Alcohol causes blood vessels to widen, pulling heat away from your core—so you actually lose heat faster. It also suppresses shivering, your body’s natural defense against the cold.

Ci******es contain thousands of chemicals—over 7,000 have been identified—many of which are toxic, and at least 70 are known to cause cancer. 🚭

When a cigarette burns, these chemicals are inhaled deep into the lungs and enter the bloodstream, affecting nearly every organ in the body. There is no safe level of exposure to cigarette smoke. 🚬
