Premature Death

Health Effects• Smokeless tobacco contains 28 cancer-
causing agents (carcinogens).
• Oral health problems are strongly associated with smokeless tobacco use.

Health Effects• Secondhand smoke exposure causes heart
disease and lung cancer in nonsmoking adults.• Nonsmokers who are exposed to secondhand
smoke at home or work increase their heart disease risk by 25–30% and their lung cancer risk by 20–30%.
• There is NO risk-free level of second-hand smoke exposure.

Hookah• Hookahs use a moist
paste, which is typically 30% tobacco fermented with 70% molasses and fruit.
• This gives it a more pleasant taste and smell than traditional tobacco products.
• The different fruit flavors make it “easier” for non-smokers to try & use.

Tobacco Manipulation
Flavored products: Cigarettes, smokeless tobacco, and so-called “little cigars” have been introduced in many candy, fruit, and alcohol flavors that mask the harshness of the products and make them appealing to children and youth.

Tobacco Manipulation
Novel smokeless products: New smokeless tobacco products, some in teabag-like pouches and even in dissolvable, candy-like tablets, have been marketed as ways to help smokers sustain their addiction where they cannot smoke.

Tobacco ManipulationTargeted products and marketing: New products and marketing, such as R.J. Reynolds’ Camel No. 9, are aimed at women, girls and other populations.

Tobacco Manipulation
Unproven health claims: To discourage smokers from quitting, and possibly entice new or former smokers, increasingnumbers of products have been marketed with unproven and misleading claims that they are less harmful than traditional cigarettes.

Tobacco ManipulationUndisclosed product designs: The report also details how tobacco manufacturers control nicotine delivery to maximize addiction, while using flavorings and other additives to make their products milder, easier to inhale and more attractive to children and first-time smokers.

Health Benefits of Cessation• People who stop smoking greatly reduce their risk of disease and
premature death. Benefits are greater for people who stop at earlier ages, but cessation is beneficial at all ages.– Smoking cessation lowers the risk for lung and other types of cancer. The risk
for developing cancer declines with the number of years of smoking cessation.– Risk for coronary heart disease, stroke, and peripheral vascular disease is
reduced after smoking cessation. Coronary heart disease risk is substantially reduced within 1 to 2 years of cessation.
– Smoking cessation reduces respiratory symptoms, such as coughing, wheezing, and shortness of breath. The rate of decline in lung function is slower among persons who quit smoking.
– Smoking cessation reduces the risk of developing chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), one of the leading causes of death in the United States.
– Women who stop smoking during their reproductive years reduce their risk for infertility. Women who stop smoking during pregnancy also reduce their risk of having a low birth weight baby.

Cessation Options• Effective treatments that can increase the chances of successful
cessation include:– Brief clinical interventions (i.e., when a doctor takes 10 minutes or less to
deliver advice and assistance about quitting)– Counseling (e.g., individual, group, or telephone counseling)– Behavioral cessation therapies (e.g., training in problem solving)– Treatments with more person-to-person contact and intensity (e.g., more
time with counselors)
• Cessation medications found to be effective for treating tobacco dependence include:– Over-the-counter and prescription nicotine replacement products (e.g.,
nicotine gum, inhaler, nasal spray, lozenge, or patch) – Prescription nonnicotine medications, such as bupropion SR (Zyban®) and
varenicline tartrate (Chantix®).– The combination of medication and counseling is more effective for smoking
cessation than either medication or counseling alone.
