Is it true that rolling tobacco is "healthier" than tailor made cigarettes? Why?


Question:


Answers:
Yes it is healthier for two reasons;

1.Cigarettes contain a complex cocktail of chemicals, many of which are toxic, chemicals are added in order to make the cigarettes burn more effectively. Things like acetaldehyde and pyridine are added to enhance the effect of the nicotine on the brain, additives are added to improve flavour such as cocoa which when burned produces bromine gas that dilates the airways of the lung, there are other lovely chemicals such as formaldehyde and benzene, which themselves are known carcinogens, even arsenic is added.

2.Rolled cigarettes tend to be smaller, not as tightly packed and do not contain as much tobacco so when smoking cigarettes that are rolled a person is smoking a lot less than what they would be in a cigarette from a packet or a box that they would buy at a store.

Of course both are bad for you, you aren't an idiot and neither are smokers, but if someone is going to smoke as long as they use filters on cigarettes they roll themselves it is healthier to smoke ones you roll yourself – the smoking is just as dangerous, but you significantly cut down on the number of harmful chemicals you take into your body.
