US
scientists have claimed that secondhand smokers are at higher
risk of breast cancer. Earlier,
their research also led to them to the conclusion that young
women smokers are more likely to get addicted to smoking
than young men.
Breast
Cancer is the number one cancer among women and the count
of its victims are rising very rapidly. (BTW, lung cancer
strikes women at about the same rate as breast cancer).
This is the first time that passive smoking has been directly
linked with some sort of cancer.
World Health Organization links smoking with twenty-five
cancers: Some of these cancers are: uterine, kidneys, cervix,
pancreas, head and neck. The study firmly proves that smoking
is not only injurious to your health but, also to the company
of others.
Smoking doesnt stop here with its side-effects. For
women, smoking also increases the risk of strokes and heart
diseases. And to add fuel to the fire, chances for heart-related
diseases gets tenfold if they are taking birth control pills.
