Snus and oral cancer

[Kkingery83]

My husband just started using Swedish snus. He chewed American suff for 15 years. Can anyone show me any proff scientific evidence that snus causes oral cancer? I am very freaked out about him using any tobacco so any piece of mind would be appreciated.

It does not cause oral cancer.

Just so you're getting the full picture.

The evidence shows that snus does not cause oral cancer but a study concluded that there was a slightly raised risk of pancreatic cancer. People who have never taken tobacco products get pancreatic cancer at the ratio of 4 in 100,000. This doubles to 8 in every 100,000 for snus.

So I found this article about the huge study in Sweden which followed the 200 thousand plus construction workers and the study found no increase risk for oral cancer but the doctor said that the study was weak. He said they dud not take alcohol consumption in account so this could have confounded the results. What dies that mean and is that a good or bad thing?

[LowKeyLyesmith]

Even if they didn't take alcohol into account, alcohol only raises the risk of oral cancer, so if anything, the study makes snus out to be more dangerous than it actually is. So what it means is that, in reality, unless their other methods of testing were suspect, snus is still (relatively) safe

my god woman how many threads have you started with this question? I know you have posted the same question on 3 existing threads and started at least 2 threads with your question. The members have answered your question several times over. Time for a vacation.

Jesus PP let it go lol. You're stressing yourself out with this!

Edit: never mind I totally get it now. I don't envy her husband with his nasty mouth problems documented with photos all over the internet lol. Poor chap. Not to mention.... ah never mind. She's had enough of a hard time. KK if you're reading this, how about a nice afternoon stroll away from the ol' computer today? Or get drunk or something.

Wow I think you all need to lay off kk. She obviously suffers from anxiety and is worried about her husband. Just give her a break and if you don't like the questions she is asking don't read it. I have been reading his forum for a long time but decided to join today and stand up for this lady. Best of luck to you and your family kkingery83.

It appears that kk has a little too much free time & is obsessing over nothing. My advice: lay off the google, step away from the box of wine, & go do some housework or something. Go do the laundry or make some damn biscuits or something before you drive your poor husband insane.

for those of you that didn't notice Bnshee and KK are one in the same. She recieved a 7 day suspension this morning then made up a new account as Bnshee. As a result of her actions her KK account recieved a month suspension and the Bnshee account got permanently banned. Its really too bad that it came to this. But it is what it is. Just so you know....it wasn't just one mod that decided this.

All the members were very kind and answered her questions in the last few days. But she just wouldn't stop asking the same questions untill seemingly she asked each and every member. We all can understand where she was comming from and freely offered up the info she needed....but at this point she is just trolling. Don't anyone of you think that we don't care. We put up with a lot of crap from her and she pushed it to this point. Also, you members don't know the whole story so please don't second guess the actions of the mods. thanks

i changed my mind, it's not funny. somewhat worrying actually.

[Snusdog]

The truth is…….....PP told his wife to stop bothering him at the office..............and now she got her ass banned.........sooooo.........let's just all give the couple space to work through this on their own.




In all seriousness……… the members of this forum have answered and re-answered the same questions over and again. We have pointed her to every resource on this site and the web........

Thus when the same question is asked... over and over again....on multiple threads....with no indication that she has read any of the info that we have provided… and her questions show no reflection or development of thought on an issue she says is so dear to her (in other words these are not follow up questions......but merely restatements of the same questions already asked 1000 times)....there are really only two likely scenarios:

1. we are dealing with someone that is unstable
2. we are dealing with an intentional troll

Either way… it seemed beast to put the baby to sleep gently……..and without a squawk

PP, you got yourself a stalker! Congrats! I bet she has already put a new blue barrel on the property! Nothing like a little unhinged psychodrama queen to get the old blood a stirring eh? Positively disturbing.

"It's a real good thing you done there johnny"

Trust me, this not right in the head thing gets out of control fast! But, nothing a long long talk with a professional and a little ole blue pill couldn't fix. What do want to bet there is no husband! Oh, you got to love the crazy ones. Good luck shaking this one!
