Nicotiana Tabaccum, Cancer, Herbal Medicines, Nicotine, Lung Cancer.Abstract
Tobacco smoke is the cancerous back-up that has made the most important and successful efforts to reduce the incidence of cancer in human history. An important milestone of these efforts was the light published by Cancer Research by collaborators and colleagues, who showed the ability of tobacco to create tumors in the tissues. In this study, cancer and technological pandemics provided an effective link to cancer. It is our ethical responsibility to translate our success in reducing lung cancer worldwide, reducing the 1.25 billion people who smoke in the United State. There are huge number of herbal medicines described in Ayurvedic and other alternative traditional medicines whose popularity and use in uplifting the general health of common people is still not so efficient because of several reasons. The tobacco plant, Nicotiana tabaccum, has probably been responsible for more deaths than any other herb. Present, irrational tobacco use is causing over 3 million deaths a year worldwide, and if current trends continue the annual mortality will exceed 10 million by around 2030.
