Second Hand Smoke---More Dangerous Than You Think!

Secondhand Smoke Increases Heart Risks
Accumulated data supports smoke-free environments, experts say

By Steven Reinberg
HealthDay Reporter

MONDAY, May 23 (HealthDay News) -- The average nonsmoker walking into
a smoke-filled room might not think short-term exposure to cigarette
smoke will affect them.

But a new study suggests that even small amounts of secondhand smoke
can cause life-threatening changes to a nonsmokers' circulatory
system.

And while the immediate effects of this exposure are reversed within
a few hours, exposure to secondhand smoke over longer periods of time
can have devastating consequences to the heart, including an
increased risk for heart attack, researchers warn.

"Secondhand smoke is even worse than we thought," said co-researcher
Stanton A. Glantz, a professor of medicine and longtime antismoking
advocate at the University of California, San Francisco. "It
increases the risk for an acute coronary event like a heart attack or
long-term development of atherosclerosis," he added.

Chronic exposure to secondhand smoke is about 80 percent as
deleterious to health as being a pack-a-day smoker, Glantz said. "The
cardiovascular system is exquisitely sensitive to the toxins of
secondhand cigarette smoke. Most of the toxic effects of secondhand
smoke occur within five minutes of exposure," he noted.

In their study, Glantz and his colleague Dr. Joaquin Barnoya, an
assistant adjunct professor of epidemiology at UCSF, reviewed the
existing medical literature on the effects of secondhand smoke on the
cardiovascular system. They looked at 29 studies published since 1995
that compared the effects of secondhand smoke with the effects of
active smoking.

Their report appears in the May 24 issue of Circulation.

Glantz and Barnoya found there is sufficient evidence that key
aspects of cardiovascular function, including clotting, the ability
of blood vessels to change size, arterial stiffness, atherosclerosis,
oxidative stress, inflammation, heart rate variability, energy
metabolism, and severity of heart attack are all sensitive to toxins
found in secondhand smoke.

"The effects of even brief (minutes to hours) passive smoking are
often nearly as large (averaging 80 percent to 90 percent) as chronic
active smoking," they wrote.

"It doesn't take much to cause big effects," Glantz said. "If you
already have compromised coronary circulation and go into a smoky
environment, there is a substantial increase in your risk of an acute
event."

Barnoya believes the findings belie what the tobacco industry would
have people believe. "The arguments from the tobacco industry have
been that it is not likely that you can find such large effects in
passive smokers, given the dose they get compared with the dose an
active smoker gets," he explained.

But nonsmokers are more sensitive to the effect of tobacco smoke than
are active smokers, Barnoya said. "In some cases, the effects are as
large or even larger than you see in an active smoker."

The dangers of secondhand smoke are so great that Barnoya believes
everyone should avoid it. "We should be fighting for smoke-free
environments," he stressed.

Other experts not involved in the study are unanimous in their
agreement of the dangers of secondhand smoke.

"Secondhand smoke disables and kills many people by virtue of its
cardiovascular effects and also by virtue of its effects on the
lung," said Dr. Norman H. Edelman, chief medical officer for the
American Lung Association.

Another expert sees secondhand smoke as an assault on the health of
nonsmokers. "How can any society allow tobacco smoke to be imposed on
innocent bystanders?" asked Dr. David L. Katz, an associate clinical
professor of public health and director of the Prevention Research
Center at Yale University School of Medicine.

"We have clear, convincing evidence that those who smoke are swinging
a big stick indeed at the noses of those of us who don't," Katz
said. "While they should have autonomy over their choices, they
should not have autonomy over ours. Smoking in public places does not
stop where my nose begins and therefore, it should be banned. Not
just by some states, but by all. This study will, I hope, help
cultivate the political will to see that job is done sooner rather
than later."

Requests for a response from cigarette maker Philip Morris Inc., were
not answered at press time.

First off there is the trade-off of the enjoyement of driving a muscle,

in the video poker example, inhaling smoke is not part of the enjoyment
of playing video poker, for me!

Secondly, a smart driver can control and reduce the risk exposure, by
wearing seatbelts, installing airbags, and adjusting driving behavior
to road conditions...and the all important don't drink and drive. To
accept unnecessary risk, with no additional benefit, is foolish!

Limiting CASINO VISITS makes more sense.

Double-talking the issue has no effect on reality or common sense.
You can compare your habit to whatever you like, but the clear fact
is you know you far overdo the casino thing, and that the only way
to cut back on the exposure to the negatives associated with it is
to cut way back or quit altogether. Most interests in this world by
normal people--such as mine with my old cars or even mine with my
gambling trips, is done in controlled moderation

Limiting CASINO VISITS makes more sense.

