Asbestos and Snuff

Workers exposed to asbestos have a risk of lung cancer five times higher than those not exposed, but the risk for workers exposed to asbestos who also smoked, multiplied by fifty. Thus, snuff consumption and exposure to asbestos are added to cause lung cancer, adding to the risk inherent in each factor separately.

Exposure to asbestos is very dangerous and can lead to the development of serious diseases. The combination of snuff and asbestos creates a much higher risk for developing mesothelioma and other cancers.

Cigarettes have many harmful chemicals that damage the lungs and can be considered one of the leading causes of cancer.

People who smoke and have been exposed to asbestos are more likely to have COPD than those who have not been exposed to asbestos.
