Sticking to it for a long time can easily lead to some discomfort in the stomach and intestines, and it is also more likely to increase the risk of gastrointestinal diseases and cause gastrointestinal lesions.

On the other hand, near the time of sleep, the blood in our body will become more viscous, if you smoke cigarettes before going to bed, the harmful substances in the cigarette will be more easily absorbed into the blood to endanger cardiovascular and cerebrovascular health, and it is easier to suffer from blood clots.
Secondly, the harmful substances in the cigarette will also remain in the human mouth, if there is no brushing after smoking, the impurities in the cigarette will stay in the mouth for one night, which will damage the health of the gums.
