We know smoking is bad for us, we’ve been hearing it for decades at this point. Unfortunately it wasn’t always this way. The use of cigarettes and smoking in general has changed dramatically within the last several decades and many still struggle with the addiction or with its chronic effects. In this episode, Dr. Baldassarri dives into smoking, cigarettes, addiction, and much more.
Dr. Baldassarri completed his residency in Internal Medicine from the Yale School of Medicine before completing a fellowship in pulmonary and critical care medicine also from Yale. He is also board certified in addiction/preventive medicine and currently serves as an assistant professor of medicine at the Yale School of Medicine. He has appeared on other podcasts and is well-published on topics relating to smoking, addiction, and sleep.
