Tobacco (Daniel Alcorta 4th)

For more than 50 years we've known that smoking can kill you. It is still the leading cause of preventable death in the U.S. and yet 42.1 million people light up and new smokers start every day. "Smoking is my best friend," Atlantan Barry Blackwell said. "It's always with me long after friends have left and people have gone, they are always here." To help people who do want to quit,scientists have looked with great interest into what works. Especially since studies have shown that 90% of those who try to quit, will start smoking again despite their best efforts.

Smoking tobacco one of the worst things you can do to your body more specifically your lungs. Tobacco was the leading export during colonial period and for some time after that. IF you told colonists that tobacco would be so addictive and harmful to your body they wouldn't believe you.
