Peer review is religious scripture. Real science has been dead since 1960
Remember studies that proved nicotine was a-ok for ya?
Actually, you've made me curious now. I've never looked specifically at the effects of nicotine on the human body. I know that it can be highly addictive, but that's it. Smoking is obviously bad, as it sends warm smoke in your throat and lungs, physically damaging them and leaving an accumulating coat of residue in your respiratory system. But what about only nicotine itself? If it's ingested by a different medium like chewing gum or injection? I'd be curious to know the effects.
Its a stimulant. Basically backwards weed.
As a botanical potency varies wildly, from "light beer" to "single shot."
Pipe and Cigar tobacco isn't meant to be inhaled, the nicotine is absorbed through the soft pallete.
As a sensation, it's similar to the "first rush" of alcohol or caffeine, but without the disorentation of alcohol and without the jitters of Caffeine. You feel it mostly in your head.
Cigarettes i can't speak for
Only thing i care about is that cigarettes and their users smell terribly but at least they're also poisonous.
