What Tobacco does to the Brain

  • When a person smokes the nicotine in tobacco products are

absorbed into the blood stream.

  • Once in the blood stream, the brain allows the adrenaline glands

to spark.

  • The brain releases a hormone called epinephrine.
  • Epinephrine causes increased blood pressure, heart rate,

breathing, and over stimulates the nervous system.
