Menthol brands of cigarettes are not safer and can be more dangerous. People who smoke menthol brands can inhale more deeply and take longer puffs than smokers of non-menthol brands.

I saw something that said that it doesn't have fiberglass in it and then I found this.


Menthol Cigarettes

Roll it up and smoke it. Sounds crazy hu? Well, then why do people want to destroy their lungs with menthol cigarettes?

Abstract: Menthol is the only cigarette additive that is actively promoted by the industry. Initially marketed aggressively to African Americans, the 1999 National Household Survey on Drug Abuse confirms significant use of mentholated cigarettes not only among African Americans, but also among White and Hispanic youth and by women. Indeed, Newport, the top U.S. menthol brand, is now second only to Marlboro in market share. Because of the association of menthol with medications, many consumers believe that menthol cigarettes are safer. Far from being innocuous, menthol in tobacco has been shown to increase carbon monoxide and cotinine levles, expand the bronchial passages to increase particulate permeation into the lungs and may result in increased retention of smoke constituents in the lungs, all contributing to increased body burden of toxins. The current state-of-the-science regarding the social cachet, epidemiology, marketing and toxicology of menthol cigarettes in the United States will be presented. The information presented in this panel is a prerequisite for tobacco control activists not only to promote better understanding of menthol, but as a model for understanding other tobacco additives.
