Tobacco plant is known to easily absorb heavy metals from soil accumulate them in leaves. Part of these metals is transferred by the smoke into the human body, where they accumulate, damage the organs (mainly kidney and liver) and act as promoters in conjuction with carcinogens. Application of the essential elements can be effective in the prevention of toxicity and curative manner against the negative effects of toxic heavy metals. Reducing the harmful health effects of tobacco smoke is one of the major tasks of our research. Essential elements, first of all Zn and Fe, were added in an artificial way on tobacco-cut so that these elements should pass by the smoke to the smokers' bodies.
