Substance Abuse and Addiction

Scientific evidence demonstrates that tobacco use is the leading preventable cause of death and illness in our nation. Tobacco use (cigarettes, cigars, snuff, chewing tobacco, and other tobacco products) causes more than 400,000 deaths each year - one out of every five deaths in the United States. The number of deaths caused by tobacco use is greater than the combined number of deaths due to AIDS, alcohol, automobile accidents, murders, suicides, drugs and fires.
Tobacco is a substance of abuse. Nicotine, a key ingredient in tobacco products, is an addictive drug. Children and adolescents are of particular concern due to increased risk for addiction and passive exposure.
Smoking is a known cause of cancer, heart disease, stroke and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease. Special dangers exist for specific subpopulations of smokers such as pregnant women who suffer higher rates of spontaneous abortions, stillbirths, premature births, low birth weights and complications of pregnancy from direct use as well as passive exposure.
Supported by extensive scientific and epidemiologic evidence, the American Academy of Family Physicians opposes smoking and the use of tobacco and has accepted the U.S. Surgeon General's challenge to work toward the goal of a tobacco-free society by the year 2000.

The Effects of Substance Abuse on the Development of Children: Educational Implications Author: Colleen Meade Originally Posted At: http://www.teach-nology.com/tutorials/teaching/abuse/ Another great tutorial from TeAch-nology.com! The Web Portal For Educators! ( http://www.teach-nology.com **What's All the Hype?** The effect of substance abuse on growing fetuses has been avidly researched in recent years. The birth of the Thalidomide babies in the early 1960 awakened the world to the fact that drugs ingested by the mother can severely impact the development of the growing baby. Thalidomide was widely prescribed to relieve morning sickness in pregnant women. It was the use of Thalidomide that affected "nearly 12,000 infants in 46 countries" and caused defective "limbs, eyes, ears, genitals, and internal organs" (Bethune, 2001). The birth of these children soon became known as "history's greatest medical disaster" (Bethune, 2001). This paper seeks to describe the possible effects of substance abuse in gestation, the environmental effects from typical substance-abusive households, and the implications in the field of education. It also seeks to outline curricular adaptations, which can be made to appropriately educate children affected by these issues.

    Grade Level:
    Subjects: Language Arts, Social Studies, Health
    Flu and influenza are common illnesses experienced by many. Even so, influenza pandemics can change a culture and make an imprint on history. Often the origin of influenza pandemics takes months, and sometimes years, to determine. Sometimes the cause is never identified. Students can explore how some of the world's most famous pandemic outbreaks such as the 1918 influenza outbreak in the United States, the Hong Kong flu, the Asian Flu of 1957, the 1976 Swine Flu, and the 1997 Avian Flu have changed history. Compare how each country dealt with the outbreak, how the outbreak affected the populations, and the various modes of treatment and causes of disease. After compiling their research, students may write a newspaper article reporting on a famous epidemic through the eyes of someone who may have lived through the time of crisis. Students can also write a position paper as an expert preparing for a panel discussion on the prevention of future epidemic outbreaks. Online Resources

    SCHOOLED IN CLEAN AIR: A PRACTICAL GUIDE TO DEVELOPING AND IMPLEMENTING A SMOKING POLICY IN SCHOOLS Understanding the Circumstances
    Over recent years concerns about the harmful effects of cigarette smoke have lead to a number of key changes in certain areas of life. Restrictions on smoking in cinemas and restaurants, on public transport, in various work settings and in a variety of other places have become an accepted norm. Primarily this is because passive smoking is known to be dangerous, and also because tobacco smoke is regarded as unpleasant by many, and the act itself not a little anti-social. However, schools have an added and extremely complex consideration to examine. Namely the positive and negative influences children and young people face when confronted by smoking. Policies established by schools, therefore, are not only concerned with promoting the health and safety of pupils, staff and visitors by ensuring the air is free of tobacco smoke; but are also geared toward developing the most suitable environment in which young people are to learn. In the past, this has tended to mean a total ban on smoking in schools to ensure complete dissociation by the teaching body from the possibility of passing on any messages that may encourage our young to smoke. This is undoubtedly a vast improvement from a time when masters and mistresses openly smoked in the presence of children and insisted "do as I say, not as I do"; but pretending the habit does not exist by erecting unreal situations may be slightly patronising our future adults.

