LIGHTING UP OR CHEWING TOBACCO
Why It's Not So Cool: Anything that causes you to spit, hack, or show yellowing teeth in public isn't going to help your image.
The Health Risk: You're kidding, right? Well, experts say that, in addition to the whole cancer thing, tobacco can damage and even kill your sperm. "The culprit is nicotine," explains Ashok Argarwal. "Smoking excessively can result in a large number of white blood cells in semen. They are known to produce free radicals, which can result in damage to the sperm membranes and cell molecules."
