It's just one cigarette...but wow! That little thing has over 4,000 chemicals in it! You already know that cigarettes contain Nicotine, but did you know that Nicotine is also used in bug spray? Before you decide to light up, you might want to know just what you or your acquaintances inhaling. Below are
just a few of the other chemicals found in cigarettes: Tar: this ingredient, which gives cigarettes flavor, is the same thick black substance used to pave roads and driveways. Formaldehyde: this is the same stuff used to preserve dead animals, like the frogs dissected in some biology classes. Cyanide: which is also a main ingredient in rat poison. Lead: it's also found in some kinds of paint. Acetone: which is a common ingredient in paint and nail polish remover. Ammonia: besides the fact that it's in many household cleaners, it's also in cigarettes. Carbon monoxide: a common pollutant and the same stuff that escapes from the exhaust in cars. Hydrazine: a chemical used in jets and rocket fuel.  -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

                          Smoking is one of the worst things kids or adults can do to their bodies. Yet every single day about 3,900 kids between the ages 12 and 17 start smoking. Smoking is one of the most difficult addictions to break. Scientists believe that smoking cigarettes is more addicting than cocaine, heroin, or alcohol.
