*Smoking reduces the amount of oxygen in the blood, causing shortness of breath and impaired muscle function.
*Smoking hurts the arteries, causing life-threatening spasms.
*Smoking affects the blood clotting, promoting, among other things, the formation of clots and therefore the potential trigger of an infarct, phlebitis or stroke.
*Smoking causes inflammation of the blood vessels, which also causes clots to form.
*Smoking lowers the level of good cholesterol, which is a long-term risk factor for the cardiovascular system.
