Summary

This study looks at how smoking little cigars affects levels of harmful chemicals called oxidants in the body. Researchers will compare three types of smoking: high-oxidant little cigars, low-oxidant little cigars, and regular cigarettes. Fifty daily smokers will provide breath, blood, saliva, and cheek cell samples before and after smoking to measure these effects.
