To Begin with, I would like to inform you why I wanted to write about the effects of nicotine in the body. My father was a smoker, and he smoked for over 14 years and then he quit smoking when I was born. I only knew two years ago that my father is was a smoker and he told because he caught me smoking in my room. I have learned from him that smoking is bad, and one of the things that is most harmful to the body whilst smoking is Nicotine.
