When people smoke, the nicotine goes right into the blood and makes people feel relaxed.

Some people, for example, enjoy a cigarette after dinner.Many people enjoy smoking because it gives you something to do with your hands.Many people also like the taste of tar in cigarettes. However, it’s the tar that causes cancer.
