ABSTRACT:
A substantially pure Vitamin E type compound is added to tobacco for a smokeable or smokeless tobacco product to achieve less irritation and antioxidant benefits. In a preferred embodiment, a substantially pure "dry" powdered ester analog of Vitamin E, such as Vitamin E acid succinate or spray dried Vitamin E acetate, is mixed directly with the tobacco during the manufacturing process. These Vitamin E analogs can also be inserted into a cigarette filter, holder and/or paper, either in powdered form or in microencapsulated form. Although not preferred, a common oily form of Vitamin E can be used in the present invention so long as it does not ruin the appearance and function of the smokeable or smokeless tobacco product.
