An industrial cigarette, a hand-rolled, a shisha, a joint, an e-cigarette, an IQOS, a snus pouch, a cigar: these are seven different products with seven very different risk profiles. And yet, they often get lumped together.

This category sorts each type of product out for you: composition, level of risk, addictive potential, context of use, recent scientific position. You will see why hand-rolled tobacco is more toxic than industrial cigarettes, why the shisha is not as « mild » as people claim, where research stands on IQOS and heated tobacco, what vaping can really bring you to help quit, and why disposable puffs ended up banned in 2025.

The goal: to give you the real cards to choose or to quit, without simplifications and without militant alarmism.
