Tobacco vs Cigarettes. Same nasty effects?!

Most commercially produced cigarettes are 'fortified' with a long list of chemicals for various reasons, taste, burn, and to enhance the addiction. Pure tobacco, while still unhealthy to smoke, can be and is often substantially less toxic than cigarettes. Note, ingesting smoke regularly from any source carries health risks. Using 'bulk' tobacco to roll one's own cigarettes can result in more smoke being ingested due to the lack of a filter. This tobacco is similar to that used for cigars or pipes. You'll find cigar and pipe smokers with tobacco addictions far less often.

Shouldnt be much different unless you use alot more tobacco than normal cigarettes have :)

its supposed to be worse, unless you have a filter, then it is about the same.

ive heard its better then cigs from the gas station.

plus rolling them yourself is alot more fun
