Kreteks (pronounced kree-techs) are cigarettes imported from Indonesia that contain tobacco, cloves and other additives. Kreteks are sometimes called “clove cigarettes.” Kreteks deliver more nicotine, carbon monoxide and tar than conventional cigarettes. Although no studies on the long- term health effects of kreteks have been conducted in the United States, research in Indonesia shows that regular kretek smokers have 13 to 20 times the risk for abnormal lung function compared with nonsmokers.

Bidis (bee-dees) are small, thin hand- rolled cigarettes imported primarily from India and other Southeast Asian countries. 6 • Siletz News • These cigarettes can be flavored (e.g., chocolate, cherry and mango) or unfla- vored. They have higher concentrations of nicotine, tar and carbon monoxide than conventional cigarettes sold in the United States. No research studies on the health effects of bidis have been conducted in the United States. However, research studies from India indicate that bidi smoking increases the risk for cancers of the mouth, lung, stomach and esophagus. These studies also show that bidi smoking is associated with a high risk for coronary heart disease and heart attack and an even higher risk for chronic bronchitis.

People who smoke cigars, particu- larly those who inhale, are at increased risk for respiratory problems, including emphysema and chronic bronchitis. Cigar smoking also increases the risk of death from several types of cancer, including cancers of the lung, lip, tongue, mouth, throat, esophagus (the tube connecting the mouth to the stomach) and larynx (voice box). As with cigarettes, people exposed to secondhand smoke from cigars also are at risk for adverse health effects. Cigar smoke generally contains the same January 2014 chemicals found in cigarette smoke, but in higher concentrations. Resources Title: Cigars.

Like cigarettes and smokeless tobacco, cigars contain nicotine, an addictive drug found naturally in tobacco. If a cigar smoker inhales, the nicotine is absorbed rapidly in the lungs. If a cigar smoker does not inhale, the nicotine is absorbed more slowly through the mucous membranes in the mouth. Unlike cigarettes and smokeless tobacco products, cigars typically do not have additives included as flavoring agents. However, in addition to nicotine, cigars contain compounds found in all processed tobacco. Some of these com- pounds are found in the green tobacco leaf; others are formed when the tobacco is cured, fermented or smoked. For exam- ple, cigar tobacco has a high concentration of nitrogen compounds. During fermenta- tion and smoking, these compounds give off several tobacco-specific nitrosamines (TSNAs), which are potent cancer- causing agents. In fact, TSNA levels found in cigar smoke are much higher than those found in cigarette smoke. Additionally, smoke from a cigar contains many of the same toxins found in environmental tobacco smoke (sec- ondhand smoke) from cigarettes. These elements include ammonia, carbon mon- oxide, benzene and hydrogen cyanide. Resources Title: Cigars (fact sheet).

Nicotine is an addictive drug found naturally in tobacco. Other chemicals in tobacco plants may come from fertil- izers or insecticides used in the growing process or from contaminants in air, soil or water. Some chemicals are added when tobacco is cured; others are added in the manufacturing process.
