Low tar and nicotine
D o cigarettes with low levels
of ta r and nicotine make any
difference? 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.
They
have some tim ely
suggestions.
