As a former 30+ year cigarette smoker and nicotine-addict, snus has been a God-send to me.

But the tremendous amount of misinformation on the Internet; sadly a good portion deliberate, hardened my resolve to keep, especially the uneducated American smoker like I once was, from falling into the marketing trap aimed at the 46 Million+ remaining nicotine-addicted smokers in the US…..Snus was invented over 200 years ago by the Swedish: not 3 years ago by American tobacco.

And most importantly, NOT ALL Snus is REAL Snus! The differences when it comes to reduced harm…..such as Swedish Snus having low to virtually NO TSNA’s (tobacco specific carcinogens), is NOT true of all products calling themselves “snus”.

The FDA is due to take control of tobacco, probably during the 2009 Congressional session. From there, the clock starts ticking down to a ban on cigarettes.

The bulk of those 46MM+ smokers are nicotine-addicted or they would have quit already in today’s anti-tobacco social and professional climate. A huge amount of money is at stake: for the tobacco companies, and especially in these economic times, for the Federal and State governments through tobacco taxes: the economy would collapse without smokers holding it up with outrageous cigarette taxes….up to 80% of the price of a pack of cigarettes is Federal, State and other taxes!

So we’re working as quickly as we can but you can imagine the enormous amount of information involved and putting it together so it’s easy for you to follow and get the answers you need quickly.

Sincerely,

Your friends at SnusCENTRAL.org
