The short term effects from cigarettes to our heated tobacco product
PMI releases its latest Scientific Update. Issue 13 explores the topic of tobacco harm reduction from multiple angles.
@PMIScience
Aerosols generated by heating tobacco are made of a significantly lower number of components compared to cigarette smoke. Mostly water, glycerin, nicotine, and tobacco flavors. More ➡️ spr.ly/6011yNTpv

Open, transparent and fact-based #science is at the core of what we do. The #OpenScience event series is one of the many ways we share our scientific results openly with the scientific community ➡️ spr.ly/6014ya0uq
Reduced Risk Products ("RRPs”) is the term we use to refer to products that present, are likely to present, or have the potential to present less risk of harm to smokers who switch to these products versus continuing smoking. PMI has a range of RRPs in various stages of development, scientific assessment and commercialization. Our RRPs are smoke-free products that produce an aerosol that contains far lower quantities of harmful and potentially harmful constituents than found in cigarette smoke.
