Dear lybrateuser, 
- Smoking has bad effect on the whole body as it leads to the deposit of various harmful chemicals present in a cigarette in the lungs & blood vessels of most of the important organs leading to their malfunction
- it is better to stop altogether as it increases from one to more per day & can make the person dependent on it.
