Is cigar harmful to the body?

Many men like to smoke cigarettes. Cigars are a type of high-value, high-end cigarette. The raw material for making cigars is also tobacco. The biggest difference in the production process between it and ordinary cigarettes is that the tobacco used to make cigars needs to be fermented after drying, and the fermentation methods are very diverse. This is why there are many flavors of cigars. So, are cigars harmful to the human body?

We all know that cigarettes are baked, and the raw material of cigars is tobacco, the same as cigarettes, but the difference is that cigars need to be dried and fermented, while the tobacco of cigarettes does not need to be fermented. This is the biggest difference in the manufacturing process between cigars and cigarettes.

Another point is that cigarettes are not manufactured according to the different leaves, but cigars are different. A good hand-rolled cigar is made by mixing different varieties from different origins and fermentation methods, so the aroma of cigars varies, and there are still many differences in the subsequent formula and processing.

The harm is dozens of times that of cigarettes

There is a big difference between smoking cigars and smoking cigarettes. When you smoke a cigar, you don't inhale it. When you smoke a cigar, the ammonia contained in the cigar smoke is higher than that in cigarettes.

The cadmium content in cigars is five to ten times that in cigarettes. After fermentation and aging, the nicotine content of fermented cigar leaves is lower than that of tobacco leaves, so it will be less choking and the taste of the tobacco itself will be more prominent.

Some businesses will mislead consumers by saying that although cigars contain high levels of various substances, they do not enter the lungs, so there is no harm. However, cigar smokers and people around them always have to breathe, and if the cigar does not enter the lungs, it will still enter the mouth and nasal cavity, so there is still harm. Evidence shows that there is a close relationship between cigar smoking and pancreatic cancer.

A lot of attention

There are many more things to pay attention to between smoking cigars and cigarettes. First of all, you need to remove the tail of the cigar yourself, and there are different methods for different types of cigars. Second, you don't need to flick the ash frequently when smoking, just tap it off gently. The third point is that you don’t need to pinch out a cigar when you smoke it, because it will automatically go out in about three minutes if you don’t inhale it. Another point is that cigars should be placed in special moisturizing boxes and smoke regulators. In order to ensure the taste, they cannot be left outside at will.

One thing that needs to be noted is that cigar smokers do not want the smoke to enter their lungs, because cigars contain too many harmful substances and most people cannot stand it. They just taste the aroma of cigars. However, such an environment will increase the harm of secondhand smoke to people around many times. If there are elderly people and children, please do not smoke cigars. If there are ladies present, please seek the consent of the women present.

Status symbol

In fact, many people smoke cigars not because they like to smoke cigars, but just to show off their status. It is hard to imagine a person who is unkempt, bare-chested and naked smoking a cigar, because cigars, especially high-end cigars, are a symbol of status and a reflection of one's taste.

Social Needs

Another point is one's own social needs. People who smoke cigars are more for the taste, so what they taste needs to be communicated with others. People who smoke cigars are often high-end people in society. Some people smoke cigars just to find some common interests with those high-end people and to meet their social needs.
