The study of "Environmental tobacco smoke and cardiometabolic risk in young children" is published in the European Heart Journal, at here mentioned that damage from passive smoking can be found in the blood vessels of children just 10 years old.

Parents who smoke in the home can cause their child's arteries to show signs of clogging and hardening, dramatically raising their overall life-time risk of heart attack.

At other study on German mentioned which took in almost 400 10-year-olds found those with smoking parents could also have emerging signs of atherosclerosis.

Earlier research has shown a link between second-hand smoke and the condition in adults.

"To show that in healthy 10-year-old kids they've got these increased markers of what we normally associate with a really bad risk of heart attack is alarming," Australian atherosclerosis expert Professor David Celermajer said.

"This is from being exposed to passive smoke from their parents all their lives.

"These children are not about to drop dead when they're 11 or 12 but it indicates they're a three or four-fold higher risk of heart attack in their 40s or 50s."

Prof Celermajer, of Sydney University and Royal Prince Alfred Hospital, says an Australian study conducted in 1996 also found evidence of blood vessel damage in 15-year-olds who were exposed to passive smoke in the home.

He says while research suggested these ill effects could be reversed within two years if the child lived in a smoke-free house, for many the ramifications of parental smoking were lifelong.

"I see a lot of people with heart attacks in their 40s and 50s, who have no risk factors at all except having exposure to passive smoke in childhood," Prof Celermajer said.

"So it starts a process that becomes accelerated in that person ... (smoking) casts a long shadow."

A coalition of health and child welfare organisations says the study showed why government needed to speed up smoke-free reforms.

"This is more evidence pointing to the need for all public areas frequented by children including dining areas, playgrounds, public pools, beaches and sports fields, to be made smoke-free by law," Protecting Children from Tobacco spokesman Stafford Sanders said.

"... and for any governments that have not yet made cars carrying children smoke-free to do so quickly." Give up to Stop Smoking.

Stop Smooking Tips. Trying to quit smoking will likely take a very large amount of dedication and determination from you personally. At the same there are plenty of problems that you may encounter as well.

Knowing what these potential problems are and having a specific plan for your success is important. Knowing exactly what you are trying to do will enable you to plan for success, rather than merely stumble along trying to quit.

Step 1. You need to take the time to create a plan to stop smoking. This means looking at the reason why you smoke, and working to create a plan that will help you to succeed.

If you are addicted to nicotine then you need to look at a stop smoking product to help you slowly curb the nicotine addiction. If you merely smoke because you are bored you should look for thing to do to keep you occupied instead of bored. However, if you are smoking because you are stressed out then your plan should include a way to reduce stress as well.

Step 2. Seek all of the help you can get. With help coming in the form of stop smoking aids, as well as support from your friends and family it will be very important to get anything you can.

If you have a lot of problems getting the help that you need, you should work to resolve these problems before you attempt to stop smoking. For example, if you have a very tight budget and cannot afford the nicotine gum that you might need, save up money for a couple of weeks to purchase the gum to start with. Then once you have what you need, start working to actually quit.

Step 3. Log your progress. If you write down your goals, and also how you are progressing towards your goals you are making yourself accountable for everything.

For example, if you decide that you are going to reduce your one pack a day habit to only 10 cigarettes each day it is important to write down each cigarette that you smoke. This will allow you to see a specific pattern to your smoking, and also make sure you are aware of how many cigarettes you are smoking each day.

You may find that as you are writing down each cigarette you decide to skip a few just so that you do not have to write them down. If you choose this method make sure you are really honest with yourself. Cheating on your log will get you nowhere very quickly since the information is all incorrect.

Step 4. Celebrate your success somehow. If you have managed to go 24 hours without a single cigarette, you should celebrate.

This does not mean you need to throw a gigantic block party for each tiny milestone but you do need to do something. If you treat yourself to your favorite coffee, ice cream, book or even the purse at the mall you have had your eye on, it will help encourage you to continue on your path of success.

Save up a huge party, or even a dream vacation for once you have quit smoking for a longer period of time such as 1 year for example. This will give you a huge incentive to continue the success and you can use the money you save from stopping smoking to fund the trip or party.

Always ensure that you follow these steps and you will find that in no time at all, you will be able to join the ranks of the non-smokers of the world. Taking advantage of all of the help available as well as holding yourself accountable is a huge step in the right direction.

