Legislators continue cigarette tax debate

Edit Article |

The rising cost of car tags is grabbing headlines as six state legislators return to Jackson Tuesday to continue debating how much to raise Mississippi’s cigarette tax, but the equally serious matter of smoking and its health care costs remains a major part of the debate.

The House and Senate have passed different versions of a cigarette tax increase. The House bill would have raised the cigarette tax to $1 a pack while the Senate approved raising the tax about 49 cents a pack.

A conference committee of three state senators and three House members is trying to resolve the different measures, but they’re stuck.

So far, Senate conferees have agreed to raise the tax to 64 cents a pack.

The House is standing pat at 75 cents a pack.

Negotiations resume Tuesday at the Capitol in Jackson.

Conferees agree raising the cigarette tax will replenish the State Tax Commission fund that rebates auto sales tax money to counties to help hold down the cost of car tags.

When the cost of cigarettes goes up, the number of smokers goes down. That means state and federal government have to spend less on smoking-related illnesses such as cancer, heart disease, stroke and respiratory illnesses like emphysema.

The largest increase in federal tobacco taxes occurred April 1 when the tax rate rose from 39 cents to $1.01 per pack of cigarettes.

That move is expected to result in a million smokers giving up the habit and prevent 2 million young people from ever starting, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.

In Mississippi, the Campaign for Tobacco-Free Kids estimated that that state spends $8.37 in health care for every 18 cents — the current state cigarette tax rate per pack — collected in cigarette taxes.

Mississippi’s cigarette tax rate is the third-lowest in the country.

Meantime, quitting smoking is one of three health care practices — childhood immunizations and the prophylactic use of aspirin (mainly to prevent heart disease) are the others — that the state funds, which will result in a net gain for taxpayers, said Thomas Payne, a clinical psychologist and associate director of The ACT Center for Tobacco Treatment and Research at the University of Mississippi Medical Center.

“We collect 18 cents (in taxes) and shell out $8.37 in health care per pack of cigarettes sold,” Payne said.

“This is very costly to society. For every pack of cigarettes sold, we lose more than $8.”

Additionally, treating smokers who are on Medicaid is costly for the state. The federal government funds about 76 cents of every Medicaid dollar spent in Mississippi. The state pays the rest.

The CDC estimates up to 37 percent of Medicaid recipients are smokers, which means state and federal governments eventually will have to pay health care cost for them.

About 24 percent of Mississippians are smokers, Payne said.

He noted a direct correlation between education levels and smoking. Only 5-6 percent of individuals holding doctoral degrees smoke, but more than 20 percent of people who did not finish high school are smokers.

“The higher the education and income level, the lower the rate of smoking,” he said.

Online Cigarette Stores and Discount Coupons

The very thought of buying cheap cigarettes may sound very stupid to most smokers since companies selling tobacco products are having a lot of legal hassles and the state governments are levying more taxes and that too at unheard of rates which has made finding cigarettes at low or even discounted costs a pretty difficult thing. Today, no longer do the local newsstands and convenience stores provide discount cheap cigarettes, which was the case some five years back.

Electronic Cigarettes the Less Harmful Way to Smoke

Edit Article |

]]>

Smoking has been accounted to a number of life-threatening diseases. Most of such diseases, particularly those that lead to respiratory tract infection and lung cancer, roots from its toxic nature. Thankfully, along with the advancement in science, electric cigarettes have been invented. It is a gadget that is designed to copy the actual smoking experience minus the well-known dangers brought by the habit. Hence, it presents a safer way to continue smoking and a great tool for those who wanted to gradually quit smoking.

Electric cigarettes are designed to deliver comparably satisfying smoking experience minus the overwhelming health risks. In lighting up a traditional tobacco cigarette, noxious gases and other harmful materials are produced through the combustion of tobacco. These substances, which include carbon monoxide, are known causes of diseases to the organs and systems related to the respiration process. With electric cigarettes, the need to burn actual tobacco has been replaced with the use of a special liquid formula that delivers the smokers’ needed nicotine fix. The fluid is atomized and directly inhaled without producing the noxious gases, which are more popularly known as second hand smoke.

