savramesh 37 Report post Posted February 25, 2010 Smoking linked to lower IQ Cigarette smokers have lower IQs a study shows according to an Israeli study. The study of 20,000 military recruits found young men who smoked a pack of cigarettes a day had IQ scores that were seven point five points lower than non-smokers. And the survey shows that the more a person smokes, the lower their IQ. Auckland University tobacco control expert Marewa Glover says it's proof the tobacco industry successfully targeted those with lower IQs by using devices such as cartoons and free samples.

savramesh 37 Report post Posted March 30, 2010 Alcohol linked to poor nutrition People who drink more are also likely to eat less fruit and consume more calories from a combination of alcoholic beverages and foods high in unhealthy fats and added sugars. Heavy drinking and dietary factors have independently been associated with cardiovascular disease, certain cancers, and other chronic health problems. To examine the relationship between alcoholic beverage consumption, nutrient intakes, and diet quality, researchers analysed data on 8,155 men and 7,715 women in USA, aged = 20 years who reported their past-year alcoholic beverage consumption and 24-hour dietary intake. Alcoholic beverage consumption was defined by drinking status (never, former, current drinker) and, among current drinkers, by drinking level (number of drinks per day, on average: men <1 to =5; women <1 to =3). Among men, there was no association between drinking status and dietary intake of energy as well as most nutrients. Among women, former and current (compared to never) drinkers had significantly higher intakes of energy and several nutrients, and current drinkers had significantly lower total healthy eating index scores (current drinkers 59; never drinkers 63). Among current drinkers of both genders, as drinking level increased, intakes of energy and several nutrients significantly increased, whereas total healthy eating index scores significantly decreased (from 56 to 41 in men, and from 60 to 52 in women). Higher alcohol consumption was associated with poor diet quality, but these findings raise questions about whether the combination of alcohol misuse and poor diet might interact to further increase health risks. This could be explained by the higher energy intake from alcohol as well as other differences in food choices. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
savramesh 37 Report post Posted March 31, 2010 Cigarette filters have pig's blood? Cigarette filters may have traces of pig's blood, an Australian professor has said, adding the devout may find this "very offensive". Simon Chapman, a professor at the University of Sydney, said a recent Dutch research had identified 185 industrial uses of a pig - including the use of haemoglobin in cigarette filters. "I think that there would be some particularly devout groups who would find the idea that there were pig products in cigarettes to be very offensive," Chapman was qouted as saying by Australian AAP news agency. "The Jewish community certainly takes these matters extremely seriously and the Islamic community certainly do as well, as (so) would many vegetarians. "It just puts into hard relief the problem that the tobacco industry is not required to declare the ingredients of cigarettes ... they say 'that's our business' and a trade secret." The research found pig haemoglobin was being used to make cigarette filters more effective in blocking harmful chemicals before it entered a smoker's lungs. The professor said that one cigarette brand sold in Greece was confirmed to be using pig haemoglobin in its processes, Chapman said. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
