I wouldn't recommend anyone who isn't already a nicotine user start. Very addictive and expensive. It also elevates blood pressure and can contribute to cardiovascular disease. If you're already a smoker/vaper or chew tobacco, the gum is almost certainly a safer alternative (when used correctly, of course).
I would second this recommendation, all this talk about it having an antiparasitic action while it may true, it doesn't mean you should take it every day, or even every week. In reality of course it has an antiparasitic action, it's been used in rat poison and as an insecticide, and it should only be used to combat an infection not preventative.