The specially formulated smoking liquid solution used by electric cigarettes is particularly helpful as a way of managing nicotine addiction. It was even claimed as a legitimate smoking cessation aid, being used as a safe and effective coping tool for people undergoing nicotine replacement therapy. Hence, it enables people to quit nicotine without the need to give up smoking habits. With no fire, tar, ash and stub, electric cigarettes can give smokers the satisfaction of getting the tactile taste sensations that tobacco cigarettes normally offer.

So what exactly is in the liquid nicotine solution of an electric cigarette? The answer would be propylene glycol. Aside from delivering the sensations delivered by nicotine, the solution provides flavor and variety to one’s smoking experience. To add variety to smoking experience, electronic cigarettes define a whole new range of smoking flavors. Aside from the conventional fruity cigarette flavors, electric cigarettes are available in more interesting flavors which include coffee, vanilla, mint and original tobacco. It gives out the sensation that smoker experience when inhaling tobacco smoke.

One great thing about electric cigarettes is that they effectively copy the actual smoking experience without causing the hassles that tobacco cigarettes normally bring. They do not produce clouds of smoke and they do not leave tobacco scent on the clothes of the smokers. This is why a number of European pubs and clubs have been promoting its use. Without the need to constantly monitor their patrons and at the same time safeguarding the health of their non-smoking customers, they see electric cigarettes as the best alternative to smoking traditional tobacco cigarettes.

Electric cigarettes are all about simulated smoking experience. In bringing the wonderful ingenuity of modern science, they successfully answer all smokers’ prayer for safer smoking alternative. They produce simulated smoke or vapor mist that looks, tastes and feels like true cigarette. These vapors are more directly delivered to the smoker, preventing the vapors from being given out in the environment. They deliver all these great things with absolutely no use for tobacco. Electronic cigarettes simply offer care-free, worry-free and guilt-free smoking experience.

While the media has long promoted the link between smoking and lung cancer, numerous other diseases are prevalent among smokers.  Heart disease is just one of the terrifying possibilities. More than 440,000 people die from smoking-related diseases every year in the US, alone.  This number does not account for the tens of thousands of others who die in other countries around the globe. What does smoking have to do with heart disease?  Can you stop smoking and reduce your risk of developing this life-threatening disorder?

Smoking is able to influence your chances of developing heart disease all by itself.  However, when added to the sedentary lifestyle most Americans have, the results can be catastrophic. Cigarette smoke has been shown to increase blood pressure, as well as increasing the clotting within your blood.  This leads to numerous problems throughout the entire body, but especially for the heart.  Smoking also decreases the body’s tolerance for exercise, making you winded far sooner than a nonsmoker.  This helps increase any sedentary habits.  If you stop smoking today, you can help ensure you live a long, healthy life.

In addition, women using oral birth control pills are at incredible risks of developing high blood pressure (hypertension), heart attack, heart disease and stroke from cigarette smoke.  Cigarette smoke has also been shown to decrease the amount of good cholesterol in your body, helping bad cholesterol to build up on the walls of your arteries, increasing blood pressure and the chance of heart attack.

Even second hand smoke can greatly increase the chance of developing heart disease in those around you.  Thus, that pleasurable habit may be killing the ones you love. It seems a very high price to pay for the pleasure of a single cigarette.  Even pipes and cigars seem to damage the body, though cigarettes are the deadliest.  While lung cancer may lead to a drawn out, painful death, dying by inches, as it were, heart disease can be just as terrible.

If you stop smoking today, you can avoid a hideous fate.  Heart disease, peripheral artery disease, hypertension and other related disorders can cause you to be short tempered, reduce your enjoyment of life, even limit your mobility, keeping you bound to your home.  Heart disease is a slow, wasting process, just like lung cancer, but the signs can be less obvious – though no less horrifying.

