Benefits of technology

[0010] It is the objective of this invention to provide a composition of a new cigarette substitute having the taste and aroma of seven different fragrant plants, which do not contain nicotine and results in preventing cancer. This invention is composed of, but not limited to, the leaves of Green Tea. The cigarette substitute of this invention is manufactured in a normal cigarette appearance, 20 each per pack. The cigarette substitute emits a reduced amount of tar. Nicotine amounts are undetectable. The cigarette substitute made from the mixture of the leaves of the Green Tea

Embodiment Construction

[0011] Scientists already know that green tea contains anti-oxidants, which may have a protective effect against cancer. But now they have discovered that chemicals in the tea also shut down a key molecule that can play a significant role in the development of cancer.

[0012] The molecule, known as the aryl hydrocarbon (AH) receptor, has the ability to activate genes—but not always in a positive way. Tobacco smoke and dioxins in particular, disrupt the functioning of the molecule and cause it to trigger potentially harmful gene activity.

[0013] The researchers, from Rochester University, found that two chemicals in green tea inhibit AH activity. Both chemicals are similar to compounds called flavonoids, which are found in broccoli, cabbage, grapes and red wine, and which are also known to help prevent cancer. Researcher Professor Thomas Gasiewicz showed that the chemicals, Catechins and Flavonoids, shut down the AH receptor in cancerous mouse cells. Early results indicate the same is...

Abstract

A non-nicotine cigarette substitute, maintaining the taste and flavor of seven different plants, is comprised of, but not limited to, leaves of Green Tea. The cigarette substitute has additional beneficial effects of low nicotine emission. The cigarette substitute of also helps smokers to quit smoking. It eliminates the poisons from the blood of a pre-smoker. The additives of six plants are extracts of red berry, kiwi, mango, orange, lime, and peach. Specially treated leaves of green tea are used for the base material.

Description

1. FIELD OF INVENTION [0001] The present invention relates to a composition of matter for the manufacturing of a cigarette substitute, which contains the taste of seven different plants while emitting low levels of nicotine. 2. BACKGROUND OF INVENTION [0002] Scientists already know that green tea contains anti-oxidants that may effectively protect against cancer. Researchers from Rochester University have discovered that chemicals in the green tea, Catechins and Flavonoids, shut down a key molecule, which can play a significant role in the development of cancer. Tobacco smoke and dioxins disrupt the functioning of the molecule and cause it to trigger potentially harmful gene activity. The Rochester team showed that the chemicals shut down the aryl hydrocarbon (AH) receptor in cancerous mouse cells. However, the scientists say that the results in the laboratory do not necessarily translate to everyday life, as the crucial factor is how green tea is broken down inside the body. It is ...
