Tobacco usage

Tobacco usage typically involves inhaling or chewing products made from the leaves of the tobacco plant, most commonly through smoking cigarettes, cigars, or using smokeless forms like chewing tobacco. Nicotine, the addictive substance in tobacco, stimulates the brain's pleasure centers, leading to dependence. While some use tobacco for relaxation or social reasons, its consumption is linked to serious health risks, including lung cancer, heart disease, and respiratory problems. Despite awareness of these dangers, tobacco addiction remains widespread globally, driven by habit, social factors, and the highly addictive nature of nicotine.