Dealing With Weight Gain After Quitting Smoking

Nicotine is the number one culprit why it’s so hard to quit smoking. Nicotine is highly addictive. It is also a stimulant that boosts the body’s metabolism and accelerates fat loss. Another thing about nicotine is it curbs your appetite. With all these properties of nicotine, it’s no surprise why most smokers are a bit on the skinny side. (There are always exceptions of course.)

What Diseases Can You Get From Smoking?

Edit Article |

Posted: Oct 13, 2010 |Comments: 0

]]>

As we all know, hundreds of thousands of people die each year from smoking related diseases. Usually these involve various types of cancer, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, and heart disease. In fact, the World Health Organization estimates that approximately 50% of all smokers die from one or other smoking related disease.

Even more alarming is the fact that a long term smoker will generally live ten years less than they would have had they not smoked cigarettes. For example, 80% of non-smokers in the United Kingdom live past the age of 70, but only 50% of long-term smokers live long enough to celebrate their 70th birthday. Of course, the younger you are when you start, and the longer you leave it before giving up the habit, the more chance there is that you’ll die prematurely.

Something else to bear in mind is that smoking related diseases very rarely result in a quick and painless death. To the contrary, sufferers usually have to endure months, if not years, of extremely unpleasant symptoms. Even those diseases which aren’t fatal can still leave you to cope with years of unpleasantness. Fortunately, however, there is at least some good news as well, in that it is never too late to give up. Irrespective of when you decide to quit, it will still benefit your health enormously.

This is something the general population tends to be taking seriously nowadays. For example, 50% of the UK’s adult population smoked cigarettes in the early seventies, whereas today, less than 25% of UK adults smoke. Similar statistics in the U.S. suggests that this downward trend appears to be taking place on a global scale, as more and more people begin to understand the real risks involved.

Before we go on to look at the various diseases caused by cigarette smoke, let’s take a quick look at what that smoke actually contains.

Nicotine – Nicotine acts by stimulating the brain, and because it’s addictive, smokers become dependent on it and suffer from withdrawal symptoms if they’re deprived of the drug.

Tar – Tar in itself contains thousands of chemicals. In fact, there are more than 4000 known chemicals present it tar, and of these, at least 50 are known to be carcinogenic. In other words, they are known to cause cancer.

Carbon Monoxide – This substance interferes with the way in which blood carries oxygen around the body, and it’s particularly dangerous to pregnant women and their unborn children.

Now that you’re aware of what you’re breathing in each time you smoke a cigarette, let’s move on to the smoking related diseases.

1. Cancer

According to the World Health Organization, more than 80% of lung cancer cases are linked directly to smoking. Alarmingly enough, there were more than 150,000 lung cancer deaths in the United States last year. Even in the UK, where less than 25% of adults smoke, there were still more than 30,000 recorded cases. Smoking is also known to cause a variety of other cancers. These include but are not limited to: leukemia, cancer of the mouth and throat, cancer of the gullet, and cancer of the kidneys.

2. COPD (Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease)

This is the second biggest smoking related killer. In fact, COPD is a serious lung condition which claims the lives of approximately 25,000 people in the UK every year. In the United States, COPD is currently the fourth leading cause of death, and as with lung cancer, 80% of cases are directly linked to smoking. The disease is extremely unpleasant and death usually only occurs after several years of suffering.

3. Heart Disease

Heart Disease kills more people than any other disease. For example, more than 120,000 people perish from heart disease each year in the UK. In the United States, the picture seems to be even bleaker, with an estimated 800,000 dying from heart disease yearly. Once again, many of these deaths are due to smoking.

4. Poor Circulation

Several chemicals present in tobacco smoke have an adverse effect on circulation. They are also known to cause “hardening of the arteries, which in turn is the leading cause of strokes.

5. Sexual Dysfunction

People who smoke are more likely to suffer from conditions such as impotence. Many smokers, even though they’re not considered to be impotent, will experience difficulty maintaining an erection by the time they reach their mid-thirties. Smoking is also believed to increase the risk of infertility in both men and women.

