You forgot to mention that the 2 studies cited were actually funded by the tobacco industry, and both of the researchers have made a lot of money over the years from tobacco industry cash.

There are over 100 independent, peer-reviewed studies showing that passive smoking causes death and diseases.

Of course, don’t listen to me, listen to the tobacco companies themselves who have finally admitted that passive smoking is deadly, feel free to check their websites.

There’s a bright line between protecting others from breathing cigarette toxins and carcinogens, and moves to punish smokers for having become chemically addicted to smoking nicotine as children or teens, the time when 90% became hooked.

There’s also a bright line between truth and denial about why that next mandatory nicotine feeding has become the smoker’s #1 priority in life, more important than the friends left inside, wind, rain, cold, that harm to the growing fetus in the pregnant mother’s womb, or life itself. We’re told that the new law has up to 30% of England’s smokers planning to quit. I invite them to read the free PDF book “Never Take Another Puff” referenced at thousands of websites. It’s loaded with rationalization destroying insights and tips that help take the mystery and sting out of quitting. Yes you can!!

Well, its not exactly suprising that the effects of passive smoking aren’t as bad as thought and just proves that the whole smoking ban legislation is the government jumping to a reaction again. Personally I am glad that the ban has come in and hopefully i will finally be able to quit the habit.

Recently I came across english nasal snuff tobacco and have been using this as a nicotine replacement, which has really helped me to cut down on cigarettes. Snuff is something I had never really come across before until someone gave me some in a pub. Since then I have been converted to snuff and use this as often as needed to take away the nicotine cravings.

As founder of Snuff Tobacco UK, I hope and think that the smoking ban will only help raise the profile and snuff and I hope to see a resurgence in the habit that is a lot cheaper, healthier and sociable than smoking cigarettes.
