Sweden Leads Europe in Smoke-Free Innovation
Israa Farhan During a recent visit to Sweden, Sada El Balad met with several experts and industry professionals specializing in the development of smoke-free products and better alternatives to traditional cigarettes. The delegation toured multiple production sites and scientific facilities committed to research and innovation in less harmful nicotine alternatives and smoke-free alternatives to traditional cigarettes. One of the main stops was at the labs of Swedish Match—now a subsidiary of Philip Morris International (PMI)—which produces snus and nicotine pouches such as ZYN. Experts explained the rigorous quality assurance processes used to test these products, including their exposure to varying levels of heat, humidity, and pressure to simulate different global climates. This ensures the consistency and reliability of the product's nicotine delivery while maintaining its quality across international markets. Among those interviewed was Samuel Lundell, Chairman of the National Association of Snus Users in Sweden. He explained that snus and nicotine pouches offer adult smokers a less harmful alternative to smoking. These products still deliver nicotine but in a different form and with reduced risk. He pointed out that the design of nicotine pouches has evolved over time, with smaller, more discreet sizes that appeal especially to women, many of whom previously preferred the aesthetics of traditional smoking. The latest flavors and pouch designs aim to support female smokers in their journey to switch to less harmful alternatives, offering both ease of use and better health outcomes. Lundell added that the main mission of the association is to protect the rights of snus and nicotine pouch users. 'The association is fully independent,' he said, 'funded exclusively by its members. We do not accept financial support from tobacco companies or government institutions to preserve our freedom of speech and defend consumer rights effectively.' In another discussion, Dr. Anders Milton, former CEO and President of the Swedish Medical Association, emphasized that the number of smoking-related cancers is declining in Sweden among consumers of alternative smoking products, particularly nicotine pouches and snus. Several studies have found that the incidence of cancers in the human organs involved in alternative smoking (mouth, esophagus, lungs, and stomach) in Sweden is lower than in all other European countries, especially since there has been concern about the direct absorption of nicotine from these products through the mouth, passing through the throat and reaching the stomach. Milton continued, "We have not found any negative impact in the form of increased cancer rates among smokers of less harmful alternative products. Although smoking rates are generally low, the incidence of cancer remains lower than in all European countries, and lower than the average rates in the European Union." The visit concluded with a meeting with Patrik Hildingsson, Director Oral Category Communications at Philip Morris International. Hildingsson revealed that PMI has invested nearly $14 billion in scientific research since 2008 to develop and validate smoke-free, less harmful alternatives to traditional tobacco products. He noted that several of PMI's smoke-free products have received regulatory authorizations from health authorities in various countries, including the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA). He added that Swedish Match was acquired by Philip Morris International about two years ago, and is distinguished by its alternative products of snus and nicotine pouches. It operates three facilities in Sweden dedicated to the production and development of nicotine pouches and snus, including three manufacturing sites and three flagship stores serving a diverse customer base. These stores also support product customization and flavor innovation to better suit consumer preferences. 'Sweden has one of the lowest smoking rates in Europe,' Hildingsson concluded, 'and a large percentage of nicotine users have transitioned to smoke-free alternatives. This has had a tangible impact on public health, as Sweden now reports the lowest incidence of smoking-related diseases across the continent. read more Gold prices rise, 21 Karat at EGP 3685 NATO's Role in Israeli-Palestinian Conflict US Expresses 'Strong Opposition' to New Turkish Military Operation in Syria Shoukry Meets Director-General of FAO Lavrov: confrontation bet. nuclear powers must be avoided News Iran Summons French Ambassador over Foreign Minister Remarks News Aboul Gheit Condemns Israeli Escalation in West Bank News Greek PM: Athens Plays Key Role in Improving Energy Security in Region News One Person Injured in Explosion at Ukrainian Embassy in Madrid News Israeli-Linked Hadassah Clinic in Moscow Treats Wounded Iranian IRGC Fighters Arts & Culture "Jurassic World Rebirth" Gets Streaming Date News China Launches Largest Ever Aircraft Carrier News Ayat Khaddoura's Final Video Captures Bombardment of Beit Lahia Business Egyptian Pound Undervalued by 30%, Says Goldman Sachs Videos & Features Tragedy Overshadows MC Alger Championship Celebration: One Fan Dead, 11 Injured After Stadium Fall Lifestyle Get to Know 2025 Eid Al Adha Prayer Times in Egypt Arts & Culture South Korean Actress Kang Seo-ha Dies at 31 after Cancer Battle Arts & Culture Lebanese Media: Fayrouz Collapses after Death of Ziad Rahbani Sports Get to Know 2025 WWE Evolution Results

Sweden Records the Lowest Lung Cancer Rates in Europe with Just 5% Smoking Prevalence