6. Premature Aging of the Skin

As strange as what it may seem, many people are more concerned about the appearance of wrinkles than they are about cancer. In fact, thousands and thousands of people have quit smoking simply because smoking encourages premature aging of the skin, and of course most people want to maintain a youthful appearance for as long as possible.

Over and above the diseases discussed above, smoking also aggravates many other conditions. These include but are not limited to:

1. Asthma
2. Colds and flu
3. Respiratory infections
4. Multiple sclerosis
5. Crohn’s disease

Smoking can also put you at risk of developing a range of other unpleasant diseases such as gum disease, osteoporosis, and muscular degeneration, to name just a few.

Isn’t it amazing how some people are still willing to put themselves at such risk and that just because they feel like having a cigarette? The best advice anyone can give you, is that you quit today, because after all, tomorrow may be too late.

Why Should You Franchise?

Sometimes when people have a hard time starting up a business of their own, they opt for franchising. Franchising is a business relationship in which the owner of the business (called the franchiser) gives the independent businessperson (the franchisee) the right to use the business name, to market the product or service and to distribute such product such as goods and services.

We Cought Up with Carl Phillips of the Tobacco Harm Reduction Institute at the University of Alberta To Talk About The Safety Of Electric Cigarettes

]]>

ECD: Given what we know about the ingredients and carcinogens contained within the electronic cigarette, is there reason to believe it could be a safer alternative to regular cigarettes?

Carl Phillips: I think that’s quite an understatement. I think there’s absolutely no doubt that it is a safer alternative to regular cigarettes. Now safe, that’s a word that implies there is absolutely no health risk from something, and that doesn’t really apply to anything. But our estimate is that it is probably in the order of 99 percent less harmful than smoking, I think there’s little doubt that it’s down in the neighborhood.

ECD: Professor Michael Siegel suggested that if we banned electronic cigarettes based on the carcinogens found in the FDA study we would have to ban peanut butter. Is that something you would agree with?

Carl Phillips: At least! We’d have to ban half the foods that are available. I mean, the FDA study really didn’t find any cancer risk. That study was basically pure propaganda.

ECD: Is there any danger of passive smoking with electronic cigarettes?

Carl Phillips: Probably not. As far as we know, the vapour, the propylene glycol vapour, has no human health risks at low concentrations, so it’s possible that there’s some miniscule risk, far too small for us to have ever noticed it or measured it. The amount of nicotine that escapes out into the air is also quite trivial and nicotine itself has such a low risk profile… so again it is never proper science to say that there is absolutely no risk from something, just as it is not proper science to say simply that there is a risk from something without trying to quantify it. But I guess there is no serious risk from second hand vapour as I guess it would have to be called.

ECD: In your opinion, could the electronic cigarette aid smoking cessation or be of use as a tobacco harm reduction product?

Carl Phillips: Yes, not only could it but it clearly is already being used for exactly that. Self reports suggest that thousands, tens of thousands of smokers have quit smoking by switching to the electronic cigarette which is the perfect proof that it does work as a smoking cessation aid and a tobacco harm reduction tool. A good example of a reliable ecig brand is Endless Vapor, not only is it  the highest quality ecig on the market, but they also donate a percentage of profits to cancer reaserch.

ECD: Electronic Cigarettes have been in use for several years now, and there are a few organisations which are concerned about them. What side effects have been found so far?

Carl Phillips: As far as I know there hasn’t been any discoveries of acute side effects, which of course is good news. There is no reason to expect any but you never know quite what is going to happen with a new exposure. You can have reports that start to trickle in of a case here or there of something very strange happening. I’m not aware of any such thing. We of course know that long term use of nicotine poses a small, a very small but non-zero risk of some cardiovascular diseases so I suppose you could call that a side effect which is predictable for the long run, but that’s a total risk which is down in the range of drinking coffee, nothing remotely similar to the risk from smoking cigarettes.

