A process, and product which uses the process, for reducing tar and nicotine in cigarettes, whereby a novel emulsified complex of Sterotex/permanganate is incorporated into a cigarette. The complex displays a synergistic reaction having a dose response relationship permitting linear adjustment to reduce more than 85% of the tar and nicotine in the mainstream smoke of a cigarette. Chemical analysis of the smoke condensate demonstrates the oxidation of nicotine to nicotinic acid, a B6 vitamin.
