Altria was not immediately available to comment on the matter.<\/p>\n<p>In the letter, Altria reportedly cited government studies about the misperceptions around nicotine, and said that the move would be crucial in helping traditional smokers transition to noncombustible methods for nicotine.<\/p>\n<p>While the vast majority of Altria&#x27;s revenue comes from selling cigarettes and cigars, it also owns a stake in vaping company Juul, a nicotine pouch brand On! and it markets IQOS, a smoke-free tobacco product that heats tobacco instead of burning it, in the U.S.<\/p>\n<p>There are at least 60 carcinogens in cigarette smoke, but these newer products deliver nicotine without burning it. As Altria&#x27;s regulator, the FDA can determine what claims it can make about its products. <\/p>\n<p>The FDA has allowed Altria to market IQOS as providing users with less exposure to harmful chemicals than cigarette smoke. <\/p>\n<p>Nicotine is the ingredient that makes tobacco addictive, and it may have other negative impacts. The article mentions studies that have shown nicotine can interfere with brain development and birth outcomes, and act as an agricultural poison in large doses. <\/p>\n<p>Read the full Bloomberg story here. <\/p>\n<p>Source: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.cnbc.com\/2021\/03\/04\/altria-asks-fda-to-spread-the-word-that-nicotine-doesnt-cause-cancer-report.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Read Full Article<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Marlboro parent Altria is asking the Food<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":3,"featured_media":115513,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[23051],"tags":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v21.7 -
