Winston cigarettes

Nothing exists without history. The same is about cigarettes. I'd like to give you some information about Winston cigarettes and its history.

More than half a century - in 1954 - the first commercial American cigarettes with filter appeared under the Winston brand.

For its creation it was tested more than 250 sorts of specially developed cigarettes, the strength of which was chosen on the principle when the filter is not to produce the sense of "lightness" of the tobacco.

In the basis of cigarettes' blending there is a very tasty mixture from burley and light western and Virginian sorts of tobacco. It has to be mentioned that a unique flavor of Winston cigarettes is achieved by the modern filtration technologies, due to which at the end of the last century the lighter variants of cigarettes were added at the brand's line.

The world recognition of Winston cigarettes is affirmed by the fact that the brand is relevant at 60 world's markets.

"The centre of smoking" in brain is found

American researchers found the region in the brain, where the smoking habit is "settled". The matter concerns so called Ireland of Reil. It looks like a little pyramidal closed lobule edged by frontal, parietal and temporal lobes.

The Ireland of Reil is still understood incompletely. It's considered, that this part of the brain is answer for emotions, speech and pronunciation, and also controls the body functions.

Studying changes in different parts of the brain after the stroke, specialists found out that people with cerebral lesions in the Ireland of Reil region quit smoking cigarettes easily.

According to ITAR-TASS, scientists established that it's the exact place where the signal of smoking desire is generated.

The desire for smoking is controlled also by the frontal cortex, which answers for deliberate conduct and decision-making. It tries to hold the Ireland of Reil signals, though the cortex signals give way to the pressure from brain's depths.
