We are all aware of the ill effects of second hand smoking to the health of the non-smokers who are around a smoker
. But here’s what is worse. Even if a smoker has left the vicinity, he can still affect the lives of the people around him. How? Well, here is now the new discovery known to be called as 3rd hand smoking. What is this all about?
Third hand smoking actually refers to the residue of smoke, nicotine and all other components from a smoker’s recent smoking activity. These residue are those that stick to fabric or those that are left in an enclosed space where the smoker has recently done his activity. When a non smoker enters said vicinity and inhales the residue, it will also cause him or her the very ill effects of smoking..
Let us all remember that, as we celebrate WORLD NO TOBACCO DAY…
CIGARETTE SMOKING IS NOT GOOD FOR HEALTH, YOURS AND THOSE AROUND YOU….
