We all know that smoking is extremely harmful to the human body. A large-scale study recently published in the internationally renowned medical journal "Scalpel Journal" pointed out that female smokers have a 25% higher risk of heart disease than male smokers, and their chances of developing lung cancer are twice that of men! This study drew its conclusions by collecting data from 86 papers published internationally since 1966, and observing more than 2.4 million people. Researchers from various countries have found that the physiological changes in blood vessels and weight caused by smoking in women are far greater than those in men, which explains why the harm caused by smoking in women is more serious than that in men. In fact, as early as 20 years ago, an international study found that women who take oral contraceptives and smoke have a much higher risk of heart disease than non-smoking women; in addition, women who smoke have twice the risk of breast cancer as normal women. However, there are currently no smoking hazard warning icons designed specifically for women on cigarette packages, which leads to the public often ignoring the fact that the harm caused by smoking to women is actually far greater than that to men. |
