Are hand-made cigarettes more harmful than boxed cigarettes?

First of all, by hand-rolled dry cigarettes, you mean homemade cigarettes, right? Maybe you mean the kind of cigarettes made by the farmer's uncle. Domestic mainstream flue-cured tobacco will greatly increase the tar produced during smoking during processing. In other words, the processing of flue-cured tobacco will not only reduce the tar content, but also increase the tar content. In fact, hand-rolled tobacco has been popular in Europe for a long time abroad. The first reason is that the tobacco tax in Europe is very high and the price of finished cigarettes is also very high. Later, people chose to buy semi-finished cut tobacco with low tax to roll tobacco. Later, many famous brands were published. I still don't know if it is to save money. Hand-rolled tobacco also has the possibility of non-addition, naturalness and blending, and a variety of selectivity of hand-rolled paper (non-coloring bleaching, extremely thin and other types). There is also an elegant handmade noodle craft that has gradually become popular all over the world. It is not very popular in China at present. In principle, you can't buy foreign cut tobacco, but there are also many domestic cut tobacco that occupy the daily life of hand cigarette lovers. Although there are few brands, if there are channels, loose silk produced in Yunnan, produced in Hunan, and famous Mohe cigarettes are all good choices.

Finally, the harm of handmade cigarettes depends on whether you buy authentic tobacco. As far as the harm to health is concerned, I can guarantee that hand-made cigarettes are absolutely smaller, because the processing is purely manual and the quality of tobacco is similar, depending on what tobacco you buy. Once all kinds of cut corners and additives processed in factories are missing, the difference between them will be reflected.

Cigarette:

A cigarette is a tobacco product. The production method is to dry tobacco and shred it, and then grow it into a barrel-shaped strip with a diameter of 120mm in a paper roll. When smoking, one end is lit, and then the smoke is breathed through the mouth at the other end. Cigars are smoked by rolling tobacco into cylindrical strips. The main difference between cigarettes and cigars is that cigarettes are smaller and tobacco is finely chopped. Cigarettes were first popular in Turkey, and locals like to roll up tobacco with newspapers and smoke it. During the Crimean War, British soldiers learned the method of smoking from the soldiers of the Ottoman Empire at that time, and then spread it to different places. 1843 On June 25th, France began to manufacture the first batch of cigarettes for commercial sale in history. Later, cigarettes became popular everywhere.

Cigarette production and composition:

Tobacco is not the only ingredient in most cigarettes. Manufacturers usually add a large number of different additives to cigarettes in order to control the composition and quality of cut tobacco, preserve it, and change the feeling that smoke may have on smokers when it is ignited. Some cigarettes are added with cloves in order to make smokers' mouth and lungs a little paralyzed, thus producing a little pleasure. Some low-priced cigarettes will directly add clove extract.

The cut tobacco of some cigarettes has undergone many special treatments. In the primary processing of tobacco leaves, a large number of dusty broken cigarettes will be produced. These tobacco dust will be collected and then recycled into the components of cigarettes. In addition to additives, tobacco, especially rough machining, has obvious harm to human body. When tobacco leaves are processed into cigarettes, they will be separated, chopped and finely cut. Once tobacco leaves are dried and processed, a lot of smoke and dust will be produced. In this process, new raw materials are added to make them become new raw materials.

The tobacco leaves left after processing have high nitrogen content and are not suitable for making cigarettes. Generally, they are discarded or scattered in the field. The processing will be refined again and additives will be added to the stalks. All cigarette manufacturing processes will reduce the raw materials of tobacco as much as possible.

Some smokers use their own cigarettes to pack loose flue-cured tobacco paper; However, most buyers provide brands, generally 10 or 20 per pack. Commercially available cigarettes usually contain smoke directly inhaled by smokers and filtered by cellulose acetate or cotton, but the filter cannot filter second-hand smoke, which is much more harmful than the smoke directly inhaled. It is worth mentioning that there is a new type of electronic cigarette, of which Aoyu is a typical one. They can completely avoid second-hand smoke and have a certain effect of quitting smoking.
