🧪 99% LESS TOXICANTS THAN A CIGARETTE: What Does This Mean for GEEK Nicotine Pouches?

Designed to provide a modern, smoke-free nicotine experience, GEEK nicotine pouches have lately shown to emit up to 99% less toxicants than a cigarette. In scientific terms, then, what does that actually mean? Let's deconstruct it.

🔍 What is "99% Less Toxicants Than a Cigarette"?

Laboratory tests comparing the emissions from a typical cigarette with the components in GEEK nicotine pouches form the basis for this picture. The comparison centres on eight main toxicants found in cigarette smoke that are well-known to be detrimental.

Important remark: GEEK pouches are not 99% less dangerous. Nicotine, an addictive chemical, nevertheless finds presence in GEEK pouches. They do not, however, burn or emit smoke, which greatly lessens the discharge of harmful byproducts.

How was the "99% Less Toxicants" figure computed?

Comparative lab analysis involving a scientific standard reference tobacco (1R6F) for baseline toxicant levels; a range of GEEK nicotine pouches (varied by nicotine strength, size, flavour, and base composition); tests conducted on 8 out of 9 WHO-prioritised toxic agents typically found in cigarette smoke; all pouches were tested five times and averaged.• An outside accredited laboratory conducted the tests.

Because carbon monoxide is a combustion by-product and GEEK pouches are tobacco-free and heat-free, this toxicant isn't produced and isn't assessed.

Key Toxicants: GEEK versus Cigarettes

❓ Why omitted Carbon Monoxide?

Mostly generated via combustion, as occurs when a cigarette burns, carbon monoxide (CO) GEEK pouches do not burn, so they do not release CO. That is why this comparison study did not measure it.

✅ Why It Matters; GEEK nicotine pouches provide a better substitute for smoking; there is no tobacco, no combustion, hence far less dangerous by-products.Independent testing reveals up to 99% less toxicants than that of cigarette smoke.This helps GEEK's aim to provide adult consumers looking for substitutes with next-generation nicotine solutions.

📌 Main Learning Points• GEEK nicotine packets expose up to 99% less toxicants than cigarettes.• Health authorities advised reduction of eight main hazardous chemicals based on testing results.There is no tobacco, no smoke, no ash; only controlled, clean nicotine delivery.For adult nicotine users who wish to avoid the toxicants in cigarette smoke, GEEK pouches offer a safer substitute even if they are not risk-free.
