A new report by the US Surgeon General makes clear that second-hand smoke is more than a nuisance. When inhaled by adult nonsmokers, it increases their risk of heart disease by 25 to 30 percent and lung cancer by 20 to 30 percent. Children and infants are at risk, because second-hand smoke is a known cause of sudden infant death syndrome, respiratory problems, ear infections, and asthma.
Tolerating second-hand smoke should no longer be an option, unless you are willing to jepoardize your health and that of your children.