Only from a second hand smoke perspective. However, I try to take
into account many things before making personal choices as I'm sure
you do with your cars and living with the poor air quality of the
Phoenix area.

No double talk. Just the facts, as usual. I can see that the facts
leave you no good response.

No, I do it just right. It's a personal choice that weighs ALL the

Once again, Rob finds that certain risks are "acceptable" for his
endeavors but not "acceptable" for some one elses. This is called
hypocracy. Only the person making the risk-reward trade-off can
determine what is right for them. This is as obvious as it gets. The

Zzzoooommmm! Right thru the hole in your head again.....but likely on

Loss of originality (a common geek trait who's reeling from being

Sorry, Biffy-boy, but asserting lies just doesn't cut it here
anymore. You always do this when confronted with simple truths. It
makes you look small and petty. That is one reason your inner voice
speaks so often.

You HAVE no choice--other than which unhealthy casino to make your
problematic gambling visits to all the time.

Yawn. You just can't come up with anything to counter my facts. Once
again you are looking small and petty.

Zzzoooommmm! Right thru the hole in your head again.....but likely

on

purpose. Better to expose the hole than admit to the truth.

My explanation was clear and concise. Your response demonstrated once
again that you can't counter a reasonable argument with anything
remotely intelligent. Do you have any idea what this makes you look
like? Your inner self sure does.

Anything that has "abuse the nerds" in it catches my eye. It's 100%
fun and zero percent work.

And, just like Biff, it has gotten you nowhere. Listen to your inner

Always, that's why I deal in facts. Why is it you deal in lies?

Then why the need to minimilaze everything so you don't have to take

Sorry, Biffy-boy, but asserting lies just doesn't cut it here
anymore. You always do this when confronted with simple truths. It
makes you look small and petty. That is one reason your inner voice
speaks so often.

The only issue you swing and miss more at than this is about your
bambling problem. You easily get yourself rattled into wordy rambles
that anyone can see is done only because you have no direction other
than to go against truth and reality.

Isn't that exactly what your inner voice has been telling you?

What's this 'inner voice' you seem to use as your new crutch? Anyway,
you'll say anything that justifies your inordinate amount of visits
to casinos. That's because you have no way out. Your weeny and
pathetic gambling life - which is your WHOLE life - would be over if
that ever happened.

Yawn. You just can't come up with anything to counter my facts.

Once again you are looking small and petty.

You call falsely justifying a pathetic habit a fact? HAHA! You're so
full of it. You don't "weigh all the pluses & minuses....you simply
cannot wait to get in the car and zoom over to the casino whenever
the urge overtakes you and that gambling addict wife of yours. What a
truly pathetic way to be a 'family'--which in itself is an insult to
every decent family in this country.

My explanation was clear and concise. Your response demonstrated

once

again that you can't counter a reasonable argument with anything
remotely intelligent. Do you have any idea what this makes you look
like? Your inner self sure does.

I see I've finally sapped all your strength with a clean, clear dose
of reality. All your make-believe trade-off nonsense doesn't cut it
when it comes to right vs. wrong and common sense vs. pathological
habit. You've been tapped by the sicknees stick little dicky, and you
really don't have any way out. you'll take your and your wife;s
disgrace to your graves, and decent people will pass by and spit on
both of them because of how you have tried and tried to tell them
your illnesses were OK to have in tainted lives.

And, just like Biff, it has gotten you nowhere. Listen to your

Oh but it has! I gewt ENORMOUS satisfaction in both ridiculing &
humiliating you on every subject, and denying you the right
to 'belong' to that which you so dearly long for in the vp community.
So for now, all you can do is show your interest by being a problem
gambler!

Lie. I don't "minimalize" anything. It makes you look foolish to keep

First, he states I "minimalize" and then when I give a longer version

What's this 'inner voice' you seem to use as your new crutch?

The voice of your inner self. It's what you could have become (and
still could) if, instead of justifying your abuser, you confronted
him. Instead of justifying his abuse, you recognized that abuse was
wrong. Instead of BECOMING the abuser you chose to live a normal life.

Anyway,
you'll say anything that justifies your inordinate amount of visits
to casinos. That's because you have no way out. Your weeny and
pathetic gambling life - which is your WHOLE life - would be over

if

that ever happened.

Let's look at this more closely. I've been to a casino 3 times since
I left LV on 3/12. The next visit is planned for 4/17. I wonder how
biffy-boy will lie about this after continually stating an addiction
requires daily visits?

No "falsely" involved, just the facts, as usual.

You're so
full of it. You don't "weigh all the pluses & minuses....you simply
cannot wait to get in the car and zoom over to the casino whenever
the urge overtakes you and that gambling addict wife of yours.

3 times in 39 days. Yup, you really nailed that one. LMAO. Let's see
you make another foolish statement. (I'm sure you will).

