Are roll-ups less harmful than ordinary cigarettes?

Question:

Answers:
Yes.
Rollies are pure chopped tobacco leaf,
cigerettes have, for example 400 chemicals in them JUST to keep them lit! And in general they have 8000 chemicals more than rolling tobacco.
You can get filters for rollies.
Rollies are worse for your teeth though!

you aint got a filter taking some of the impurities away

The tobacco is more pure, but at the end of the day its still a cigarette!!

apparently so, the dont add all the preservatives to rolling tobacco like they do in taylor mades, pre made cigs contain more mg of aresnic too..now theres a scary thought..

All my roll ups have an added incentive..Surf's up man and it's gonna be good dude..

Hand rolling tobacco is more harmful than the tobacco used in tailor made cigarettes. However, roll-ups keep going out.

If you add a filter then it will be less harmful as it will lack some of the poisons (toxic metals, etc that are in commercial cigs) but without a filter than probably more dangerous.

Just quite smoking!

you are kidding yourself if you think this way there are just as many carcinogens in u roll tobbacco as there is in pre rolled. the only benefit you get is finger dexterity.
tobbacco is the only true carcinogen out there that we intentionally expose ourselves to meanng it not only cause cancer to form but it also makes it grow faster. try the patch.

no they are not they are more harmful cause you have no filter to filter out anything in the ciggarett at all....

I am no expert but I would say that there would be less noxious chemicals in roll ups i.e. to keep them lit like cigs.

But I would say that there will be more tar in roll ups and especially so if you do not use a filter tip.

Depends if you use a filter tip, otherwise you're inhaling all the c*** that would be filtered out by a normal ciggy

just death re-packaged.

I would yes if a filter was'nt used. More tar and nicotine would be inhaled.

No, they are all as harmful as each other, give it up, save yourself lots of dosh, and get healthier.

roll-ups contain more tar than ordinary cigarettes therefore they are more dangerous to smoke. also normal cigarettes have a filter but roll-ups dont which also makes roll-ups worse as you inhale worse fumes.
but overall any cigarette are just plain bad for you so dont smoke!

i think they are better than cigarettes but you've gota put a filter in it

no they are more harmful stronger

they all kill

yes and no. a cigerette is a cigerette. Though the "brand" name ones contain as many as 102 carcinogens and "rollies" only have about 50. less addictive properties. but who really wants to spit out the tobacco shreads from rollies??!
