4 Overview of Tobacco Smoking and Diabetes Tobacco use is the single greatest cause of preventable disease and death in the United States. Tobacco use causes more deaths than AIDS, alcohol, motor vehicles fatalities, homicides, illegal drugs, and suicide combined. About 7.8% of the United States population (23.6 million) has diabetes (sugar in the blood). In 2007, diabetes was the sixth leading cause of death. Diabetes-related complications include heart disease, stroke, high blood pressure, blindness, kidney disease, nervous system disease (neuropathy), and amputations. African American adults are twice as likely as non-hispanic white adults to have diabetes. In addition, 26.1% of African American men and 18.5% of African American women smoke. People who smoke and have diabetes are: 1) more likely to get nerve damage and kidney disease 2) three times more likely than nonsmokers to die of cardiovascular disease 3) more likely to have elevated blood sugar levels, making it harder to control diabetes. This teacher s instructional guide contains useful, practical and fun activities that can be used to further educate students about the damaging effects of tobacco and diabetes. Learning Objectives After completing the activities, the students will be able to: Identify the negative effects that smoking has on diabetes. Identify new health vocabulary words. Identify resources to assist themselves and/or others in quitting smoking. Identify people within their social environment who either have diabetes or smoke. Demonstrate basic literacy skills by identifying key events and main characters in the story. Vocabulary: Vocabulary words are included to help students learn important health information while they are mastering basic literacy skills.

15 Information on Smoking, Diabetes, and Quitting Directions: Share the following basic information on smoking and diabetes with the class. Links and additional information can be found under the Additional Resources for Instructors section that you may use to setup your lesson plan. People who are diabetic are two to four times more likely to suffer a heart attack or stroke. If that person is a smoker, that risk is multiplied. People who have diabetes and are smokers are more likely to develop nerve damage and kidney disease. They are three times more likely than nonsmokers to die of cardiovascular disease. They are also more likely to have higher levels of blood sugar, which will make it harder to control their diabetes. Tips to Quit Smoking Keep busy doing things that make it hard to smoke, like working in the yard, washing dishes and being more active. Fight the urge to smoke by going to places where smoking isn't allowed and staying around people who don't smoke. Avoid situations that tempt you to smoke, like drinking coffee or alcohol. Find a substitute for smoking a cigarette. Try a sugarless hard candy or gum. Drink water. Remind yourself that you're likely to feel better if you stop smoking. Tell family members and friends that you need to quit smoking and need their support. If your husband, wife, son or daughter smokes, ask them to quit with you. Source: 13
