• Receding gums, which can eventually make teeth fall out
• Higher chances of heart attacks and strokes
Mike Sanchez NATIVE Tobacco Project, United Indian Health
• Cracked/bleeding lips and gums
The two types of smokeless tobacco market in the United States are chewing tobacco and snuff. Snuff is finer grain tobacco that sometimes comes in pouches that look like mini tea bags. Chewing tobacco is larger grain tobacco leaves that are twisted or shredded and come loose in paper packets or small cans. In either case, people who use smokeless tobacco often place the tobacco between their inner cheek and gums on the lower part of their jaw. People often spit a lot to get rid of the tobacco build up, but this does nothing to get rid of the nicotine as it is absorbed through the gums and into the bloodstream. Nicotine is a chemical that is very addictive and not a safe alternative to smoking. Some of the health risks associated with smokeless tobacco include:
• Increased heart rate, high blood pressure, and irregular heartbeat
NATIVE TOBACCO PROJECT The dangers of smokeless tobacco
• CancerCancerofthe mouth is cancer most often linked to smokeless tobacco usage which is followed by cancer of the stomach, throat, and bladder. The reason for this is that the chemicals from tobacco get into a person’s digestive system. In severe cases, problems caused by smokeless tobacco can lead to permanent disfigurements, such as the loss of teeth and bones in the Theface.good news in all of this is that these and other dangers associated with smokeless tobacco can be fixed or avoided completely. If you or someone you know are using commercial tobacco products and are looking to quit, Kick It California can help. This program has already helped a million people, you could be a million and one. Kick It California has been helping people quit smoking for over 32 years, so they know what works and what doesn’t. Their program is based on science, and it’s proven very effective. And best of all, it’s completely free! Kick It California can be accessed at www.kickitca.org.