    Law and Morality Tobacco And Our Youth - Elizabeth "Nancy" Odasso, Saddleback High School Tobacco use leads to the death of more than four hundred thousand individuals each year in America. Life expectancy, which was 72.5 for males and 79.3 for females in the year 1995, was shortened by diseases such as cancer, pulmonary, heart and cerebrovascular disease. These diseases can be directly associated with cigarette smoking. An estimated 4.5 million children and adolescents are now smoking. Nadelmann feels,
    the widespread use of tobacco stems not just from its powerful addictive qualities but from the fact that its psychoactive effects are sufficiently subtle that smoking does not interfere with most other human activities.
    According to the Chronic Disease Preservation (CDC) the average age at which children try cigarettes is 11.6 years with children as young as eight years of age planning to or already having experimented with smoking. The National Household Surveys on Drug Abuse estimates that six thousand or more young people try their first cigarette daily, and three thousand become daily smokers each day. A student who is not a smoker by age 18 is unlikely to start as an adult. It seems that smokers in their teen years regret their decision to smoke and 66% say they want to quit, but it is too hard.

    OBJECTIVE C - Promote policies and programs aimed at reducing tobacco use.
    Tobacco's Link to Cancer
    Tobacco use is the leading preventable cause of premature disease and death in the United States as well as in Texas. Nationally, tobacco use is related to more than 400,000 deaths each year. While it has been widely known for several decades that smoking causes lung cancer, in 1996 M.D. Anderson Cancer Center researchers established the causation link between a carcinogen found in cigarette smoke and a genetic mutation that can lead to cancer. Tobacco use also has a strong association with many cancers, including cancers of the larynx, esophagus, bladder, kidney, pancreas, and cervix. Spit tobacco, such as chewing tobacco and snuff, causes various forms of oral cancer.
    The effect that tobacco use has on the cancer mortality rate is staggering. Smoking is responsible for about 87 percent of lung cancer deaths each year. In 1997, approximately 9,400 people in Texas and approximately 140,000 people nationwide died from lung cancer as a result of smoking About one-third of all cancer deaths can be attributed to tobacco use

    EXERCISE IS MEDICINE: HEALTH BENEFITS OF REGULAR PHYSICAL ACTIVITY
    JEFF M. BURNHAM, MD
    Sedentary lifestyle has officially been recognized as a major risk factor for cardiovascular disease. In addition, exercise can be beneficial in detecting, preventing, and managing prevalent disease states such as hyperlipidemia, hypertension, obesity, nicotine addiction, diabetes mellitus, affective disorders, cancer, osteoporosis, and age-related declines in muscular strength. Recent findings are discussed and recommendations for appropriate exercise prescriptions are offered.
    One of the basic tenets of the discipline of sports medicine is that "exercise is medicine" or, as some call it, the "motion potion". Rapidly accumulating evidence from scientific studies validates the contention that physical activity can be manipulated to detect, prevent, and manage a wide array of diverse risk factors and disease states. Leisure-time physical activity has been found to be associated with reduced all-cause mortality, aside from genetic and familial factors.1
    DIAGNOSTIC EXERCISE
    CARDIOVASCULAR RISK FACTORS
    A sedentary lifestyle has been documented to be among the strongest risk factors for death.3 The Surgeon General's Report on Physical Activity and Health (1996) suggests that about 25% of American adults (approximately 45 million) are totally sedentary and that the number of deaths caused by this pervasive risk factor is approximately 250,000 per year.4 It is further calculated that inactivity is responsible for about one-third of all coronary heart disease, colon cancer, and diabetes deaths each year. Cardiovascular disease is the major cause of death and disability in our society with nearly one million dying of heart disease and stroke this year, costing some 140 billion in healthcare dollars.5
