Tobacco

The toxic chemicals in tobacco signal the heart to beat faster and harder causing blood vessels to constrict and forcing blood to travel through a narrower space. Tobacco smoke contributes to heart disease, as much as cancer, and leaves the body vulnerable to respiratory diseases like emphysema.

If you are currently using tobacco products and would like help quitting the staff of the Counseling Center and Student Health Services are here for you.
