How Tobacco Smoke Causes Disease


Book Description

This report considers the biological and behavioral mechanisms that may underlie the pathogenicity of tobacco smoke. Many Surgeon General's reports have considered research findings on mechanisms in assessing the biological plausibility of associations observed in epidemiologic studies. Mechanisms of disease are important because they may provide plausibility, which is one of the guideline criteria for assessing evidence on causation. This report specifically reviews the evidence on the potential mechanisms by which smoking causes diseases and considers whether a mechanism is likely to be operative in the production of human disease by tobacco smoke. This evidence is relevant to understanding how smoking causes disease, to identifying those who may be particularly susceptible, and to assessing the potential risks of tobacco products.

I'M TOO STRESSED TO STOP. I'LL GAIN WEIGHT IF I QUIT. I'VE TRIED AND FAILED TOO MANY TIMES TO COUNT. Why are you still smoking, even though you want to quit? Based on twenty years of research and hands-on work with countless smokers in his clinics at Columbia University and New York Presbyterian Hospital, Dr. Daniel F. Seidman understands that people smoke -- and quit -- for different reasons and what works for one smoker might not work for another. • Are you a Situational Smoker? Monitoring your reactions in different situations is a step toward permanently losing interest in cigarettes. • Are you a Worried-about-Weight Smoker? Properly using treatments like Nicotine Replacement Therapy (NRT) can help you quit and get healthy in all aspects of your life. • Are you an Emotion-Triggered Smoker?

In a comprehensive, 30-day program, Dr. Seidman explains how to retrain your brain, take advantage of all the tools at your disposal, and end the month smoke-free and feeling stronger than ever!




Reasons To Smoke


Book Description

Reasons to Smoke is the rallying manifesto for the 45 million Americans who are still puffing away and stubbornly refuse to quit-or just haven't gotten around to it yet. The antithesis to our bestselling book Quit, which has sold more than a million copies, this book provides simple, humorous-but still compelling!- rationalizations for those large, cohesive communities of smokers who can be found bonding in scores outside office buildings, restaurants, and bars in most major cities across the U.S. They are unfazed by the smoking bans sweeping the nation. They have solid reasons to smoke. This book will add to their repertoire, and reinforce that lighting up isn't just a mindless addiction. A hilarious book with, guaranteed, no socially redeeming value, Reasons to Smoke will be a commiserating impulse item appealing to all those outlaw smokers out there huddling in doorways, feeling ousted by the non-smoking members of society.
