Artikel Bahaya Merokok Bagi Kesehatan Manusia

 

Ya, bagi sebagian orang, merokok adalah kepuasan, tapi ada juga yang bilang merokok saja sudah terasa kenyang di saat perut mulai lapar. Dan ada pula yang bilang jika tidak merokok semangat kerja hilang. Perilaku Hidup Bersih dan Sehat, yang menjadi kebutuhan dasar derajat kesehatan masyarakat, salah satu aspeknya adalah “tidak ada anggota keluarga yang merokok“. Sedangkan PHBS harus menjadi kewajiban saya dan para kader kesehatan untuk mensosialisasikannya.

Setiap kali menghirup asap rokok, entah sengaja atau tidak, berarti juga mengisap lebih dari 4.000 macam racun! Karena itulah, merokok sama dengan memasukkan racun-racun tadi ke dalam rongga mulut dan tentunya paru-paru. Merokok mengganggu kesehatan, kenyataan ini tidak dapat kita pungkiri. Banyak penyakit telah terbukti menjadi akibat buruk merokok, baik secara langsung maupun tidak langsung. Kebiasaan merokok bukan saja merugikan si perokok, tetapi juga bagi orang di sekitarnya.

Saat ini jumlah perokok, terutama perokok remaja terus bertambah, khususnya di negara-negara berkembang. Keadaan ini merupakan tantangan berat bagi upaya peningkatan derajat kesehatan masyarakat. Bahkan organisasi kesehatan sedunia (WHO) telah memberikan peringatan bahwa dalam dekade 2020-2030 tembakau akan membunuh 10 juta orang per tahun, 70% di antaranya terjadi di negara-negara berkembang termasuk Indonesia.

Melalui resolusi tahun 1983, Organisasi Kesehatan Dunia (WHO) telah menetapkan tanggal 31 Mei sebagai Hari Bebas Tembakau Sedunia setiap tahun.

Bahaya merokok terhadap kesehatan tubuh telah diteliti dan dibuktikan oleh banyak orang. Efek-efek yang merugikan akibat merokok pun sudah diketahui dengan jelas. Banyak penelitian membuktikan bahwa kebiasaan merokok meningkatkan risiko timbulnya berbagai penyakit. Seperti penyakit jantung dan gangguan pembuluh darah, kanker paru-paru, kanker rongga mulut, kanker laring, kanker osefagus, bronkhitis, tekanan darah tinggi, impotensi, serta gangguan kehamilan dan cacat pada janin.

Penelitian terbaru juga menunjukkan adanya bahaya dari secondhand-smoke, yaitu asap rokok yang terhirup oleh orang-orang bukan perokok karena berada di sekitar perokok, atau biasa disebut juga dengan perokok pasif.
