Nicotine chewing gums ‘raise cancer risk’

It is found by the team of British scientists that nicotine chewing gum, lozenges and inhalers may have the potential to cause cancer.

They found a link between mouth cancer and exposure to nicotine, which may indicate that using oral nicotine replacement therapies for long periods could contribute to a raised risk of the disease.


The addictive chemical in tobacco, may be more carcinogenic than had previously been appreciated.


It is a fact that Smoking is of course far more dangerous, and people involved in nicotinic product usage should continue its use care fully and also under the guidance of their doctor.
