General uses
Guar gum has many uses particularly in the food, cosmetic and pharmaceutical industries
where it is used as a thickener, binder, emulsifier and stabilizer. It is added to various foods
such as breakfast cereals, dairy products, gravy, processed vegetables, and baked goods.
Reported tobacco industry uses
The tobacco part of most cigarettes (i.e. the shredded brown interior) is a mixture of the
tobacco leaf and a paper-like product called ‘reconstituted tobacco'. Reconstituted
tobacco is made up of mashed tobacco stems and other parts of the tobacco leaf that
would otherwise be discarded. Tobacco manufacturers reportedly add guar gum (and its
derivatives) to help bind this reconstituted tobacco in cigarettes. Tobacco manufacturers
also use guar gum to prepare the cigarette paper that wraps the tobacco.
The amount of guar gum added to bind the tobacco can make up between 0.6-1.8 % of the
total weight of the tobacco used in one cigarette.

Harmful health effects
Guargum is generally regarded as safe for use in food and cosmetics. However, this does
not suggest it is safe when inhaled from smoking cigarettes. When a cigarette is burnt, the
guar gum present produces several toxic compounds that are either well-known to cause
cancer in humans (e.g. formaldehyde, benzo(a)pyrene and benzene) or thought to possibly
cause cancer in humans (e.g. acetaldehyde and styrene) as defined by the International
Agency for Research on Cancer (a leading expert cancer organisation).
Furthermore, the use of guar gum may be indirectly harmful due to the formation of
compounds called aldehydes (e.g. acetaldehyde), which can make cigarettes more
addictive by enhancing the addictive potential of nicotine. Aldehydes are very reactive and
produce other compounds such as the substance harman, which can also make cigarettes
more addictive due to its mood-enhancing effect on the brain.
Some of the compounds formed when guar gum is burnt have a distinctive flavour. For
example, diacetyl is one of the substances produced and has a butterscotch flavour, which
can make a cigarette more appealing due to the improved flavour of the smoke. 2-Furfural
is also formed and has an odour and taste that is described as sweet, woody, bready, and
caramel-like. Therefore, these compounds help make a cigarette more attractive by
imparting a pleasant flavour to the cigarette smoke. This can ultimately lead to more
cigarettes being smoked and thus greater exposure harm due to the toxic substances in
cigarette smoke

1) A process of making a reconstituted tobacco material, comprising mixing water and
sugar and heating to form a heated mixture of water and sugar establishing a liquid
flavorant mixing together tobacco particles, water, a gum binder,the heated mixture of
water and sugar, and the liquid flavorant to form a reconstituted tobacco mixture; and
forming the reconstituted tobacco mixture into a desired form of reconstituted tobacco
material.2 A process according to claim 1, wherein said forming comprises casting the

mixture into a film and drying the film into a reconstituted tobacco sheet.
3 A process according to claim 2, wherein said forming further comprises severing the
reconstituted tobacco sheet into strips or shreds.
4 A process according to claim 1 wherein the liquid flavorant is menthol in a liquid state.
5 A process according to claim 4, wherein the gum binder comprises guar and the
