The Science Week XI of Madri + d, has organized activities for the prevention of the most addictive legal drug there is.
More than a million and half citizens in Madrid smoke, eleven million in Spain, in 1300 millions around the world. Try their first cigarette between twelve and thirteen years on average, despite being “the drug known to produce less pleasure.” Last Thursday was held at the headquarters of the AECC, a day before an audience of students of 3 and 4 ESO to explain the chemical composition of snuff , and their involvement in addiction and its harmful health.
Thus, for 14, 15 and 16 years of Mary Immaculate College attended a conference-debate where it was explained, among other things, that snuff smoke has 4,000 chemicals, 200 of which are poisonous and 43 can produce cancer. “Nicotine is the addictive substance is in the plant of snuff, there is an additive,” said the specialist in prevention Santiago Mendez.

And is that 90 percent of lung cancers of the oral cavity are associated with snuff. Like 83 percent of the larynx or 27 percent of the digestive system, esophagus, pancreas, etc.. “300 people die every hour in the smoking world,” he said Mendez. Furthermore, according to OncoBarómetro of the association, although the population predominates the belief that most tumors are “inherited” the fact is that, says the head of the Genetic Counselling Unit of Medical Oncology at the Hospital Clinico San Carlos in Madrid, ” between 90 and 95 percent of tumors are not inherited.

Says still feel anxiety, which does not mean to make you feel “good.” And is that specialists suggest that people who quit smoking before age 35 “prevent 90 percent of the health risks attributed to snuff. Also keep in mind the adverse effects of passive smoking (it is said that 14 percent of childhood leukemias are produced for this reason).
