Better living through chemistry?
Not all gases are created equal
The Gaseous Phase of cigarette smoke contains many more chemicals, some of which
are know carcinogens and toxins, than the Particulate Phase (Tar). Though this at first
glance would seem to create a good argument for banning smoking because of the
supposed contaminants in second hand smoke, in truth, again, these contaminants are not
present in tobacco smoke. And thus, what is true of cigarettes is not true of tobacco.
The Gaseous Phase of the smoke of the cigarette is that part of the smoke which
contains the greatest number of harmful chemicals. It is the medium which disperses
the particulate matter (called tar) and contains many components of the tar in a gaseous
state.
The Gaseous Phase of cigarette smoke also contains many components which are not
present in the tar from the cigarette. When the Government endorsed the lower tar
cigarette, it forgot to warn the public about the dangers from the Gaseous Phase which
was exacerbated by the addition of more chemicals and the use of filters designed to
turn measurable tar into non-measurable gas.
America's best kept secret will be fully exposed in a new electronic publication
forthcoming by Dr. Ira T. Lapides. The electronic book will be titled -Cigarette Gate-