Amna Abdelazem Women in Sweden Still Prefer Traditional Cigarettes .. and a National Association Advocates for Snus Consumers Sweden's Traditional Nicotine Habit Evolves into the World's Leading Smoke-Free Alternative: Snus 'Sada El Balad' participated in a three-day press tour in Stockholm, the capital of Sweden, to explore the country's advanced approach to smoke-free alternatives and its pioneering role in the transformation of nicotine consumption. The visit included a tour of Swedish Match's laboratories and historical museum, where the company's long heritage was showcased. Established over 150 years ago as a matchstick manufacturer, Swedish Match has since evolved to become a global leader in smoke-free products like snus and nicotine pouches. The museum also displayed vintage matchbox artwork from around the world, including designs created especially for Egypt. During the visit, Sada El Balad reviewed research on smoking rates in Sweden, which remain among the lowest in Europe, with only 5% of the population currently smoking. Most of these users have switched to less harmful alternatives like snus and nicotine pouches, making Sweden a model for smoke-free societies. One of the unique aspects of the Swedish model is the existence of a non-profit consumer association dedicated to supporting snus users and ensuring product transparency. The association plays an active role in overseeing the production conditions of snus and supporting research efforts, despite snus being legally approved in other countries such as the United States. According to researchers interviewed during the tour, Sweden has the lowest incidence in Europe of cancers typically linked to smoking, including lung, oral, esophageal, and stomach cancers. Experts attribute these figures to the country's low smoking rate, and more importantly, the wide adoption of smoke-free, less harmful alternatives like snus and nicotine pouches. These products have been authorized by several international regulatory bodies, most notably the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA). According to data reviewed by "Sada Elbalad", the percentage of women smoking traditional smoking products (cigarettes) is higher than the percentage of men smoking them in Sweden. Sweden has a long history of dealing with alternative smoke-free products designed in various forms, the history of which was examined during a visit to the Swedish Match Museum in the capital. It was a prevalent type used by Swedes several centuries ago, and work was done to develop it as a less dangerous alternative to cigarettes in the recent period. read more Analysis- Turkey Has 0 Regional Allies...

Egypt and UAE team up on major humanitarian project to alleviate Gaza's thirst crisis
Ambassador Sultan Al Shamsi, Assistant Minister of Foreign Affairs for the UAE, stated that Egypt and the UAE are cooperating to support the people of the Gaza Strip, particularly in supplying water to the enclave. During a phone interview with the Sada El Balad channel, he added that over the past four days, 143 trucks carrying food, medical supplies, and water have entered Gaza. He further explained that there are joint efforts between Egypt and the UAE to desalinate and pump water to the people of Gaza. 'We are working to ensure water reaches the people of Gaza and provide a free service to support and assist citizens,' he said. 'This project provides up to 2 million gallons daily, which is enough for more than one million people a day, and we are working to extend the line to central Gaza.' Ambassador Al Shamsi also noted that there is a UAE field hospital in Gaza and another in El Arish, which operates in coordination with Egypt. He added that there are currently 2,600 Palestinian patients and companions in the UAE. He stressed that the Gaza Strip is being continuously supported with all necessary medical supplies. 'The Rafah crossing remains open [from the Egyptian side], and there are Emirati warehouses to support the people of Gaza. A ship carrying over 7,000 tons of aid is also set to arrive in the coming days,' he continued. The Israeli army had previously announced that, under the guidance of the political leadership, it approved the UAE's initiative to lay a water line from a desalination plant in Egypt to the Al-Mawasi area in the Gaza Strip. This comes after the UAE announced the implementation of its largest humanitarian project to date to supply desalinated water from Egypt to southern Gaza as part of its 'Gallant Knight 3' operation. This is being done via a new pipeline measuring 315 mm in diameter and 6.7 kilometers in length, connecting the Emirati desalination plant in Egypt to the displacement areas between the governorates of Khan Yunis and Rafah in the southern Strip. The project aims to provide 15 liters of desalinated water per day for each individual, serving approximately 600,000 affected residents, especially given that more than 80% of Gaza's water facilities have been destroyed by the recent war. The UAE announced the project as an urgent humanitarian response to the severe thirst crisis in Gaza. It reflects the UAE's consistent approach to supporting the Palestinian people under exceptional circumstances. The UAE's efforts also include supporting Gaza's water sector by establishing desalination plants, supplying municipalities with water tankers, drilling and maintaining wells, and repairing water networks, with a focus on improving access to clean water in the most affected areas of the southern Strip, particularly between Khan Yunis and Rafah. This project is expected to help alleviate the water crisis faced by Gaza's residents and reflects regional and international cooperation in confronting the escalating humanitarian situation in the enclave.
