Domestic 13 Brands Of Cigarettes Are Exploded With Heavy Metals Exceeding Standard

(13 brands of heavy metals in cigarettes)

According to relevant media reports, in October 7th, the ninth Asia Pacific tobacco and health conference was held in Sydney, Australia.

Richard OConnor, a researcher in the project and Rothwell Parker Cancer Institute in New York, pointed out that smokers and non smokers have the right to know what ingredients are contained in cigarettes.

Tobacco contains lethal ingredients, and there is an urgent need for strong intervention in cigarette products and strict compliance with the WHO Framework Convention on tobacco control.

Professor Jeffrey Fang, a Canadian researcher, finally stressed that Chinese people know little about tobacco harm. If they do not take effective measures, China will soon fall into an unprecedented public health disaster.

As a state party to the Framework Convention on tobacco control, China must take effective measures to protect citizens from tobacco harm.

It is also reported that these 13 kinds of

For this study, Wang Yunbai, a tobacco expert in Tobacco Research Institute of the Academy of Agricultural Sciences, said: "although I do not know how the above organizations can reach the above conclusions, I personally believe that the research data of the report reflect more about the organizers' dissatisfaction with tobacco control after China's participation in the tobacco control framework convention, and the suspicion of using heavy metals to exceed the standard.

"

Wang Yunbai thinks that heavy metals, including ordinary foods, tea, tobacco and so on, usually come from soil, which is passive absorption, but not human.

"Most of the heavy metals in tobacco are kept in the ashes after burning, and only a small part is absorbed into the human body through food intake, while heavy metals in food enter 100% of the body.

Therefore, the content of heavy metals in food does not exceed 1 mg, so the content of heavy metals in tobacco does not exceed 5 mg.

"

However, Wang Yunbai also admitted that because of the different tobacco producing areas and soils, the content of heavy metals in different parts of China is also different. At present, the heavy metal content in tobacco producing areas in China has only scattered research data and lacks a complete research data.

At the same time, the sources of raw materials in the tobacco industry are also uncontrollable. It is difficult to trace the origin and batch of tobacco materials.

In addition, the tobacco industry also lacks the Standard Specification for heavy metal content.

"The Standardization Committee of the State Tobacco Monopoly Bureau has been working out a draft of the pollution-free standard for tobacco industry, including the standard of heavy metal content, but so far, it has not yet been published.

"Wang Yunbai said so.

According to the data released by the Ministry of health in 2009, 350 million of smokers in China and 540 million of passive smokers, 180 million of children under 15 years old, 1 million people die from smoking related diseases every year.

Liu Yuanli, director of the health and development research center of Tsinghua University, said in a media interview that China's tobacco control efforts over the past eight years were largely unsuccessful.

Compared with eight years ago, the smoking rate of men aged 15 and above in China is still 53%.
