Chemicals in tobacco smoke increase the chance of heart problems and cardiovascular diseases.

Smoking causes atherosclerosis, which is when plaque builds up in the blood and sticks to the artery walls. This makes them narrower, reducing blood flow and increasing the risk of blood clots.

Smoking also damages the blood vessels, making them thicker and narrower. This makes it harder for blood to flow, and also increases blood pressure and heart rate.

Smoking has links with the following cardiovascular conditions:

coronary heart disease, one of the leading causes of deathTrusted Source in the U.S
a heart attack, as smoking doubles the risk of heart attack
blockages that reduce blood flow to the skin and legs
stroke due to blood clots or burst blood vessels in the brain
