Snus and cancer

[ravekidd69]

Hello everyone, I have been an on an off snus user for about three years now. I recently quit smoking and dipping so now I've decided to strictly use snus. My interest for snus was sparked because I read articles and studies that said that snus had lower carcinogen levels than dip and that it didn't cause mouth cancer, but that it was linked to some pancreatic cancers but it was rare. So obviously snus was a safer choice than cigs or dip, which is packed full of bad stuff. I quit dipping and smoking because I didn't want cancer basically, and since snus doesn't cause cancer apparently, i decided it was the best option. However i started researching snus like the history of it all because I was curious and I stumbled upon more recent studies and some of them are saying that snus can cause mouth cancer just like any other tobacco product, even tho it has lower cancer causing agents. Also to top it off most if not all of the studies that said snus didn't cause mouth cancer was funded by Swedish match, well according to one study I just read that is. I'm just wondering yalls thought on the matter? Has anyone else read into the health risks? Does it cause the big C or what? I need to know!!! [emoji33] lol

I think it is true, when u overdose it. If you want to prevent it from you, u can use natural creations to be the treatment I recommend lemongrass as the one you should concern.
Studies show that a particular essential oil may provide a solid defense against various cancers. This lemongrass essential oil, which contains high levels of an aromatic terpene known as linalool, has been utilized throughout history in the treatment of various health conditions. What’s even more exciting is that some of the latest science suggests that it’s at least as effective as chemotherapy in targeting cancer cells – without the harmful toxic effects of chemotherapy.
But where lemongrass really seems to shine, particularly in light of the growing cancer epidemic, is in its ability to destroy cancer cells. A 2009 study published in the journal Chemico-Biological Interactions revealed that lemongrass essential oil is effective in targeting at least 12 different human cancer cell lines. Animal trials show that direct injection of lemongrass essential oil inhibits cancer tumors in a dose-dependent way, meaning the higher the dose of the oil, the better the outcome.
When administered at a dosage of 200 milligrams per kilogram (mg/kg) concentration, lemongrass essential oil was shown to inhibit both ascitic (in the fluid of the abdominal cavity) and solid tumors of Ehrlich Ascites (a type of tumor cell line) by 97.34 percent and 57.83 percent, respectively. For Sarcoma-180 tumor cells, the same dosage resulted in ascitic and solid tumor inhibition of 94.07 percent and 36.97 percent, respectively.
