Which of the following is TRUE about Eclipse?
The R-J Reynolds Tobacco Company has launched a campaign to sell a cigarette that it says is safer for smokers than other cigarettes. The company says its new product, called Eclipse, is less likely to cause cancer and lung diseases.
Eclipse looks like a normal cigarette. It heats tobacco covering a thin piece of carbon. The carbon becomes hot when lit, but it does not burn. The result is smoke that is mostly water and a sweetener called glycerin. Whereas smoke from a traditional cigarette is mainly a mixture of the chemical nicotine and tar.
The company said the smoke that Eclipse contains 80% lower levels of the substances believed to cause cancer. It also said Eclipse produces 70% less of the chemicals that may damage the genetic material in smokers. However, the advertisements for Eclipse do not claim that it is less likely to cause heart disease or problems for pregnant women.
Public health officials and anti-smoking groups criticized the campaign for Eclipse. They said there is not enough scientific evidence to support the claim that Eclipse may reduce the risk of cancer. The American Cancer Society also stated that it wants proof to support the claim that Eclipse is a safer cigarette.
