1. The tobacco used in cigarettes contain over 7000 chemicals - at least 250 of these are known to be harmful to health and over 70 are known carcinogens
2. Many chemicals within tobacco are absorbed into the bloodstream. This means that the harmful effects of cigarettes are not just limited to the lung
