How does tobacco affect the brain?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Increased risks: Not only does smoking increase risk of heart disease and COPD in lungs, plus cancer, but we do find increased risk of stroke and multiple sclerosis to name a few. Also, if lung cancer occurs, it can metastasize to brain. So, long and short, quit smoking!
