Tobacco additives may increase the consumption rate of tobacco products by making the product more palatable and attractive to the consumer, or by enhancing the addictiveness of the product. Additives may make individual brands taste more appealing and mask the taste and immediate discomfort of smoke. As such, additives may indirectly enhance tobacco related harm by increasing the consumption of these toxic products. The same effect will result from additives that enhance the addictiveness of tobacco components. Tobacco additives, especially when burnt, may also intrinsically increase the toxicity of the tobacco product. Many additives give toxic pyrolysis products when burnt. For instance, burning of sugars in tobacco will results in many toxic compounds including aldehydes.
