poison in cigarette smoke

[glenis]

the latest ads to help people stop smoking concentrates on all the poisons in the smoke arsenic,benzine etc etc,why are they there in the first place???

[LazyGun]

I always understood that the majority of said chemicals were there mostly from the additives to the cigarette papers and tobacco that control the eveness of the burn etc.

They are always there. they are just making a big thing about it as there isnt much news about at the min. i hear they are gonna start putting ads on about farting. If you fart in your house about 5 times in an hour, it can heat the room up by approx. 1 degrees...

It's as lazygun say's glenis. The additives are more dangerous than the tobacco. Im glad I managed to give up the fags, It's 20 years come new year since I gave up,best thing I ever done!

you'll prob find that your being poisoned far more acutely by the modern day living,carbon monoxide contaminates your brain with nasties,i think it's more a combination of poisons.enjoy your life as you know it.
