and Health Canada, who led the study.
"We have already known that pregnant women who smoke can harm the fetus she is carrying, and here we point to the fact that a father could even potentially damaging potential successor even before she met her partner," added Yauk research writing in the journal Cancer Research.
Yauk and colleagues studied the sperm-producing cells rats continuously exposed to cigarette smoke for six or 12 weeks, and all mammals continue to produce sperm.
The result, they found that the mutation occurred 1.7 times as much DNA in mouse cells exposed to smoke compared to mice not exposed to smoke after 12 weeks, and 1.4 times mutations after six weeks.
"This conclusion shows that the damage depends on duration of exposure to cigarette smoke, so the longer you smoke the accumulation of mutations will be bigger and bigger the potential impact on your sperm cells," explained Yauk.
In a different study also noted nearly most of the men who undergo IVF program were smokers. Moreover, the study also noted that the husband smokers have a lower ability to impregnate their wives rather than husbands who do not smoke.
Well, how about you? Shall make cigarettes a part of your lifestyle, or have started thinking about quitting smoking? If your health care, let's quit smoking!

A Cigarette for Beginners, trigger Effective Dependence
Enough just trying to suck just a single cigarette, it proved to be a dangerous thing for those who are not smokers, far different from what people have thought this over. Scientists have found that the first cigarette smoked by a person gives 'impetus of the effect of dependence,' and adding someone of vulnerability during the period of three years or more to become a smoker.
"So far we know that the development process from the experiences of a single cigarette sucking first, so being a smoker can pass through time for several years," said Jennifer Fidler of University College London. "But for the first time, we found evidence that there is a period where there" Dependence founder effect "or the" vulnerability to nicotine dependence, "which may take several years counted from the first person smoking cigarettes, until in the end made himself a heavy smoker . "
Fidler and his co-researchers, analyzing the impact of smoking the first of more than two thousand children in the age range of 11 to 16 years for five consecutive years. Of 260 children who have the experience of their first smoking cigarettes at age 11 years, 18% of whom had become heavy smokers at the time they reach the age of 14. But only 7% of children aged 11 years the group has never had experience of smoking at all, which became a heavy smoker interval three years later.
"The results showed that the first experience to be the main deciding factor, that someone will be a heavy smoker in the future," Fidler said the findings reported in the journal that published Tobacco Control this weekend.
The scientists still do not have certainty on the question of why the first single cigarette has such impact, but they said that nicotine can alter elements order situation in the brain, which can make children more vulnerable to stress or depression. And also can make them have a greater tendency to repeat the experience of smoking.
The first cigarette was also eliminates any fear or anxiety caught, or caught doing smoking by the parents or their teachers, who can actually prevent them to have a bad habit in the future.
Jean King of Cancer Institute researchers in the UK, said the discovery Fidler and his colleagues have very important implications, and certainly very useful in the effort to "anti-smoking campaign".
"Any research that helps reveal the process that occurs among teenagers, who later became smokers group, is the main key to develop and make effective targets in an effort to prevent young people have a desire to begin experimenting with smoking for the first time."

Smoking Can Reduce Intelligence
Smokers, especially those who are still in mid-adulthood, tend to have weaknesses in terms of memory and reason to think (intelligence) than those who did not smoke. This is another reason why we do not have to smoke.
French researchers say, the data gathered from 5000 UK citizens, found that those who smoked lower levels of memory, reasoning, vocabulary, and verbal skills, than those who do not smoke.
The study also found that smoking is associated with mental decline at a young age, as well as affect his physical frailty in the future.
The study concluded that smoking is done at a young age is associated with lower levels of memory and reasoning abilities.
Compared with smokers, those who claim non-smokers usually have healthier living habits, like not consuming alcohol or reduce the consumption of alcohol, the more physically active, eat lots of fruits and vegetables, and others.
The study was conducted on the youth ages 35 to adults 55 years of age for 17 years.
