is menthol cigarettes worse than non-menthol?

Answer 1

Yes. From several studies:

Smokers of menthol cigarettes tend to inhale more deeply because menthol has an anesthetic and cooling effect.

Mentholated cigarettes are associated with higher cotinine levels and carbon monoxide concentrations than non-mentholated cigarettes.

Research has shown that smokers of low- and medium-nicotine menthol cigarettes have as much as three times the exposure to toxic and cancer-inducing agents as smokers of non-menthol cigarettes with comparable nicotine content.

Answer 2

no,the only differance between menthol cigarettes and regular is that menthols have a flavoring spead on the fliters after they are placed in the pack. the flavor soaks into the filter and into the tabacco. There is no other difference. Now if you smokem deeper or smoke more of them its on you.
