Here are a few facts to help dispel this myth:
* Research has shown that mild, light or low tar cigarettes are just as harmful as regular cigarettes as smokers change their smoking habits. Ex: They smoke more cigarettes, inhale deeply, take more puffs, cut filters... all to satisfy their nicotine addiction they've built up
* The ingredient list in mild, light and low tar are almost identical
* The amount of tar, carbon monoxide or nicotine between regular, light and other cigarettes
...there is no such thing as healthy cigarettes!

alternative to regular ones.
