Smoking Facts - Part 9

Hi,

My name is Mark Tiger, creator of this blog, and of the "Smokers to Non-Smokers" program.  Find out more about the program:

I was totally addicted to tobacco products, mainly cigarettes; and spent 20 years desperately trying to stop smoking without succeeding.

Finally in 1999, I used a method that I had created for myself; and I managed to become a non-smoker.  I have never smoked again since.

In 2005, I decided to share the methods that I had used to successfully become a Non-Smoker, with Smokers who wanted to become Non-Smokers.

After helping over three hundred Smokers to become Non-Smokers, my success rate was a little over 99%.  From this experience I have improved the program, to assist those who are already non-smokers; to remain non-smokers for the rest of their lives.

Smoking Facts – Part 9

Smoking Takes Toll in Womb
Women who smoke during pregnancy, can cause permanent damage to their child's circulatory system, which can increase risks for heart disease and stroke later in life, Dutch researchers report.

Permanent Cardio Damage 
His team's analysis of data from the Netherlands Atherosclerosis Risk in Young Adults study found that people exposed to smoke when their mothers were pregnant had permanent cardiovascular damage that could be detected in young adulthood.  The findings were expected to be presented Friday at the American Heart Association's Annual Conference on Cardiovascular Disease Epidemiology and Prevention in Orlando, Florida. 

In addition, smoking during pregnancy can result in compromised intrauterine growth and low birth weight, Bots noted.  In the study, Bots and colleagues collected data on 732 people born between 1970 and 1973.
