How Cigarette Effects the IQ


 Cigarette Smoking is a deadly habit. It can be classified as one of the Moharramat. It literally kills!!! Cigarettes are not only injurious while puffing on it, but it also disturbs the life of the smoker. The smoker’s addiction causes distraction from Work Life and Social Life. They tend to consume more and more. 
  On day 1 it's a puff, then a cigarette, then two... then the day comes when even a pack seems to be short of fulfilling the needs. The reason? Is it a trendy and a popular thing to do? Or some just get too addicted to it? While others believe that it heightens senses and sharpens the IQ level. (I've heard a lot of smokers say about this feeling.)
