They are talking about the use of nicotine patches for these diseases Smoking will never be good for the lungs that is not propaganda
Nicotine is addictive as it has properties similar to opiates. Those are just facts. But you can wear a patch without hurting yourself. All of those ads during the years you talk about patches were not available. COPD and lung cancer from cigarette smoking is a real thing.
Granted - sample size of 1 is insignificant. I smoked 1-1.5 packs a day from ~17 to 28 years of age. I'm now 63. So my FEAR was getting addicted to Nicotine patches. Withdrawal was miserable, but to my shock, I had absolutely no withdrawal symptoms, wearing (28 mg patch cut into 6 pieces - ~4mg) wearing up to 14 mg a day for a week. I tried a whole patch - and I got the nicotine buzz, and threw up. So even after a week of smaller doses, I just don't tolerate a whole patch.
But, I expected to feel the addiction again - It's MY opinion (and you can't have it) that the addiction is from Pyrazines that are intentionally added to the cigarettes to addict and kill their patients; as I was able to drop the patches cold turkey, without any issues at all.
American Indians smoked tobacco for millennia, and they weren't addicted.
Pyrazine? Flood of memories. Friends dad in 1988 or so was a machine operator instructor. The class was moving earth and uncovered barrells buried at an old RJ Reynolds site. The barrells contained pyradine. These guys were knee deep in it. There was zero information anywhere in the US. We wrote to Russia to get info on the human effects of this chemical as no one else had conducted studies. I recall getting a letter back, in Russian, with the sickle watermark. Interesting!
Not a very good example to state Indians smoked for millenia but were not addicted. How in the world would you know if each or any individual was addicted.....and that is literally showing what addiction is. Doing it over millenia. Lol.
See my comment up above for historical data on tobacco, addiction, etc. There are a bunch of articles with each one containing a ton of peer-reviewed real science that you might be shocked to read. Cheers.
Then pray tell, why does the cigarette industry spend millions on chemists and labor to add pyrazines to tobacco?
Ground up tobacco isn’t addictive enough by itself? Formaldehyde isn’t a natural byproduct of tobacco. Neither are heavy metals and many other ingredients. Why?
Inhaling smoke of any kind is bad for you. But the facts are that nicotine is no more addictive than caffeine. Do you know anyone addicted to tomatoes, potatoes or papayas? All of those and other common food plants contain nicotine. That said all mild stimulants can be a little addictive. It's the chemical additives that makes commercial tobacco products addictive.
Scientific fact nicotine has opiate like properties. Little stronger than caffeine. Potatoes and the like may have those properties but the starch they contain turns to sugar at a much higher level in your bloodstream causing addiction to sugar. You keep wanting it.
You realize you are attempting to state a scientific fact that is scientifically incorrect since the comparison is of an alkaloid substance to a chemical compound spectrum derived from inorganics.
Using this logic then I can state that it's a scientific fact that your comment has normy and uninformed like properties.
I’m stunned by what I’m reading in this thread. I’ve used cocaine, molly, shrooms, LSD, and weed, and a few other things, and NOTHING has been as hard to give up as vaping. Stimulants are addictive, period. And no matter what acute problems they can help with as a medicine, they should not became some staple of your daily diet. Over the last several years it had become abundantly clear that the very best thing you can do for your health, above literally anything else, is to regulate your circadian rhythm. Uppers and downers ruins your heart rate variability and wreak havoc on your sleep patterns and schedule. Stimulants can be great drugs in the medicine sense, meaning they can be used temporarily to help restore balance in certain situations but the problem is people basically make caffeine, nicotine, alcohol, etc. a part of their regular diet. The difference I’ve felt since quitting all of them is frankly beyond words. Stop peddling your addictions here in the name if freedom frens. It may be your right but drugs for recreational use are just plain bad for you. Full stop.
Who's talking about recreational use? This promotes a nicotine patch as a medicinal remedy and detox, both of which are temporary. Even using it as a protective against covid doesn't qualify for addiction, especially at the low (legal and OTC) levels mentioned.
That’s hardly how it’s being discussed in this thread.
Vaping is different than smoking cigarettes or using pipe tobacco. Have you tried those? Also, have you tried any of the synthetic nicotine sources? Additionally, have you tried other nicotine-laden plants listed on this thread and noticed any addiction issues?
I tried vaping. It sucks. Go to tobacco. Vaping was hard to quit. Tobacco I can quit anytime and have numerous times until I have to take it because of a chemical exposure and need to detox.
I don’t see the point of any of it outside a medicinal purpose maybe. I’ve tried zyns too. It’s all pointless stimulant.
thank you so much for the well measured reply. very much appreciated. It is true that nicotine is as addictive and has similar properties as opiates - like many things it's all in how we use them. Very glad to see such well thought responses as yours. I absolutely agree about the patches so far after reading and listening to everyone here as well. many thanks WAsWB' 👍🍻
Ever got addicted to eggplant? Eggplant has nicotine. Tomatoes.... all nightshades do. Traditionally tobacco was used to treat snake bites in horses and humans before antivenom was around. Do some research into it. Very interesting history.
