Kcancer Hosts Forums on Smoking and Lung Cancer

Nov. 6, 2009 - PRLog -- New York and San Diego - Kcancer, Inc. announces to host forums to address smoking and lung cancer relevant issues during lung cancer awareness month. About 90% lung cancer is closely related to tobacco smoking. Cigarette smoke contains about 4,000 chemical agents, among them more than 60 carcinogens have been identified. In addition, many of these substances, such as carbon monoxide, tar, arsenic, and lead, are poisonous and toxic to the human body.

Nicotine is a drug that is naturally present in the tobacco plant and is primarily responsible for a person’s addiction to tobacco products, including cigarettes. During smoking, nicotine is absorbed quickly into the bloodstream and travels to the brain instantly. Nicotine causes addiction to cigarettes and other tobacco products that is similar to the addiction produced by using heroin and cocaine.

Let’s all work together to organize rallies, distribute educational materials, hold fund-raising events, speak to media, and ultimately raise awareness for smoking and lung cancer. Everyone is encouraged to participate in activities to honor those affected by lung cancer.

Prevention or discontinuation of tobacco use is the best way to achieve the goal. This is everyone’s responsibility. However, it is a fact that many tobacco smokers have tried to stop smoking many times and have failed over and over again. When smokers have tried everything they know of and still continue to smoke, we need to have alternative approaches to reach that goal.

Cigarette manufacturers need to continuously improve their production procedure and generate high quality tobacco products. Nicotine replacement products, such as, nicotine gums, nicotine inhalers, nicotine sublingual tablets, and nicotine patches etc, are effective way to quit or reduce smoking and minimize the catastrophic health effects linked to cigarette smoking. Human vaccine to nicotine is another alternative way to help tobacco smoker. The electric cigarette offers an alternative to smoking tobacco, yet still allows them to have the nicotine they want and to engage in the most realistic mock smoking act available.

Please join us and make contributions to this very important discussion.
