You might think that just one cigarette 'can't hurt'. But it could in fact cost a smoker almost 14 minutes of their life, according to new calculations. A new website has worked out how much time a smoker, alcoholic or a drug addict will lose, each time they use. For example, regularly smoking 20 cigarettes a day cuts ten years off a person's life, the website claims. Alcoholics cut their lives short by 23 years, while chronic cocaine users lose 34 years, it adds。
你可能會想只吸一根煙不會危害身體。但實際上根據(jù)最新測算,對吸煙者而言吸一根煙可能要減少14分鐘的壽命。有一個網(wǎng)站已經(jīng)測算出一名抽煙,喝酒或吸毒的人會因每次的壞習慣少活多長時間。例如,該網(wǎng)站宣稱如果通常每天吸20根煙,會減壽十年。酒鬼則會減少23的壽命,而慢性可卡因食用者最多竟少活34年,該網(wǎng)站補充道。
How much time does a lifelong addict loose each time they use?
Cigarettes Cocaine Alcohol Meth Methdone Heroin
13.8 minutes 5.1 hours 6.6 hours 11.1 hours 12.6 hours 22.8 hours
The total time lost for each individual use is heavily dependent on how many times the average daily dose is segmented. For example, the daily dose of cocaine is segmented by 6.6 (lines) , while the daily dose of alcohol is segmented by 2.14 (drinks)。
終身吸煙者每次吸煙要消耗多長壽命?
煙 可卡因 酒精 甲安菲他明 美沙酮 海洛因
13.8分鐘 5.1小時 6 .6小時 11.1小時 12.6小時 22.8小時
每人消耗的壽命很大程度要看平均每天的吸食次數(shù)。例如,每天吸食可卡因6.6(條),或每日酒精攝入量為2.14(杯)。
How the numbers were calculated
Average Lifetime - Average age of death = Number of years lost
Number of years lost × 365.242 × 24 = Number of hours lost
Average use per day × Number of days using = Lifetime number of doses
Number of hours lost / Lifetime number of doses = Time lost per dose in hours
Number of days using = Average of death -Average age of first regular use × 365.242
平均壽命-平均死亡年齡=減少的壽命
減少的壽命年數(shù) × 365.242 × 24 = 減少的小時數(shù)
平均每天攝入量 × 食用天數(shù) = 一生攝入總量
減少的小時數(shù)量 / 一生攝入總量 = 每次攝入后減少的壽命
攝入天數(shù) = 平均死亡年齡 - 首次常規(guī)攝入者的平均年齡 × 365.242
Treatment4addiction.com, a website providing information people with drug and alcohol addictions, has calculated how many years an addiction to cigarettes, alcohol, cocaine, methamphetamine, methadone and heroine are cutting from their lives by continued use. Mephamphetamine addicts live to an average age of just 38, while heroin addicts don't fare much better, dying at on average at just 38 years old. The website's creators have also worked out how many minutes or hours each single dose will cost an addict。
一個網(wǎng)址為Treatment4addiction.com的網(wǎng)站是一家向沉迷于毒品和酒精的人提供信息的網(wǎng)站。該網(wǎng)站已經(jīng)測算了沉迷于香煙、酒精、可卡因、甲基苯丙胺、美沙酮或海洛因的人在持續(xù)吸食的情況下會減少多少壽命。吸食甲基苯丙胺的人平均壽命僅為38歲。該網(wǎng)站創(chuàng)始人已經(jīng)算出各類癮君子每次會消耗多少分鐘或小時的壽命。
One line of cocaine takes a chronic user five minutes closer to death, while a single methadone pill costs a user almost 13 hours. Treatment4Addiction.com is a ‘resource for people looking for help and support in regards to drug and alcohol addiction’, its developers said. All the data came from official sources including the U.S Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration and the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration. Jake Tri, project manager for the website said it was formed after the developers heard comments about how much time smoking a cigarette costs a person, and wanted to find out the exact figure。
每條可卡因可使慢性攝入者少活5分鐘,而每片甲基苯丙胺則使其食用者少活13個小時。“該網(wǎng)站是人們尋求幫助的一大資源并得到了吸食毒品和嗜酒人員的支持,”該網(wǎng)站的開發(fā)人員說道。網(wǎng)站上的全部數(shù)據(jù)是官方信息,包括美國疾病防控中心、物質(zhì)濫用和精神健康服務管理局、國家公路交通安全管理局。該網(wǎng)站項目經(jīng)理杰克•特里說當開發(fā)人員聽到人們對吸一根煙可消耗多少壽命的看法后,他們建立了這一網(wǎng)站并想找到與此相關(guān)的其他數(shù)據(jù)。
How much time does a lifelong addict lose when using the average daily dose?
Cigarette: 12 hours= 4.6 hours
Alcohol: 12 hours 12 hours = 14.1 hours
Cocaine: 24 hours 12 hours = 33.7 hours
Methdone: 24 hours 24 hours 12 hours = 50.4 hours
Methamphetamine: 24 hours 24 hours 12 hours = 58.8 hours
Heroin: 24 hours 24 hours 12 hours 12 hours = 68.4 hours
These estimates are for chronic users where negative effects would be cumulative over time。
平均日攝入量會使終身癮君子少活多長時間?
香煙:4.6小時 酒精:14.1小時 可卡因:33.7小時 美沙酮:50.4小時 甲基苯丙胺:58.8小時
海洛因:68.4小時
這些數(shù)據(jù)主要針對長期服用人員,其消極影響是長期積累下來的。
He told MailOnline: 'The initial inspiration for this project was from hearing a statement many of us have come across in passing... Something like "Smoking one cigarette takes away 10 minutes of your life". 'We then wondered about other drugs and applied the same methodology using statistics from several reputable sources. They checked their methodology against statistics from the University of Bristol, and found they were very close, with differences attributed to the fact they were using U.S. government sources rather than U.K. statistics。
他對每日郵報說:“開始做這一項目的動機是偶然碰見了一些人聽到了他們的觀點.。.像是‘每吸一根煙要少活10分鐘,’聽了這樣的話我們好奇其他藥品情況如何,于是就用了同樣的方法從幾個不同的權(quán)威機構(gòu)獲取數(shù)據(jù)。”通過與布里斯托爾大學的數(shù)據(jù)做對比他們發(fā)現(xiàn)他們的測算結(jié)果與其十分接近,而存在差異是因為他們的數(shù)據(jù)來自美國政府而非英國政府。
He added that the methodology gives an estimated number rather than a definite number. He said: 'There are far too many factors to give a 100% accurate assessment of how much time one loses after smoking a single cigarette or taking a single drink. 'However this methodology does provide a good estimate for those that are chronic users of a certain substance, as it is based on average usage and life expectancy data.'
他還補充說這種方法只是一種估算,不能給出絕對準確的數(shù)字。他說:“雖然有很多因素能幫助我們得出百分百正確的數(shù)據(jù),以反映在吸完一根煙或喝完一杯酒后的壽命折損情況,但對那些長期服用一種物質(zhì)的人來說這種測算方法更加合理,因為它是基于平均用量和平均壽命來定的。
