Interesting well written BUT Nicotine addiction kills….and it’s an ugly painful way to go - very very very difficult circular habit to stop
Nicotine is not the killer. Doesn't cause cancer. It's the junk in the smoke.
Yep! It's medicinal and prevents Covid.
Tobacco is the best remedy for stopping the pain from a bee or wasp sting.
Pesticides, herbicides and additives. I am fond of cigars but the only cigar maker that only uses organic tobacco is Valencia. Quite pricey but worth the avoidance of all the tru poisons.

Nicotine is Def a killer, I use it as an insecticide regularly in agriculture.
Welcome to the term dosage, alcohol kills bacteria but you only ever see major health issues with heavy drinking.
Sure, vitamin C can also kill with high dose. I'm not a fan of banning anything, free market that shit!! But I've only seen intense addiction from nicotine use, nothing in between.
Did you know “water poisoning” is a real thing and people die every year of it? It’s also referred to as water intoxication and water toxicity.
The LD50 for Tylenol is 4000mg for the average adult, and caffeine is actually incredibly lethal, at 150-200mg per KG, and in some cases in the 50mg per KG range.
People have died from too much oxygen, water, heat and cold. What are we talking about team?
Life is a killer, sadly. I work in chemicals, stuff I handle has a very low LD50. In general, nicotine can kill just like anything else.
Yes. OSHA has an MSDS(Material Data Safety Sheet) for H2O.

It's radioactive polonium in rock phosphate fertilizer taken up by the tobacco plant and deposited in the leaves that causes cancer in smokers.
You know, I've always wondered how that's the case for tobacco and literally no other foodstuff given it's not going to be tobacco farmers purposely ordering the cancer fertilizer.
Well cigarette smoking is down and cancer is way up…. So ya.
Tobacco absorbs polonium easily. Rock phosphate is considered organic. The presence of polonium in tobacco leaves has been swept under the rug.
I am interested to hear the downvoter's information. I already knew it when I heard it from a cardiovascular specialist speaking to a group of >70 other specialists at a cardiovascular center of a major hospital. He said the latest research shows lung cancer in smokers is from radioactive isotopes in the leaf. None of them batted an eye. I thought this information needs to be made public and the doctors who know are responsible for making an effort to do that.

Quitting nicotine was rough. 6 weeks of the worst sleep of my life, not to mention the effect on mood during the day..for me the process of quitting was enough to deter me from picking up the habit back up.
Nicotine is not addictive nor is it a carcinogen, it's the other crap in cigarettes.
Nicotine does not kill. Has many many medical benefits . What kills are the chemicals used in tobacoo products. Nicotine Patches offer low dose of nicotine have many benefits for your brain and immune system. They don't like nicotine because it is medicinal and now that companies are selling pure nicotine without all the deadly addictive chemicals, our deep state goons need it gone. Also it kills covid and boosts your immune system...fights alzheimers, helps people with MS..the list goes on. Nicotine is not the problem when it comes to addiction.