ECD: What’s your biggest concern with regards to the electronic cigarette?

Carl Phillips: Well, we don’t know too much about the manufacturing process and there’s not enough quality control, or at least there is not enough guarantee of quality control in the process. Now, this of course varies from manufacturer to manufacturer, but with reasonably free entry that just about anybody with an appropriate factory in China can start manufacturing these and start putting them out under some brand name there is worry about contamination. I mean this is not a plastic toy or something like that, which alone generates a lot of worry about Chinese manufacturers. This is something that is delivering chemicals into the body in a way which is definitely going to be absorbed so it doesn’t take much of a production mishap to create something that is very harmful. And I really fear that it is going to happen one of these days if we don’t get some effective regulation and it is going to give the entire product line a bad name which of course would be inappropriate but quite understandable. I have to reference endlessvapor.com again because the manufacturing standards are very high so there are no worries about contamination.

ECD: Following on from those concerns about the quality of production, let’s talk about the FDA. The FDA carried out tests on electronic cigarettes in which they found diethylene glycol in one “Smoking Everywhere” e-cigarette and traces of tobacco specific nitrosamines in both Smoking Everywhere and NJOY electronic cigarettes. So what are the significance of those findings?

Carl Phillips: There’s no significance of those findings whatsoever from a scientific or health standpoint. From a political standpoint the fact that they did that was quite significant. So on the first point the fact that there are any detectable levels of any small molecules that can be found in the tobacco plant in the e-cigarettes is not surprising at all. The nicotine comes from tobacco and our ability to detect a few stray molecules of contamination means that basically any molecule that is small enough to be a contaminant that is found in the tobacco plant will also be found in e-cigarettes. It’ll also be found in nicoderm, nicorette, any product that contains nicotine that has been extracted from a tobacco plant. So that’s completely meaningless – the quantities of the nitrosamines in the electronic cigarette were so many orders of magnitude smaller than those, say, in smokeless tobacco, which has been shown to not cause a measurable risk of cancer, so we know that this doesn’t matter. Now, there is some more significance in finding contamination in the carrier chemicals, not that there was enough in this particular case that it was going to be harmful but because there is not supposed to be anything other than the propylene glycol and the water there, it does mean that there is a manufacturing problem – a manufacturing problem under some circumstances could be quite a bad thing. Now what really is the biggest problem is the politics that this reflects.This shows up in all sorts of harm reduction type situations and the basic rule of thumb is, if you ban something or if you’re trying to ban something, declare war on it, then you can’t regulate it, you can’t make it safer. So if you have a war on injection drug use and you simply want to forbid it and don’t want to admit it is happening in any way, you will prevent needle exchanges from happening which would save a lot of lives. If you want to have a war on prostitution and just absolutely forbid it and pretend it doesn’t exist then it is impossible to impose rules that force prostitutes to get health exams and so forth. Similarly if the FDA is intent on declaring war on electronic cigarettes and simply forcing them from the market then they are going to be abdicating their responsibility to make sure that the electronic cigarettes are what they are supposed to be and keep them safe and that goes back to this quality control problem. The FDA would really be the perfect entity to help impose some quality control on ecig manufacture even though they are manufactured in a different country but it looks pretty bad in terms of the possibility of them doing that.

ECD: What health benefits, if any, might smokers find if they smoked electronic cigarettes, or changed to electronic cigarettes?

Carl Phillips: The health benefits of switching are almost exactly the same as the health benefits of quitting, and this applies to electronic cigarettes, smokeless tobacco and pharmaceutical nicotine. If a smoker can manage to switch from smoking to one of those other products the benefits are approximately the same as quitting – they lower their cancer risk, they lower their cardiovascular disease risk, they get rid of acute symptoms of lung and airway problems, a risk that comes from smoking for pulmonary diseases and so forth. Switching is so close as good as quitting that from a health point of view there is no point in worrying about the difference.

