Too much alcohol is dangerous. Heavydrinking can increase the risk of certain cancers. It can cause damage to the liver, brain, and other organs. Drinking during pregnancy can harm your baby. Alcohol also increases the risk of death from carcrashes, injuries, homicide, and suicide.

If you want to stop drinking, there is help. Start by talking to your health care provider. Treatment may include medicines, counseling, and support groups.

Smoking

 

Smoking is a harmful habit which shortens life. Cigarette smokers absorb nicotine, carcinogenic tars and carbon monoxide into the lungs. Heavy cigarette smokers are 30 times as liable to develop lung cancer as non-smokers are. Prolonged cigarette smoking causes progressive cough and difficulty breathing leading to respiratory incapacity. While smoking is bad for your health at any time, there are a lot of hazards during pregnancy. Pregnant women who smoke cigarettes have smaller babies than nonsmokers, with a higher incidence of fetal abnormalities.
