Smoking which is known as the biggest plague of our age is one of the most important health problems in our country and in the world. Every second person who is a smoker dies due to a health problem caused by smoking. We lose 110 thousand people on account of an illness of smoking per year in our country. Cigarette is not only harmful for the smoker, but also people around him/her. Using cigarette and other tobacco products is an addiction and addiction is a disease.
