Are flavored cigarettes worse than regular cigarettes?

Most tobacco products are flavored in some way, although the effect is normally pretty subtle. The list of ingredients Philip Morris USA uses to give their products “unique flavor, taste and aroma” is here: http://www.philipmorrisusa.com/e…

Fruit, chocolate, mint and spice flavored cigarettes have been a problem in the past because of their appeal to young people. One study found that 17-year-old smokers were more than three times more likely to smoke flavored cigarettes than 25 years-olds. So, in that respect, flavored cigarettes are worse than traditional ones because young non-smokers are more likely to find the flavors appealing and become addicted. And, of course, tobacco addiction leads to a higher rate of disease and early death.

Most flavored cigarettes were banned in the U.S. under the Family Smoking Prevention and Tobacco Control Act of 2009. But there were a few exceptions:

Menthol, a mint flavoring, is exempt from the law, and several menthol brands are currently sold. Menthol has anesthetic properties and helps relieve irritation. I’ve seen some reports that menthol smokers tend to hold cigarette smoke in their lungs for a longer period of time because of the menthol. Some other research found that menthol inhibits nicotine metabolism, which would enhance the effect of nicotine in the smoker. So are these products more likely to lead to addiction and tobacco-related diseases? Some would say yes. The tobacco industry says no. And I’m not aware of any conclusive evidence.

Smokeless tobacco and cigars were also exempted from the law. So cherry flavored dip tobacco and flavored cigars and cigarillos are becoming popular alternatives for under-18 smokers in some places. I think it’s likely that these products will also be banned at some point. Not because the flavorings necessarily increase the risk of disease, but because they appeal primarily to minors and not adults.
