Nicotine by itself isn't any worse than caffeine. I hate that puritanical American bulldozers right and left, call nicotine pouches and vapes tobacco products. Shut the fuck up nerds. Pop a zynn and watch some TV.
I am of your same opinion about nicotine, but I will say that the pouches are making my gum receed noticeably after about 1 year of daily use... trying to switch to gum now
I think that's my biggest fear about using them. I think I'll keep an eye out for that at well. If it starts to happen, I'll probably just quit nicotine. I can't put stuff in my lungs and I hate gum.
nicotine independently damages the endothelium (innermost lining of blood vessels) leading to stroke heart attack poor wound healing after injury or surgery etc. even without tobacco
probably why it damages gums
not worth the very small benefits
