How does caffeine affect vital signs?

Answer 1

Caffeine is a mild stimulant. It causes an increase in heart rate and blood pressure. In people with the medical condition of hypertension (high blood pressure) it can raise the blood pressure too high. Other physical signs of a stimulant like caffeine can be muscle tremors, sweating, restlessness, insomnia, and "jitters".

Answer 2

It depends on how much caffeine you are talking about. Small doses will obviously increase ones head rate, but not by much. Much larger doses, for example 5-6 coffees a day, will increase the heart rate a lot more.

for who they are smoker to quit smoking before injury cancer .

there is a lot of programs that help with that

"A smoker costs a private employer . . . an extra $5,816 a year compared with a nonsmoker," says a New York Times report. According to data collected by researchers at Ohio State University, the estimated average additional cost resulted from smoking breaks, higher health-care expenses, and absenteeism. Another factor was lost productivity, likely caused by the withdrawal effects of nicotine addiction.

SMOKING is not for those who want to live a long and happy life. The probability that a long-term smoker will eventually be killed by tobacco is 1 in 2. The director-general of the World Health Organization (WHO) stated: "A cigarette is . . . a cleverly crafted product that delivers just the right amount of nicotine to keep its user addicted for life before killing the person."

One reason, then, to quit smoking is that smoking tobacco endangers health and life. Smoking has been linked to more than 25 life-threatening diseases. It is, for example, a major contributor to heart attack, stroke, chronic bronchitis, emphysema, and various cancers, especially lung cancer.

Of course, a person may smoke for years before being stricken with one of these diseases. Meanwhile, smoking does not make a person more appealing to others. Advertising portrays smokers as glamorous and healthy. The reality is different. Smoking makes the breath stink and stains teeth and fingers a yellowish-brown. In men it contributes to impotence. It causes smoker's cough and shortness of breath. Smokers are also more likely to experience premature facial wrinkling and other skin problems. see Awake on jw.org
