rolling tobacco

[Fan o KmK]

i was just wondering if anyone knew if purchased rolling tobacco was any less harmful to your lungs than cigarettes. a friend of mine recently bought a bag of samson dutch rolling tobacco and it just looks like straight leaves so i cant imagine its as bad as cigarettes, being treated with all kinds of chemicles and god knows what. someone please enlighten.

tabacco is tabacco i guess... it may be better than cigs but its still not safe

Do you roll ur cigs with a filter? Cuz if you go non filter, yes it is worse.

i dont smoke cigs i was just wondering if rolling was less harmful because it hasnt been through god knows what in the marlboro processing plants.

and filters...no. i dont think people put cig filters in their hand rolled cigs. maybe they do but i duno

there are generally less additives, but the smoke is alot harsher.

i roll my own, and i'll say

1. oh, it'll give you cancer no doubt, not "safe". whether it's "more safe" than most cigs, probably; all RYO tobacco contains few or no additives, but i wouldn't think of it that way; as far as i know, smoking organic, perfect tobacco leaves will give you cancer; but i like to avoid all the additives anyway: summary: it's not safe, you will have a very highly increased likelihood of cancer

2. my suggestions for RYO: mclintock red and the stokebye versions; american spirit isn't great, pretty harsh, but it is completely additive free

i like hemp rolling papers (and we should all support hemp farmers, it's important for legilization)

ps: what i suggest is to buy filter tubes and a cig-machine. that's the little plastic thingy you go "swipe-swipe" and you've got a cig. fast, filtered, and those machines are only a couple bucks. i carry rolling papers when i'm on the go though, and all good cannabis lovers should know how to roll

marlboro is hardly the cig company to worry about... the cheap ass generic companies are th eoens to really worry about o.0

it would depend on the tobacco i guess... i'm sure there's some all natural rolling tobacco out there somewhere... but i'm guessing it goes through the same things tobacco goes through to be rolled in companies...

and if you roll without a filter, it's definately more harmful to roll your own then through the cig companies.
