- Teknoman117 4y agoSmoking (also) causes cardiovascular disease - Atherosclerosis, increased blood pressure, increased cholesterol, etc. 1 in 3 deaths from cardiovascular disease are estimated to be caused by smoking. Smoking damages your body in all sorts of ways, one just rolls the dice on which one gets them first.

- MengerSponge 4y agoYou said main outcome, not me. Cardiovascular stuff is really common, but it's a less common association: "breathing smoke makes lungs get sick" is easy to believe. "breathing smoke makes brain leak" takes a little more knowledge. If you still have doubts, consider the prevalence of vaping. Sure vaping is healthier than smoking, but it's way way worse than not using nicotine in any form.
