Abstract
There is provided a tobacco product or a non-tobacco snuff product, including a magnesium carbonate, for conferring pH stability to the product and preventing growth of bacteria and fungi therein. The magnesium carbonate may contain hydroxide, oxide, and crystal water. The amount of magnesium carbonate ranges from 0.01 and 30% by weight of the dry bulk material. The product may be combined with additional pH regulators. The magnesium carbonate significantly increase the pH-stability in snus and non-tobacco snuff at the normal pH-range used in these products. The final product, which may be oral snuff or snus, or any tobacco-free snuff product, may be in particulate form, or shaped in a variety of forms. The product may be an oral product. The product may be packaged in a box, can or canister. Use of a magnesium carbonate for producing the products is also described.
