It’s a common misconception that because to***co products like beedi, gutka, and mava are "natural," they are somehow safer than ci******es. 🚭

In this video, Dr. T. Mansoor Ali (To***co Cessation Specialist) breaks down why "natural" doesn't mean harmless. These products are packed with toxins that can lead to:

- Severe Oral Changes: Damage to the oral mucosa and gums.
- Mouth Cancer: Long-term use significantly increases the risk of developing life-threatening cancers.
- Irreversible Health Issues: Whether smoked or smokeless, the chemical impact is devastating.

As the saying goes: "Even if you take a little bit of poison, poison is still poison."
