The proof is not yet in. But recent evidence p r e sented b yD r.E rnestL.W yn der, president of the American Health Foundation, suggests that low levels of ta r— the sub stance most associated with lung cancer— may slightly re duce a sm oker's risk of de veloping that disease. But the slightly reduced ris k is ap parent only in smokers who have used filtered cigarettes with low levels of tar fo r at least 13 years The research was published in a September issue of the Journal of the American Medi cal Association. Experiments with smoking dogs who developed lung cancer and emphysema show sim ila r effects. Cigarettes with filte r tips that reduce the tar content caused less extensive lung damage than nonfilered cig a - rettes. Nicotine, however, is the compound most smokers get hooked on. Nicotine constricts the small arte ries, cuts down the flow of blood through the body, tr iggers a discharge of sugar from the liv e r into the bloodstream. Researchers also suspect that the hormonal upset in the blood caused by nicotine may be detrim ental to normal functioning. Lower doses of nicotine pro bably cause lessdistress to the body. But people hooked on nico tine tend to smoke more ciga rettes when they switch to ones with low levels of nicotine. So they wipe out any benefits. Tars and nicotine, however ar e only two of the dangerous in gredients in cigarette smoke. Carbon monoxide reduces the oxygen-car tying capacity of the blood. Chemical sea I led phenols fir s t stop and then destroy the small hairlike mechanisms, c ilia , that keep the lungs clean and ward off infection. I here are no safe cigarettes- regardless of the levels ofta rs and nicotine. To find out more about ways to quit smoking, con tact your local tuberculosis and respiratory disease association.
