Smoking and alcoholism are addictions that have both a physical and psychological dependence. These addictions can negatively impact a person’s health, work and relationships. Addictions can be caused by neurological, social, and environmental factors, biochemical imbalances, diet, malabsorption of nutrients, or food allergies. Addictive substances eventually become a necessary ingredient of body chemistry and cause withdrawal when the substance is withheld. Alcohol can cause cirrhosis of the liver, short-term memory loss, blackouts. Smoking can contribute to cancers and respiratory diseases. Both addictions can weaken your immune system.