What a
truly pathetic way to be a 'family'--which in itself is an insult

to

every decent family in this country.

The inner voice speaks about Robs' family life. Listen to it and get
help.

LMAO. If by reality you mean making a complete fool of yourself, yes,
I absolutely agree.

All your make-believe trade-off nonsense doesn't cut it
when it comes to right vs. wrong and common sense vs. pathological
habit.

Of course it "cuts" it. Just because it trumps all of your lies is
something you will have to deal with.

You've been tapped by the sicknees stick little dicky, and you
really don't have any way out. you'll take your and your wife;s
disgrace to your graves, and decent people will pass by and spit on
both of them because of how you have tried and tried to tell them

ROTFLMAO. I believe your inner voice is trying to tell you something
again.

Oh but it has! I gewt ENORMOUS satisfaction in both ridiculing &
humiliating you on every subject, and denying you the right
to 'belong' to that which you so dearly long for in the vp

community.

So for now, all you can do is show your interest by being a problem
gambler!

We can see that your inner voice is telling you how much the rest of
us enjoy seeing you scramble around and look foolish. It's hoping
you'll take note one of these days and get help.

Let's talk about how it feels to be toilet paper--used only! Give

us

some insight.

The insight is already there in these inner voice statements. Take

Lie. I don't "minimalize" anything. It makes you look foolish to

keep

asserting these lies and never backing them up.

Even when you can't admit taking it in the shorts, you do. When you
mininimalize what truly affects you all you do is cut yourself short.
Just like with your compulsive gambling--where you have a craving to
find a reason to go out yet again and gamble--you have a pattern of
selling yourself short. You simply just don't know the difference
between good & evil or right & wrong any more - as you so vividly
portray here with your scooting around every issue possible - and
it's all because of the vice you're so firmly in the grips of. It
controls your wretched life! That's all you do in this entire post --
step away from the evil you in reality put yourselves in daily, walk
around the dangers of such idiocy, and then minimalize how it
affects "others" and not you with some double-talking nonsense. Read
it and weep.

16 words this time. I guess Biffy-boy has no idea what being "at a
loss for words" means. Not surprising.

As he falls into the pit once again. Just how much punishment can a
nerd take anyway??

LMAO. You know your inner voice is right. Your life is a failure.
It's not to late, get help.

Now he can't count anymore--likely because he was wounded by my
repeated spankings he had to absorb from ME!

And did i mention little dicky's low self-esteem? Most addicted
gamblers have it, and most addicted gamblers who involve their
spouses (or 'partners who live in sin as in one guru's case) find
comfort hiding behind their computers while they blab about their
make believe prowess.

We can see that your inner voice is telling you how much the rest

of us enjoy seeing you scramble around and look foolish. It's hoping

you'll take note one of these days and get help.

The only thing you should be hoping for, little dicky, is that you'll
run into the maximum number of addicts similar to you as possible in
those dumps you go to. that way you can at least feel you 'virtually
belong' to that which you will never belong to. Tsk...tsk...tsk.

The insight is already there in these inner voice statements. Take
heed, Robbie, listen closely and get help.

Still waiting to hear what it's like being used as toilet
paper.....Only YOU can tell us!

Even when you can't admit taking it in the shorts, you do. When you
mininimalize what truly affects you all you do is cut yourself

short.

If making you look foolish cuts ones' life short, then I do need to
worry.

Just like with your compulsive gambling--where you have a craving

to

find a reason to go out yet again and gamble--you have a pattern of
selling yourself short.

Do you even understand what "selling yourself short" means? It means
I'm even better than I claim. Thanks.

You simply just don't know the difference
between good & evil or right & wrong any more - as you so vividly
portray here with your scooting around every issue possible - and
it's all because of the vice you're so firmly in the grips of. It
controls your wretched life! That's all you do in this entire post -

-

step away from the evil you in reality put yourselves in daily,

walk

around the dangers of such idiocy, and then minimalize how it
affects "others" and not you with some double-talking nonsense.

Read

it and weep.

Don't count on it. I can see your inner voice all over this. Yes, you
are often "wrong". Yes, the way you treat others is "evil". Yes, you
display constant "idiocy". Yes, you "minimalize" the effect this has
had on you and your family. Yes, you "double-talk" with lies and your
con. Your inner voice knows the truth. Get help.

there's that minimalization oce again. Can you ever live without
it?? Is your life THAT make believe???

Not here. Guess again. Always trying to mince words to look good,
but all you ever really do is profess your extraordinary set of
weaknesses and faults.

Don't count on it. I can see your inner voice all over this. Yes,

you

are often "wrong". Yes, the way you treat others is "evil". Yes,

you

display constant "idiocy". Yes, you "minimalize" the effect this

And just as expected, you show us how to weep.....
