| 36. Which is why it's odd they keep highlighting nicotine residue when nicotine is not a carcinogen |
|
and they talk about the TSNA's which are an additive in American cigarettes and cause a form of lung cancer only seen in America. If they believe the TSNA residue is a problem it would seem they would mention this is an additive only used here. And I have no idea why they kept talking about nicotine residue in an article about possible causes of cancer. Poorly written? Or misleading?
