Chemicals Inside Of A Cigarette

poison_sign

When taking a closer look at the chemical makeup inside of a cigarette, it is astonishing to see how many cancer causing ingredients make up the substance.  Over time, Cigarette companies have found their own ways of manipulating their product to enhance the consumers appeal.  By taking time to evaluate the harmful make up, people can choose for themselves whether this substance is of likely personal interest.

the most commonly known addictive chemical within a cigarette is nicotine.  In many cigarettes today, companies altered this chemical to make it more potent in the human body.  This process is called free basing nicotine.  This is similar to the way people manipulate other drugs to increase the desired effect.  In the case of cigarettes, when someone takes a drag, the absorption rate is much faster.  Tobacco leaves and barely are also key ingredients, but to much surprise they only make up about half of a cigarette.  Add-ons are what make up the other fifty percent.  A large portion of these add-ons consist of something called Recon.  Recon is short for reconstituted tobacco.  This is an accumulation of cigarettes that were sent back to the factory, tobacco stems, and tobacco dust from the factory floors.  All of these substances are gradually mixed together, filtered and distributed into single cigarettes.  The average cigarette usually contains over 4,000 chemicals.  These vary from sweeteners like chocolate and vanilla, to other addictive chemicals other like arsenic and lead .  Out of these 4,000 chemicals, 60 are known to be cancerous in the human body.  Some of these chemicals include, Acetone, Benzene, Carbon Monoxide, Ammonia, Hydrogen Cyanide, Isoprene, Lead, Nickel, Nitric Oxide, and Methyl Ethyl Ketone.  When a person lights up a cigarette, the tobacco within it creates over 150,000,000,000 tar particles per cubic inch.  Imagine what this form of pollution does to the environment when there is over 1.2 billion smokers on the planet.  Better yet imagine what that tar does to the human lung over extended period of time.

Although listing the several chemicals within a cigarette may seem like a clutter of jargon, showing what those chemicals are used for in other products is fascinating.  For instance, one can find Nicotine in bug spray, methane in sewer gas, Cadmium in batteries, Ammonia in toilet Cleaner, Methanol in rocket fuel, and Toluene in many industrial solvents.

A casual smoker may have never known that all of these harmful chemicals were in a single drag.  Most of those chemicals will always stay in human body for the individuals entire life.

    hah many of the commentary visitors post crack me up, from time to time i think about whether they actually read the subject material and items before placing a comment or whether they just simply read over the titles and submit the first thing that comes to mind. anyways, it’s pleasant to read clever commentary occasionally as opposed to the very same, classic blog vomit that i invariably see on the internet

    I just can’t believe how many people post spam on websites, particularly private blogs just for the sake of some link juice. I need to stay alert all day even with fancy plugins like Akismet. I don’t want to imagine what would happen to my websites if I didn’t had this kind of security. Get a real job spammers!
