Welcome to the 2004 Surgeon General’s Report: The Health Consequences of Smoking.

              
This presentation will help you understand that smoking damages nearly every organ in the human body. Use our animated models for a 360-degree view of where these effects occur.

To see how smoking can damage the body, compare our photos of diseased organs beside healthy ones.

Most importantly, we offer tips to stop smoking and information on the health benefits of quitting.

On behalf of the Surgeon General, we encourage you to share this information with others. We hope it makes a life-saving difference to you, your family, friends, and colleagues.
