Definition or Description:
Secondhand smoke (SHS) is also
called environmental tobacco
smoke (ETS). It’s a mixture of 2
forms of smoke that come from
burning tobacco: Mainstream
smoke: The smoke exhaled by a
smoker.
Side-stream smoke: Smoke from
the lighted end of a cigarette, pipe,
or cigar, or tobacco burning in a
hookah. This type of smoke has
higher concentrations of cancercausing agents (carcinogens) and is
more toxic than mainstream smoke.
It also has smaller particles than
mainstream smoke. These smaller
particles make their way into the
lungs and the body’s cells more
easily.
Young children are most affected by
SHS and least able to avoid it. Most
of their exposure to SHS comes
from adults smoking at home.
