American Tobacco companies added arsenic to intensify the addition to
nicotine way beyond trace amounts. I was not talking about the common trace
elements. Any way not a subject for here it was just passing comment to note
natural foods are much better for us.

"Just about every food we have contains arsenic. Like a large number of 
other chemical elements in the soil, it is taken up by plants and as a 
result it is present in tobacco leaves. You will get traces of arsenic 
as you will other metals, such as copper and lead. But the levels are so 
unbelieveably low that the chances of them having an effect on a human 
is stretching the imagination. To kill somebody with arsenic you have to 
give them a lot for a very long time and this isn't a lot of arsenic, 
these are traces".