Heavy Smokers Have a Dementia Disease Risk

Edit Article |

Heavy smokers would be very threatened to have the dementia disease or senile . Those who are used to smoke two packs of cigarettes per day would be very risky two times more likely to suffer from dementia at the time of middle age.

Dementia disease Alzheimer’s is a degeneration of the brain that would commonly be found and most feared. People suffering from dementia will experience a disruption of memory, language, and disorientation.

The relationship between dementia disease with real cigarettes has long been studied. But this new research conducted by analysis of 21,000 people. In the long-term research that can be seen that the risk of dementia will take place in heavy smokers, including for people who spend a pack of cigarettes per day or more.

However, an increasing number of cigarettes smoked increased the risk of associated diseases. Someone who smoked more than 40 cigarettes a day will have a 157 percent higher to suffer from dementia disease Alzheimer’s . And will also increase the risk of interruption of blood supply to the brain. But the good news of this is that the risk of this disease can immediately go down if someone can decide to quit smoking. This can show us that the brain was not immune to the risks of smoking in a very long period of time. Therefore you should not hesitate to stop smoking.

Research also has provided scientific evidence about the dangers of smoking, including increasing the risk of dementia diseases. The risk will be two times greater when compared with not smoking at all. Dementia disease Alzheimer’s will not only rob your memory, but the way this disease will become increasingly severe due to the often times there is a change of behavior, such as being more aggressive, restless, like wandering, hallucinations, sleep disturbances and believe that thinking is very wrong . There is a further case for patients who can no longer recognize his own family members and environment, and also no longer able to communicate well or can no longer do things as simple as eating alone.

Everywhere you go, you can see smokers. In bars, restaurants, clubs, coffee shops and so on, they usually have smoking areas where smoking addicts can satisfy their need for their daily dose of nicotine. Although, the government and also other health organizations express their out most concern about the bad effects of smoking into our lives, people cannot just take away their hands off the sweet temptation of tobacco. It’s becoming an obsession. To help put stop to this, electric cigarette was invented to help cigarette addicts to stay away from tobacco and add more years into their lives.

Electric cigarette or e-cigarette is the new alternative to the old school cigarettes. They are battery-operated vaporizers. Nicotine is inhaled through the device minus the harm of getting the tar and other toxic chemicals from tobacco. Nevertheless, it tastes like the real cigarette so you would not feel that you are inhaling a different stuff. You can also put flavoring on the nicotine solution depending on your choice, like vanilla and caramel. It does not create a smoke or fire which lessens the hassle of going to smoking areas and miss all the fun.

Aside from the above mentioned, there are two more benefits in using electric cigarette that practically sum up the essence of this equipment. One, the very important advantage that you can get from using this device is that you lessen the possibility of acquiring diseases because of smoking tobacco. Tobacco is known to contain harmful chemicals that could harm the body except for nicotine. People can get lung cancer and other cardiovascular diseases that could lead to death. Nevertheless, people are well aware of these facts but they cannot stop smoking easily because they are already obsessed by it.

No matter how hard you want to stop smoking, you cannot just immediately get away from your obsession because you will experience withdrawal symptoms which are pretty tough to handle. However, with e-cigarette, the chemical that you only inhale is nicotine and some other food flavor which can do you good. Studies show that nicotine can reduce the risk of some diseases like Kaposi’s sarcoma, breast cancer, ulcerative colitis, and many more. Aside from that, nicotine can also help as a therapeutic treatment for people experiencing smoking dependence from tobacco. You can spend more time with your family and friends with e-cigarette because your life is spared by this device.

Second, the amount spent for an electric cigarette is cheaper compare to buying several packs of cigarettes in a day. It is believed that one cartridge of an e-cigarette is equals to two packs of cigarette. In addition, if you use the traditional kind of cigarette or pipe, you still need to buy lighters or matches that you essentially need to light your cigarette. With e-cigarette, you just use this device anywhere and anytime you want because it is powered by a battery and you can easily recharge it when the battery runs out. How simple is that?

