New Generation of Tobacco Products Threatens Efforts to Reduce Tobacco Use, Save Lives, Report Warns

An insidious new generation of tobacco products is threatening efforts to reduce tobacco use, warns a new report issued today by a coalition of public health organizations.

Responding to declining smoking rates and growing restrictions on smoking, tobacco manufacturers are finding novel ways to entice new users, especially children, and discourage quitting.

The report details key trends including:

- Flavored products: Cigarettes, smokeless tobacco and cigars have been introduced in an array of candy, fruit and alcohol flavors (including lime, coconut and pineapple, toffee, and mint. Flavorings mask the harshness of the products and make them appealing ...)

- New smokeless tobacco products have been marketed as ways to help smokers sustain their addiction in the growing number of places where they cannot smoke. In addition to traditional chewing and spit tobacco, smokeless tobacco now comes in teabag-like pouches and even in dissolvable, candy-like tablets.

- Targeted products and marketing: New products and marketing have been aimed at women, girls and other populations.

- Unproven health claims: A growing list of products have been marketed with unproven and misleading claims that they are less harmful than traditional cigarettes.

- Undisclosed product designs: The report also illustrates how tobacco manufacturers control nicotine delivery to maximize addiction, while using flavorings and other additives to make their products taste milder, easier to inhale and more attractive to children and first-time smokers. A few aspects of product design not disclosed to consumers include the use of:

- Ammonia to increase the speed and efficiency of nicotine absorption.

- Eugenol and menthol to numb the throat to minimize irritation from smoke.

- Glycerin and cocoa to enable deep lung exposure (cocoa produces carcinogens when burned).

- Sugars and chocolate to make smoke milder and make cigarettes more appealing, especially to children and first time smokers.

- Filter technology and ventilation holes that allows deep penetration of nicotine into the lungs of the smoker and increase the addictiveness of the product.

Tobacco use is the leading preventable cause of death.
