“…Although the health ramifications of snus are less severe than for cigarettes, snus is still an addictive product that is associated with increased health risks compared with using no tobacco at all (Gartner, Hall, Chapman, & Freeman, 2007;Lee, 2011). Given the high rate of adoption of snus use observed in our study, future studies should determine the impact of snus marketing on awareness, attitudes and uptake in an effort to reduce tobacco consumption of all types among all age groups.…”

“…Nyere systematiske oppsummeringer av befolkningsundersøkelser viser at bruk av svensk snus -i motsetning til røyking -verken er assosiert med kreft i lunge, munnhule, blaere, magesekk, nyre eller strupehode (SCENIHR, 2008;Lee & Hamling 2009;Lee 2011). For kreft i bukspyttkjertel og spiserør er resultatene motstridende (Bertuccio et al, 2011;Bofetta et al, 2008;Lee, 2011;IARC, 2012), men risikoestimatene ser uansett ut til å vaere lavere enn ved røyking (SCENHIR, 2008).…”

Epidemiologer understreker at kreft har lang 'inkubasjonstid' og at forskerne derfor trenger lengere observasjonstid for å kunne trekke sikrere konklusjoner om den rolle snusbruk eventuelt kan ha for kreftutvikling.…”

“…Products that deliver nicotine without the smoke carry no more than 1% of the health risks of smoking [Phillips et al 2006]. Decades of research on Swedish smokers who switched to snus (a type of moist snuff) showed no increased risk of any type of cancer, cardiovascular disease or lung disease [Lee, 2011]. Similarly, a review of 120 studies on NRT products found that NRT is associated with adverse effects that may be discomforting for the patient but are not life threatening [Mills et al 2010].…”
