整合基于先前烟草行业内部文件的已发表研究中总结的卷烟公司对薄荷醇的理解和使用信息，以及基于人口的烟草使用调查和其他独立来源的结果。发表在烟草控制增刊上的论文，以及使用PubMed检索确定的论文。烟草公司塑造了消费者对薄荷香烟的看法。薄荷糖不仅仅是一种调味剂。卷烟公司利用薄荷醇掩盖刺激和提供感官效果的能力，使薄荷醇卷烟吸引年轻人和关注健康的吸烟者，部分原因是薄荷醇使低焦油卷烟更可口。与有针对性的营销相一致，年轻人、妇女和非裔美国人不成比例地吸食薄荷烟。尼古丁的成瘾作用似乎存在复杂的相互作用。烟草公司在超过90%的烟草产品中普遍添加薄荷醇，无论是否标有“薄荷醇”，这表明薄荷醇不仅仅是一种香料或品牌。薄荷醇赋予香烟感官特性，并与尼古丁有复杂的相互作用，影响吸烟行为，无论是否被感知，或者含有薄荷醇的香烟是否以“薄荷醇”销售。添加薄荷醇会增加香烟烟雾中的细颗粒，这对心脏病发作的风险有直接的不利影响。来自行业文件的信息，经独立科学文献证实，一致表明薄荷醇通过增加某些群体的吸烟开始和减少戒烟，增加了吸烟的人群危害。月经助长和增加吸烟，导致疾病和死亡。
To integrate information on cigarette companies' understanding and use of menthol as summarised in published research based on previously internal tobacco industry documents with results from large population-based surveys of tobacco use and other independent sources. Papers published in this supplement of Tobacco Control, together with papers identified using PubMed searches. Tobacco companies shaped consumer perceptions of menthol cigarettes. Menthol is not just a flavouring agent. Cigarette companies use menthol's ability to mask irritation and provide sensory effects to make menthol cigarettes appeal to youth and health-concerned smokers, in part because menthol makes low-tar cigarettes more palatable. Consistent with targeted marketing, youths, women and African Americans disproportionately smoke menthols. There appear to be complex interactions with addictive effects of nicotine. The ubiquitous addition of menthol by tobacco companies to over 90% of all tobacco products, whether labelled ‘menthol’ or not, demonstrates that menthol is not simply a flavour or brand. Menthol imparts sensory characteristics to cigarettes and has a complex interaction with nicotine that affects smoking behaviour whether it is perceived or not, or whether cigarettes containing menthol are marketed as ‘menthol’ or not. Adding menthol increases fine particles in cigarette smoke, which have immediate adverse effects on the risk of heart attack. Information from industry documents, confirmed by independent scientific literature, consistently demonstrates that menthol increases population harm from smoking by increasing initiation and reducing cessation in some groups. Menthol facilitates and increases smoking, which causes disease and death.