Do not wait for your doctor to tell you the bad news about your health or experience the hassle of making more money to buy more packs of cigarettes. You can make these sufferings go away with electric cigarette and enjoy your life to the fullest while it lasts.

Abnormal Blood Pressures In Babies Of Mothers Who Smoke Cigarettes

Edit Article |

Posted: Jan 30, 2010 |Comments: 0

]]>

Researchers found that babies of women who smoke cigarettes have abnormal heart rates and blood pressures as compared to infants of nonsmoking mothers, which gets worse as infants get older according to a recent study appearing in Hypertension: Journal of the American Heart Association. The study was conducted using the tilt table test in which babies of smoking mothers and nonsmoking mothers were tested for circulatory responses. The test measures various bodily responses while the patient or baby in this case is tilted to different angles on a tilt table, usually with head up. The tilt table itself is a padded table or plinth, equipped with a footboard, to which a patient can be strapped for rotation to nearly an upright position. It is mainly used in cases where spinal cord and other neurological disorders are suspected to enhance blood flow to lower limbs. It also aids in muscle training and sense of balance, Dorland’s Medical Dictionary.

The tilt test performed by the researchers examined how the infants’ bodies coped with repositioning during the test. Blood pressure responses were recorded while the babies were being tilted upright during sleep. A very noticeable and dramatic difference in babies born to smoking mothers compared to those born to nonsmoking women was discovered.

According to the study, infants that did not get exposed to tobacco smoke experienced only a 2 percent increase in blood pressure when they were tilted upright at one week of age and later a 10 percent increase in blood pressure at one year of age. Infants of smoking mothers on the other hand, had the opposite effect-displaying a whopping 10 percent increase in blood pressure during a tilt at one week of age and a 4 percent increase at one year of age, the study found. These disparaging results became even more alarming when the infants got older-at three months of age and one year of age, the heart rate response to tilting in the tobacco-exposed infants was even more abnormal as compared to those of nonsmoking mothers, the researchers reported.

This study revealed for the first time that babies of smokers have persistent problems in blood pressure regulation that start at birth and get worse over time. Therefore, early life exposure to tobacco smoke can lead to long-lasting reprogramming effects on people’s blood pressure control mechanism, thus compromising people’s health as long as they live, said the researchers.

The study consists of 19 infants from parents who don’t smoke and 17 infants from women who smoke on the average 15 cigarettes per day. Infants were fed breast milk and had normal weight, the study states. All infants in the study had their blood pressure and heart rates taken when they were asleep. They were tilted up at a 60 degree angle during the first weeks of a three month and one year study. They were then lowered back down to the horizontal position, facing up.

The researchers also found that when tobacco smoke-exposed infants were tilted slightly upright and then back down again, their blood pressures went haywire, functioning in erratic ways. Normally, when a person stands up, that person’s heart rate or blood pressure increases, so blood can get to the brain easily, and if that person lay back down, the heart rate or blood pressure would normally slows down and goes back to normal. If we were to equate this scenario with babies of cigarette smoking mothers, we would get the opposite effect. Their blood pressure would actually increase when they are laid back down after standing up–tilting up. Therefore, if the researchers were to placed these infants from smoking mothers in a tilted positioned again, their blood pressure would become low. This would be the perfect condition for fainting-not enough blood to the brain, Dorland’s Medical Dictionary.

This research will continue until the babies get older, so that the researchers can continue to observe whether or not these infants will develop cardiovascular disease in adulthood, the researchers said.

Identifying early warning signs of heart disease in infants could have great public health significance-possibly leading to early diagnosis, treatment and prevention of cardiovascular disease early in life according to the researchers.

In conclusion, babies of mothers who smoke cigarettes could eventually develop heart disease according to a recent study. The table tilt test was used to test infants of cigarette-smoking mothers and infants of nonsmoking mothers. The findings were staggering-infants of mothers who smoke cigarettes showed abnormal and erratic blood pressures while infants of nonsmoking mothers did not.
