How many times more dangerous are Cigars compared to Cigarettes? My friend has gave up smoking cigarettes in favour of smoking cigars.
I am worried he is doing serious damage to his health. Can anybody help me with some facts to point out. Cheers in advance. Best Answer - Chosen by Voters There was an unfortunate study way back in the 60s which suggested that cigar and pipe smoking were significantly less dangerous than cigarette smoking. As a result many cigarette smokers converted to one of these alternatives. The bad news eventually emerged that though pipe or cigar smokers who had NEVER smoked cigarettes were at less risk, ( but not of course no risk,) as their smoking/inhalation techniques were different, Cigarette smokers who chance to cigars or pipes do not however reduce their risks from smoking.

How detrimental to you health, is smoking ~5 cigarettes a month? Apart from the obvious risk of addiction and potential to increase the amount you smoke, what are the risks/potential health effects, compared to smoking, say, 5 a day?
Thanks
Matt Best Answer - Chosen by Asker Smoking any cigarette does damage to your lung and organs, however... Here are some facts for ya.
Within 20 minutes of your last cigarette, your blood pressure and pulse return to normal. Within eight hours, the carbon monoxide and oxygen levels in your blood return to normal. After 48 hours, your senses of smell and taste return to that of a non-smoker. Your lung capacity improves within 72 hours as you bronchial tubes begin to relax.
And if you are quitting the addiction: your circulation and lung function improve within two weeks to three months after you quit. As the cilia in your bronchial tubes regrow you will be able to clear your lungs easier and reduce the number of infections in your lungs. This process begins within one to nine months. At five years, your lung cancer death rate decreases from 137 per 100,000 people to 72 per 100,000 and drops to 12 per 100,000 after 10 years. This rate is similar to that of nonsmokers.
So, with just 5 cigarettes a month, you can still develop lung cancer, but, for the most part you will have the overall health of a non-smoker.

People who have experience with amsterdam? I have been thinking about taking a trip to amsterdam, the trip would probably last a week.
Advice/tips anyone?
Money wise.
girls in the red light district.
Pot smoking areas.(i know your not supposed to smoke in the streets but is it THAT big of a deal?)
Best Coffee Shops.
Things to do etc.
I would like to get the complete once in a life time experience so any advice or ideas would be greatly appreciated. Best Answer - Chosen by Asker Advice and tips?
Sure.
Money: ATM card if you can, but otherwise consider around US$ 150 / EUR 125 a day.
This includes basic lodging (basic = cheap) and standard food/drink, a tourist attraction, some public transport and a small amount 'just in case' (contingency fund) It does not include travel from somewhere TO amsterdam though.
Do not carry that much on your person, as in every city, you should expect the odd pickpocket.
Girls: yes, they are there, it`s open, legal, if you are inclined to that kind of thing. Tip: do not (try to) take pictures. They do not like that at all (as i found out - and wasn`t even taking pics of them)
Pot smoking: in public, it is considered annoying, and is very much frowned upon (contrary to what users think, non-users think it stinks). Smoke in the coffeeshops, or in a quiet (= non crowded) spot in a park. Make sure you are over 18, and can prove it with real ID.
Best coffee shops: Don`t know - but from people who do, i`m told the 'Rokerij' is a good and reliable one. Best option is to walk around, and look inside. You should get a decent impression.
As to smoking - it`s a bigger problem smoking cigarettes in general that what might be in the cigarettes! Public smoking ban is in effect - and only on designated areas you`re free to smoke. Take care to know you`re allowed to do so before you light up.
Things to do: Heineken expirience, Museums (there are lots) a canal boat trip, visit Leidseplein or Rembrantsplein in the evening (main entertainment area`s), use a tram (public transport), walk through the center, see the shops, Dam square, and generally just enjoy yourself.
And, take your time. Don`t rush.

Can you guys help me PLEASE for my kids? So my kids keep asking me to quit smoking so I want to try and quit smoking, I smoked a butt at 11am Sunday morning and I really want to go buy a pack right know. Does anyone have any tricks or how did you stop smoking. PLEASE help Best Answer - Chosen by Asker Have you heard of the new electronic cigarettes? There was a story about them on Yahoo about a week ago. I've been smoking for 30 years and have tried everything to quit smoking without any success. And I bought two packs of cigarettes today that cost me more than $12. That’s just crazy! So I will be ordering my electronic cigarette starter package this week and I'm very excited about it. They simulate a real cigarette which none of the other quit smoking aids have done. They come with a rechargeable battery, when you inhale, you get a burst of nicotine for that craving and it actually looks like you're blowing out smoke but it's a water vapor mist. The tip of the cigarette even illuminates. So you get the nicotine you crave, the hand and mouth fixation is covered and exhaling the vapor mist looks like smoke.
The beauty of it is you still get all the stuff you crave from smoking without all the negative side effects or harmful additives found in tobacco. The starter kit comes with the electronic cigarette, battery, and five nicotine cartridges. Each cartridge is supposed to be equal to 1-2 packs of cigarettes. The kit is $79 and the cartridge refills are around $13 for a pack of five. I will be ordering from the site below.
Good Luck!
