Cigarettes

hello citizens steemit on this occasion I want to post one cigarette, Cigarette is a cylinder of paper length between 70 to 120 mm (varies by country) with a diameter of about 10 mm containing tobacco leaves that have been chopped. Cigarettes are burned at one end and allowed to burn so that the smoke can be inhaled through the mouth at the other end.

Cigarettes are usually sold in parcels or paper packaging that can be easily inserted into the bag. Since the last few years, the packages are also generally accompanied by health messages that warn smokers of the health hazards that can be generated from smoking, such as lung cancer or heart attack (although in reality the message is often overlooked).

Humans in the world who smoke for the first time are Indian tribes in America, for ritual purposes such as worshiping gods or spirits. In the 16th century, when Europeans discovered the American continent, some of the European explorers tried to smoke cigarettes and brought tobacco to Europe. Then the smoking habit began to emerge among the European nobility. But unlike the Indians who smoke for ritual purposes, in Europe people smoke only for the sheer pleasure. The 17th century Spanish merchants entered Turkey and by then the smoking habit began to enter the Islamic countries.

According to research 51.1% of Indonesian people are active smokers, the highest in ASEAN and very much different from neighboring countries, for example: Brunei Darusallam 0.06% and Cambodia 1.15%. In 2013, 43.8% of smokers came from the weak category; 37.7% of smokers only have an elementary certificate; farmers, fishermen and laborers accounted for 44.5% of active smokers. 33.4% of active smokers are aged between 30 to 34 years. The good is that only 1.1% of Indonesian women are active smokers, although surely passive smokers will be more numerous. [1]

There has been a great deal of research that proves that cigarettes are highly dependent, in addition to causing many types of cancer, heart disease, respiratory diseases, gastrointestinal diseases, adverse effects on birth, and emphysema. [2] [3]
