The fact that tobacco, a favorite product of mankind for centuries ago, caused lung cancer and various cancers began to be officially published in academic reports by medical scientists in the United States and the United Kingdom around 1956. In 1964 and 1979, The publication of "Tobacco and Health" reports that the detoxification of tobacco disguised as man's favorite has become wider and varied. Knowing that smoking is harmful to health due to exposure to various diseases, the reason for smoking is due to the nicotine "addictive drug" contained in tobacco. According to the World Health Organization (WHO), nicotine is defined as "a substance that is psychologically dependent and continues to look for drugs and physically dependent to stop taking it and harm its physical and mental health." It is classified as a highly toxic drug so that it is lethal if it is injected into the human body at once. One cigarette contains around 1.0 mg of nicotine.

To date, various types of healthy cigarettes have been developed. For example, there was a case where tobacco was prepared by mixing edible ginseng and health herb with yellow leaf tobacco, but there was a problem that nicotine content, which is a poisonous addictive drug, was not reduced at all. There was no nicotine in cigarettes made from tobacco leaves in the form of tobacco, but it was not investigated what harms the human body when inhaling this cigarette with smoke. Due to the different flavors and aromas, there was a problem in that it could not fit the taste of existing tobacco lovers tamed with tobacco flavor.

Accordingly, the present inventors have been working to develop tobacco which is not addicted to nicotine, and mixes leaf tobacco and green tea leaf, green leaf, wormwood, mugwort or ginseng extract, which have been treated with special treatment, and green tea leaf, green leaf, mugwort or ginseng Tobacco filler prepared by the same taste and aroma as the existing tobacco, but the content of nicotine is significantly reduced compared to the conventional tobacco, found that it is not addictive to complete the present invention.

An object of the present invention is a tobacco filler formulated with extracts extracted from leaf tobacco and green tea leaves, tofu leaves, mugwort or ginseng and green tea leaves, tofu leaves, mugwort or ginseng with harmful nicotine removed through a special treatment, and a method for preparing the same To provide.

In order to achieve the above object, in the present invention, green tea leaf, tofu leaf, mugwort or ginseng extract is applied and nicotine removed 70 to 97% by weight and fine tea leaf, tofu leaf, mugwort or ginseng 3 to 30% by weight The present invention provides a nicotine-free tobacco filler which is mixed with the additive used in the manufacture of tobacco and added in an amount of about 0 to 4% by weight, and a method for producing the same.

Hereinafter, the present invention will be described in detail.

In the present invention, there is first provided a method for producing a tobacco filler from which nicotine has been removed, which manufacturing process comprises;

1) removing nicotine from the leaf tobacco and then cutting it (first step);

2) extracting the extract from green tea leaves, tofu leaves, mugwort or ginseng (second step);

3) spraying and applying the extract extracted in the second step to the nicotine-removed leaf tobacco cut in the first step (drying step 3); And

4) mixing the leaf tobacco prepared in the third step with fine green tea leaves, tofu leaves, mugwort or ginseng, and adding the additives used in the manufacture of tobacco (fourth step).

Hereinafter, the manufacturing method will be described in more detail.

To remove nicotine in the first step, wash well-grown leaf tobacco, steam it with steam, dry it, load it with edible alcohol for 5 to 15 hours to remove nicotine of the fat-soluble component, and dry it again, and then use a high pressure water heater. This method is to remove water-soluble nicotine by boiling water at 120 ~ 130 ℃ for more than 2 hours, and then press the remaining leaf tobacco again with a high pressure press to separate, extract and remove residual nicotine and toxic receptors.

In addition, in the first step, after removing the nicotine as described above, after the natural fermentation for 20 to 30 hours in a constant temperature and humidity room of 70 ~ 90 ℃ temperature and 40 ~ 60% relative humidity after removing the nicotine leaf tobacco 1 Subsequently, an unfinished tobacco filler is produced.

Then, in the second step, the green tea leaves, chopped leaves, mugwort or ginseng are washed clean with clear water, and the extract is extracted by hot boiling water for about 1 hour.

Next, in the third step, the extract extracted in the second step is spray-coated and dried on the unfinished cigarette filler prepared in the first step.

Next, in the fourth step, the well-grown green tea leaves, tofu leaves, mugwort or ginseng are washed with clear water, steamed and dried, and then cut into 0.7 mm size and mixed into the filler prepared in the third step. General additives used in the manufacture of tobacco are added to produce nicotine-free tobacco fillers of the present invention.

In the above production method, leaf tobacco is 70 to 97% by weight; Green tea leaves, tofu leaves, mugwort or ginseng, 3 to 30% by weight; Additives used in the manufacture of tobacco is preferably used 0 to 4% by weight.

General additives used in the manufacture of tobacco in the production method is selected from glycerin, fructose, propylene glycol, colelis, and honey, may be added alone or in combination.

The present invention also provides a tobacco filler prepared by the above method. Tobacco filler of the present invention, green tea leaf, tofu leaf, mugwort or ginseng extract is applied and nicotine removed 70 ~ 97% by weight and fine tea leaf, tofu leaf, mugwort or ginseng 3-30% by weight is mixed Herein, the nicotine-free tobacco filler containing 0 to 4% by weight of additives used in manufacturing tobacco is added.

Hereinafter, the present invention will be described in detail by examples. However, the following examples are merely to illustrate the invention and the present invention is not limited by the examples.

Example 1

They were completely separated, extracted and removed.

After extracting and extracting fat-soluble and water-soluble nicotine and virulent dark brown extracts from the leaf tobacco by the above process, the remaining yellow-brown leaf tobacco was naturally fermented in a constant temperature and humidity room at 80 ° C. and 50% relative humidity for 24 hours, and then dried leaves were around 0.7 mm. An unfinished filler was prepared by rinsing (cutting) the nicotine-removed cuff cigarette.
