Chewing Snuff Increases the Risk of Heart Attack and Stroke
The chewing snuff and snus, which is consumed placed under the lip, also increases the risk of myocardial infarction and stroke, such as snuff to smoking, although many of its consumers take as a healthier alternative, according to the results of an investigation by the French Agency for Research on Cancer.
The study was based on a compilation of data from the U.S. and Sweden, two countries where most consumed this “smokeless snuff. In fact, the Nordic country is the only European Union where it is permitted sale.
Thus, in the United States has shown that this type of snuff causes 0.5 percent of heart attacks and 1.7 percent of deaths from stroke, while in Sweden the figure rises to 5 , 6 and 5.4 percent respectively.
However, Dr Paolo Boffetta, author of the research, it requires more studies that prove this relationship which, if true, “would have strong implications for clinical and public health.”
