#SMOKING, #HEALTH, #OBESITY & #MORTALITY Smoking and obesity are independent predictors of mortality, but smoking and being obese especially increases the risk of early death and severe health complications. Together, they create a dangerous combination that significantly raises the chances of developing heart disease, stroke, type 2 diabetes, respiratory problems, and certain cancers. While smoking damages the lungs and blood vessels, obesity puts stress on the heart and metabolism, and when both are present, the health risks multiply. Studies have shown that individuals who smoke and are obese face a much higher all-cause mortality rate than those affected by only one of these factors. This combination impacts immune function, worsens insulin resistance, and contributes to chronic inflammation in the body. The need for lifestyle changes becomes even more urgent when both smoking and obesity are present. Quitting smoking, adopting a balanced diet, exercising regularly, managing stress, and getting routine medical checkups can drastically reduce health risks. Awareness and early action can save lives—your body deserves better. Say no to tobacco, say yes to health, and take a stand against obesity for a longer, stronger life.