Knowing what you should expect from yourself is also helpful because you will be able to anticipate problems before they appear. Merely waiting until problems do occur is asking for a disaster. You owe it to yourself to quit smoking successfully, and these four suggestions will get you there in record time.

You can eat five portions of fruit and veg a day and exercise regularly, but healthy behaviour means little if you continue to smoke. The message that 'smoking is bad for you' is an old one, so not everyone gives it their full attention. Below we list the health risks of smoking.

Why you must quit smoking?

Term watch ‘Cardiovascular’ means the heart and circulation.

Cardiovascular disease causes:
  • poor circulation
  • angina (chest pains)
  • heart attacks
  • stroke.
Most people know that smoking can cause lung cancer, but it can also cause many other cancers and illnesses. Smoking kills around 114,000 people in the UK each year. Of these deaths, about 42,800 are from smoking-related cancers, 30,600 from cardiovascular disease and 29,100 die slowly from emphysema and other chronic lung diseases.

How do cigarettes damage health?

Cigarettes contain more than 4000 chemical compounds and at least 400 toxic substances. When you inhale, a cigarette burns at 700°C at the tip and around 60°C in the core. This heat breaks down the tobacco to produce various toxins. As a cigarette burns, the residues are concentrated towards the butt.

The products that are most damaging are:
  • tar, a carcinogen (substance that causes cancer)
  • nicotine is addictive and increases cholesterol levels in your body
  • carbon monoxide reduces oxygen in the body
  • components of the gas and particulate phases cause chronic obstructive pulmonary disorder (COPD).
The damage caused by smoking is influenced by:
# the number of cigarettes smoked
# whether the cigarette has a filter
# how the tobacco has been prepared.

Smoking affects how long you live

Research has shown that smoking reduces life expectancy by seven to eight years. Did you know? On average, each cigarette shortens a smoker's life by around 11 minutes. Of the 300 people who die every day in the UK as a result of smoking, many are comparatively young smokers. The number of people under the age of 70 who die from smoking-related diseases exceeds the total figure for deaths caused by breast cancer, AIDS, traffic accidents and drug addiction. Non-smokers and ex-smokers can also look forward to a healthier old age than smokers.

Major diseases caused by smoking

Cardiovascular disease

Cardiovascular disease is the main cause of death due to smoking.

Hardening of the arteries is a process that develops over years, when cholesterol and other fats deposit in the arteries, leaving them narrow, blocked or rigid. When the arteries narrow (atherosclerosis), blood clots are likely to form.

Smoking accelerates the hardening and narrowing process in your arteries: it starts earlier and blood clots are two to four times more likely.

Cardiovasular disease can take many forms depending on which blood vessels are involved, and all of them are more common in people who smoke.
A fatal disease

Blood clots in the heart and brain are the most common causes of sudden death. Smokers tend to develop coronary thrombosis 10 years earlier than non-smokers, and make up 9 out of 10 heart bypass patients.

Cancer

Smokers are more likely to get cancer than non-smokers. This is particularly true of lung cancer, throat cancer and mouth cancer, which hardly ever affect non-smokers. The more cigarettes you smoke in a day, and the longer you've smoked, the higher your risk of lung cancer. Similarly, the risk rises the deeper you inhale and the earlier in life you started smoking.

For ex-smokers, it takes approximately 15 years before the risk of lung cancer drops to the same as that of a non-smoker.

If you smoke, the risk of contracting mouth cancer is four times higher than for a non-smoker. Cancer can start in many areas of the mouth, with the most common being on or underneath the tongue, or on the lips.

COPD

Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is a collective term for a group of conditions that block airflow and make breathing more difficult, such as:
Term watch

Chronic means long term, not severe.
  • emphysema - breathlessness caused by damage to the air sacs (alveoli)
  • chronic bronchitis - coughing with a lot of mucus that continues for at least three months.
Smoking is the most common cause of COPD and is responsible for 80 per cent of cases.

It's estimated that 94 per cent of 20-a-day smokers have some emphysema when the lungs are examined after death, while more than 90 per cent of non-smokers have little or none.

COPD typically starts between the ages of 35 and 45 when lung function starts to decline anyway.
