The worst part about these YouQA.com is when people who have no idea what they are talking about, answer questions in which they have no knowledge.
Yes cigars can be harmful, meaning you are subject to cancer of the mouth, however you do not inhale cigars and they are very unlikely to become addictive. Cigars are a pleasure to smoke so you may become "addicted" to the pleasure of smoking cigars. You rarely absorb enough tobacco from smoking a cigar to make it "addictive". I have been smoking cigars for quite some time now and they are in no way as dangerous as many people make them out to be. Are there risks, absolutely, but no more risky than driving your car on a busy interstate, or getting on a plane to go anywhere, so to answer your question, there is less risk involved in smoking cigars than there is in smoking cigarettes. The reason for this is that you do not inhale cigars, and the quality of cigar tobacco is much greater than that of a cigarette, which means less toxins entering your body.
Smoking anything is not "safe", but just like anything in moderation, you may enjoy lifes little pleasures. Smoking cigars is no more harmful to your body than enjoying a beer a day, or a glass of wine. Have a fine cigar and tell those kids who know nothing about this subject to shut their mouths and go back to asking questions about their favorite crappy band on the radio or which famous for nothing celebrity would be a better drug addicted mother.
cigars are stronger, more addictive and in general worse than cigarettes..no smoking is good for you..good luck
Yeah, thiey are like cigarettes, but i think they do more damage...
yes, cigars can give you oral and lung cancer as well as the many other diseases cigarettes can give you
Even though one cigar can have 5 to 17 grams of tobacco (a cigarette has only one), cigarettes are more harmful than cigars...
This is because most of the smoke from cigars is not inhaled
Most people don't actually inhale much cigar smoke, so the lung cancer risk is slightly less, however the mouth, lip and throat cancer rates are higher than with cigarettes. It is just as addictive as cigarette smoking, if not more so, because they are stronger. And of course, all tobacco products can cause heart disease, premature aging, discoloration of the fingernails and whites of the eyes and lips, wrinkles, impotence in men, emphysema, etc, etc...
