Peryglon mwg ail-law
Beth yw peryglon mwg ail-law i iechyd?
Canfu adroddiad yn 1998 fod anadlu mwg ail-law (smygu goddefol) yn cynyddu risg y canlynol:
- Babanod: Pwysau geni isel a marwolaeth yn y crud
- Plant: Haint y glust ganol, asthma, broncitis, niwmonia
- Oedolion: Clefyd y galon, strôc, canser yr ysgyfaint, canser y trwyn
- Mae anadlu mwg ail-law am gyfnodau byr, hyd yn oed, yn effeithio ar iechyd. Er enghraifft, mae bod mewn ystafell fyglyd am 30 munud yn lleihau llif y gwaed i gyhyrau’ch calon.
Mae yna effaith ar bawb sy’n anadlu mwg ail-law...
…ac mae rhai pobl yn arbennig o agored i niwed, gan gynnwys:
- Pobl sy’n dioddef o angina
- Pobl sy’n dioddef o asthma (llawer ohonynt yn blant)
- Pobl sydd wedi dioddef o drawiad ar y galon neu strôc
- Menywod beichiog
- Plant

Smoking & Health
Smoking during pregnancy has been identified as a cause of cot death. The risk of cot death is approximately trebled in infants whose mothers smoke both during and after pregnancy. The more cigarettes smoked, the greater the risk.
Tobacco Industry quotes:
In 1973 a R.J. Reynolds executive was quoted as saying:
"It should be said that we are presently, and I believe unfairly, constrained from directly promoting cigarettes to the youth market. If our company is to survive and prosper, over the long term we must get our share of the youth market. - Thus we need new brands designed to be particularly attractive to the young smoker, while ideally at the same time appealing to all smokers. Perhaps these questions may be best approached by consideration of factors influencing pre-smokers to try smoking, learn to smoke, and become confirmed smokers."
