Smokeless Tobacco



The National Cancer Institute, National Institutes of Health, developed this Smokeless Tobacco Web Page. It is designed for the general public, including kids and contains facts about smokeless tobacco in the United States, including the health risks from smokeless tobacco use. This Web site is not designed to be the definitive source about smokeless tobacco, but serves as a reference site with general information about smokeless tobacco.

We also provide links to some other Internet sites that contain useful smokeless tobacco information. These links do not imply endorsement by the National Cancer Institute but are provided as a convenience.

Remember — Smokeless Tobacco is not a safe alternative to cigarettes. It is addictive and can cause cancer. Smokeless tobacco does not make you cool or a better athlete. It's an addiction and is bad for your health!
