Rokok berfilter arang
Explanation:
Beberapa produsen rokok masa kini memperkenalkan filter yang mengandung saringan dari arang, dengan klaim bahwa saringan ini dapat mengurangi unsur racun pada asap rokok yang dihisap. Tapi hal ini masih menjadi kontroversi. Artikel dapat dilihat pada 2 link di bawah.

-=-=-=-=-=-
Some cigarettes today boast the inclusion of a "charcoal filter" in addition to the more common dense, synthetic fiber filters seen in almost all filter cigarettes. Manufacturers claim that charcoal filters, which contain bits of charcoal embedded within the fiber filters, reduce certain toxins in the smoke. But no evidence exists that these cigarettes are significantly less dangerous for the user.
