What are the chemicals found in tobacco, without the additives, so basically right from the field?
Actually its Polonium that is found in the smoke from tobacco and it is NOT an additive, but naturally occurring and it is highly radioactive and quite toxic! Upon combustion plants will generate anywhere form hundreds to tens of thousands of different compounds depending on what chemicals are found in the plant undergoes combustion and at what temperature the combustion takes place. It also depends on how you smoke it,i.e a pipe, cigar, or with added paper and what type of paper. I can assure you of this even if just “pure” organically grown tobacco is smoked tens of thousands of chemicals are produced in varying quantities from barely detectable to highly concentrated, Some of those include cyanide and carbon monoxide both of which bind to hemoglobin and prevent the heme from being able to bind oxygen and cause you to suffocate on the cellular level!
