World No Tobacco Day .
Tobacco use is neither liberating nor glamorous.” Women are being wooed to replace those users who will quit or die prematurely from tobacco- related diseases, Alwan said.
They are also more vulnerable to passive smoking.
Of the 4,30, 000 adult deaths caused by passive smoking every year across the world, 64 per cent are women.
According to the WHO, in half of the 151 countries surveyed for trends in tobacco use among young people,
there wasn't much difference between the number of men and women smokers.
According to the estimates of the latest National Family Health Survey, 57 per cent men and 10.8 per cent women consume tobacco in India.
Let Us pray for those who have difficulty to give up Tobacco,
so thst they may enjoy good health and Happy Family life.
