What are the reasons for cigarettes?

If your question is "why smoke cigarettes?" then there is a very simple answer. The nicotine releases the endorphins in your brain which causes you to relax or think "happy" feelings. If you are like me however, then you smoke purely for the smoking action and the light headed feeling.

Why some people use cigarette?

A cigarette is a very dangerous drug. Even though millions of people all over United States use it, no one seems to care. When using a cigarette, you suck it like you are sipping a straw. But you inhale it through your mouth gently. When I see people smoke, they breath out their nose or mouth and smoke comes out.

What was the tunnel rats gear in the Vietnam war like?

Guts, .45, and a flashlight in that order. "Most" men didn't want to enter those tunnels; darkness, mangled bodies, snakes, spiders, and booby traps were the reasons why a GI needed guts (courage) to enter them. More often than not a flashlight wasn't even available (or if it was, it didn't work), so the GI had to use a cigarette lighter to see with (many GI's had a cigarette lighter, it was rare for a GI not to smoke cigarettes since every C ration meal had cigarettes in them). So then it often boiled down to just courage and a forty-five.

Does smoking increase metabolism?

The nicotine in cigarette smoke is a stimulant which increases your metabolic rate. This is one of the reasons why people gain weight after quitting. However, the health damages of cigarettes far outweigh any benefit of metabolic rate stimulation. And there are many ways to increase your metabolic rate which are health-supporting, like exercise.

Why there is still cigarette producer while it is so harmful?

Probably for at least a few reasons: 1. Tobacco companies are very rich and politically influential entities in most (if not all) countries. For this reason alone, it is HIGHLY unlikely cigarettes will EVER be illegal. 2. Governments receive ALOT of money from tobacco taxes. For this reason, they would be VERY reluctant to ban cigarettes (and, therefore, give up such a HUGE cash cow). 3. Over a billion people in the world smoke cigarettes. And tens of millions of people smoke cigarettes here in the US. Most are addicted. This creates a relatively large demand for cigarettes. 4. Because of the relatively large demand for cigarettes, making them illegal would simply create a HUGE black market that would be an enforcement nightmare, make criminals out of everyone who smokes, and (much like alcohol prohibition) probably do little to nothing to reduce smoking.
