Carcinogens in Cigarettes, Chewing Tobacco, and E Smokes
Posted on | May 6, 2010 | No Comments
A carcinogen is a cancer causing agent. There are carcinogens in cigarettes, chewing tobacco and E Smokes. Regular cigarettes have eighty one chemicals, 4000 chemicals with every smoke ring. For some these are frightening stats but the belief that it cannot happen to me seems to prevail.
Cigarettes are filled with Arsenic, Ammonia, Butane, Carbon dioxide and a number of other toxins. Most people would not willingly place such chemicals into their bodies. But decorate hazardous waste in a pretty package, have a pretty person validate it and using it becomes okay.
Chewing tobacco has been found to be a cause of health problems but is not considered as toxic as cigarettes. Chemicals found in chewing tobacco are Cyanide, Formaldehyde and lead. If anyone gave a person these chemicals to ingest they would be charged with a crime but people smoke and chew them all day, every day and expose others to the same chemicals and it is socially acceptable.
An Electronic cigarette is a device that allows a smoker to inhale nicotine without the added carcinogens. The FDA hasn’t either approved nor banned these devices but it appears these devices allow the inhalation of nicotine without the extra carcingoens.
The more information known about smoking, the more public places are becoming smoke free zones. Second hand smoke has been found to be as damaging as smoking direct. The dangers of smoking, chewing tobacco or smoking an E-cigarette have been shouted from the roof top. Many people are listening but not enough. The dangers of tobacco use are real.
At the moment it would seem smoking cigarettes is the fastest way to create serious damage from tobacco and chewing the product seems to be running not far behind. Dipping tobacco and inhaling E Smokes has a close following. All of these products have chemicals that a lot of people are trying to avoid having in their homes, yet, they place them in their bodies.
