What are the physical effects of smoking one cigarette per day?Okay. I don't want a speech. I know smoking is bad for you. I just want the facts. What are the physical effects of ONE cigarette per day? Just the effects and facts, please. I already know that smoking is bad. I already know that if you start out with one per day the chances that you will smoke more will increase. I know it's not good for your body. But HOW? I want physical facts. Thanks.

One a day isn't really considered smoking. Try a pack and a half a day, then we'll talk.

Just an anecdote....
Worked In radiology for a long time & have seen the sad effects of smoking.
However there was a Radiation Oncologist who said If a person smoked one cigarette every day after dinner he saw no harm in it & he really hated smoking.
Trick is smoking only one
Sure he would not want to be quoted on that , but he played piano in a restaurant where he was part owner.( when smoking was allowed) & considered himself a "smoker by default".
Not an MD but the harmful effects are no mystery.
Loss of lung function, emphysema, cancer ...... just a few.

One cig is not going to do much to you. Joggers who run with heavy traffic every day is like smoking 10 cigs a day and they think THAT is healthy. Just enjoy your cigarette.

Just do a search for "smoking risk calculator" and type in the numbers. You'll find that the effects are minor for a young person in reasonably good health. The real risk is that you'll let it creep up on you and end up smoking more and more, so make sure you set a strict limit and stick to it.

I agree with ProudMomOf3. One cigarette per day is not really smoking. It won't do anything to you. Knock yourself out.
