Poisonous toxins, such as lead, tar, arsenic, and about 600 chemicals, are found in the unlit death stick (including cigars). Once it is lighted, the smoke contains thousands more chemicals, which reap havoc in our bodies: formaldehyde, benzene, ammonia, acetone, and toluene, to name a few. As these cancer-producing vapors, are inhaled our bodies absorb and with time, we pay A price.

FYI, marijuana smoke contains much the same toxic components, irritants, and carcinogens.

BTW, smokeless tobacco is not a safe alternative to cigarettes!
