INTRODUCTION
• Tobacco has been variously hailed as a gift for
the gods, a miraculous cure-all for life’s physical
ills, a solace to the lonely soldier or sailor, a filthy
habit, a corrupting addiction, and the greatest
disease-producing product known to man. This
diversity of opinion has continued unchanged for
centuries.

premature deaths each year, yet one-fourth to
one-third of the population of adult continue to
smoke.

grown in warm climates. After it is picked.
It is dried, ground up, and used in

circumstances, mechanisms, and factors of
tobacco consumption on human health.

primarily on tobacco smoking which has
been studied more extensively than any
other form of consumption.
EFFECT OF SMOKING ON
HEALTH OF STUDENTS
Majority of life long
smokers begin smoking
habits before the age
of 24, which makes the
college years a crucial
time in the study of
cigarette consumption.
OBJECTIVES OF STUDY

• To study the prevalence of tobacco


consumption amount respondents.
• To access the anthropometric & dietary
assessment of the respondents.
• To access the lifestyle pattern of the
respondents.
REVIEW OF LITERATURE

• In the 1930s German scientists showed


that cigarette smoking caused lung
cancer. In1938 a study by a Johns
Hopkins University scientist suggested a
strongly negative correlation between
smoking and lifespan.
JP Beets (november1991) studied the
interrelationships between adolescence, smoking,
and nutrition and health. He searched that most
smokers become nicotine-dependent as
adolescents, which places them at risk for chronic
diseases associated with continuous oxidative
damage. Additionally, nicotine has antidepressant
and hypermetabolic effects, which may be of
particular importance during adolescence because
nicotine use leads to increased dependence on
tobacco, contributes to difficulty in smoking
cessation, and promotes weight gain following
smoking cessation.
