One of the biggest public health threats that the people face today is cigarette smoking. Global studies estimate that every year, about 8
million people die prematurely because of it. Over 7 million of those deaths are the consequence of direct tobacco use while about 1.2
million are the result of non-smokers being exposed to second-hand smoke. According to World Health Organization (WHO), nicotine
contained in tobacco is highly addictive and the use of tobacco is a serious risk factor for cardiovascular and respiratory diseases. Tobacco
smoking causes lung diseases, cancer, stroke, heart disease, diabetes, and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), which includes
chronic bronchitis and emphysema. It also increases the risk for certain eye disorders and diseases, tuberculosis, and problems of the
immune system. Most deaths related to tobacco smoking occur in low and middle-income countries, which are frequently the targets of
rigorous tobacco industry interference and marketing. Tobacco can also be deadly for non-smokers. People who have been exposed to
second-hand smoke are likely to develop numerous health problems including more frequent and severe asthma attacks and respiratory
infections. Second-hand smoke contains over 7,000 chemicals, of which hundreds are toxic and about 70 can cause cancer. Nearly half of
all children breathe air polluted by tobacco smoke and over 65,000 children die each year because of health problems related to second-
hand smoke. Reports have also shown that tobacco smoke when inhaled by pregnants can lead to several life-long health conditions for
babies. Increasing quit rates would have a significant positive impact upon the health and well-being of smokers and their households
(Blakely et al., 2010) Unfortunately various smoking cessation aids on the market are expensive, have side effects, and are only moderately
efficacious. In Asia, many countries began producing cigarettes that combine tobacco with herbal plants. Asian herbal-tobacco cigarettes
can appeal to Asian smokers who believe that smoking these herbs provide them with health benefits. Many items claimed to alleviate
respiratory problems and eliminate toxins (Chen et al., 2007). In the case of tobacco-free herbal cigarettes, the herbs and flowerings
provide a more relaxing feeling than the addictive nicotine. Herbal cigarettes are offered as a non-addictive, risk-free substitute for tobacco
smoking. After all, herbal cigarettes have no tobacco and as a result, no nicotine—the substance in cigarettes that causes addiction.
According to Maslowski (2010), people can smoke practically any herb that they can consume. However, certain herbs are more suited for
this application than others. Jasmine, ginseng, corn silk, and rose petals are some of the most common herbs and flowerings in herbal
cigarettes and many people use these to help them quit smoking tobacco. Another significant advantage of herbal cigarettes is that people
will not be inhaling the many chemicals and toxins associated with tobacco cigarettes. Cigarette brands that are all-natural appears to be
few and far between. With herbal cigarettes, people do not have to worry about dangerous tobacco. Smoking herbal plants as an alternative
to tobacco provide smokers with the same oral satisfaction while delivering healing compounds to the throat and lungs—but without the
nicotine and tar. Smoking herbal plants can help in reducing the desire of smokers to consume tobacco cigarettes.
