      I have a Question .I never smoked, aside from bumming a cigarette twice or 3 times a year off someone at a really fun outside event. And I've never dipped. But at the age of 36 I found and started using the nicotine lozenge. It seemed the most practical, low dose and safest way to use, after for months I now use them quite frequently throughout the day. My question is, how much less casonagenic is the lozenge compared to zin or tobacco dip. The mint moves around in my mouth and doesn't really sit in the same spot so it seems like it would be less likely to cause the irritaional form of cancer.

    Retired dentist! I diagnosed three patients in 30 years with squamous cell carcinoma. All three smoked and drank alcohol in excess. I have dipped since college. Saw many parents who also dipped. Zero issues but I did advise to relocate each session around the month. I now use Zyn and love them. Peter Attia and Tucker Carlson are two who also use this product. Both have been on TH-cam interviews discussing their preference for Nicotine pouches

      true, oral cancer is hyoer rare. A Karolinska Institute stury invoving 418 000 Swedish males followed for 30 years equaling 9.2 million life years concluded a total of 600 oral cancer cases and the normal use of "suns ie 4 cans or less per week, actually reduced the risk of oral cancer with 35% as compared to never-snus users. Quote: No association between moist oral snuff (snus) use and oral cancer: pooled analysis of nine prospective observational studies
      PMID: 32466721 DOI: 10.1177/1403494820919572
      Abstract
      Aims: Worldwide, smokeless-tobacco use is a major risk factor for oral cancer. Evidence regarding the particular association between Swedish snus use and oral cancer is, however, less clear. We used pooled individual data from the Swedish Collaboration on Health Effects of Snus Use to assess the association between snus use and oral cancer. Methods: A total of 418,369 male participants from nine cohort studies were followed up for oral cancer incidence through linkage to health registers. We used shared frailty models with random effects at the study level, to estimate hazard ratios (HRs) and 95% confidence intervals (CIs) adjusted for confounding factors. Results: During 9,201,647 person-years of observation, 628 men developed oral cancer. Compared to never-snus use, ever-snus use was not associated with oral cancer (adjusted HR 0.90, 95% CI: 0.74, 1.09). There were no clear trends in risk with duration or intensity of snus use, although lower intensity use (⩽ 4 cans/week) was associated with a reduced risk (HR 0.65, 95% CI: 0.45, 0.94). Snus use was not associated with oral cancer among never smokers (HR 0.87, 95% CI: 0.57, 1.32). Conclusions: Swedish snus use does not appear to be implicated in the development of oral cancer in men.

I'll go months without vaping/smoking but working a blue collar job (in the south as well) and having a couple of friends who does it makes it 10 times harder to stop. I think it's just a mindset change. If you are really ready to stop, have the mindset that you aren't a vaper anymore. Keep in mind that YOU are in control, not a craving formed from some chemical.

    Man, I just switched over to zyn/rogue pouches from the disposable vapes like posh and sheesh. And it’s been 6 days on the pouches and I’m still craving the vape because the oral fixation of smoking something, but it is getting better. Now these pouches are really irritating the inside of my bottom lip and not so much my gums. I feel like the long cut chew I used to do like skoal and Copenhagen back in the day didn’t eat my lip up this bad. I’m doing 6-10 pouches a day. I want to get off of nicotine completely but this has been a battle for over half my life and I just turned 30.

      Totally agree. I find it sad that he puts all vaping under his "bad" umbrella but does not do the same for gums etc. People who are vaping nic salts from reputable companies is definitely safer if done so on a safe device such as Caliburn or Xros for instance. I hope cigarette smokers are not discouraged and will try vaping to get off cigarettes ( I just started vaping to quit a 1 1/2 pack a day cigarette habit.) Another note regarding vape juice. Synthetic nicotine is WAY safer for you and a lot of salt nic vape juice is going to that. I just learned this on a Ben Greenfield TH-cam video/podcast with Ben Katz. Anyway, I hope a lot of people see your comment.

    Nasal snuff (European not so much American) has really helped me kick most every other form of nicotine. I encourage anyone trying to at least drop the nicotine levels way down check it out and do your own snooping. There is obviously many reasons why it seems wild to put powdered tobacco product in your nose but with a good nasal hygiene routine and getting the technique down if really the most enjoyable form of tobacco I have ever used and I have used quite literally all of them. It is low nicotine content, big hit and no you don't snort it like other substances just a gentle sniff places it in the lower part of the nose and you blow it out when you feel like. Ill shut up now, try it its helped me greatly.

    If you look purely at the nitrosamine, aldehyde, and overall toxic chemical content, nicotine pouches are by far the safest, even when compared to Snus and nicotine gum. It would take 30 Zyns or 300 ON pouches to equal the same nitrosamine and formaldehyde content as a single Snus pouch. Nicotine gums have also been found to contain trace amounts of radioactive metals. They don't contain formaldehyde, but they do contain a whole host of other toxic chemicals
    MJ smoke also contains many of the same carcinogens as cigarettes. However, it also contains tons of anti carcinigens that help to cancel out those cancer causing chemicals. That's why most studies on smoking MJ have not found a significant risk of lung cancer. It still damages your lungs in other ways, but the risk of malignancies is very low when compared to smoking tobacco products.

      That’s wonderful hope you’re still going strong. I’m so anxious to quit.. I went out and purchased my “quit kit”… gum.. candy and snacks.. two vapes left.. I have a lot to get through this week and not good time to quit but after these two I have to try and I think cold turkey is the only way for me. It was so much easier in the past to quit cigs but vaping, because it’s so easy and more constant it’s like an emotional codependency.. feels like an extra limb at this point 😂

Slowly switched to pouches and ended up doing 15-25 pouches per day. These pouches are by far the worst!

    I'm 26 became addicted to 🌽 at 9 or 10, smoking trees and drinking regularly at 14. Popping pills, doing psychedelics at 16. Started snorting coke and smoking cigarettes at 18. Became a heroin & crack addict at 22. Continued to smoke trees and drink regularly until I got hooked on heroin. I'm a year clean from all drugs except nicotine as of Jan 1st. Trying to lose weight and get healthy and vaping was making my chest hurt before I ever started working out. I picked up a zyn today in an attempt to quit vaping, I'd really like to be done with nicotine altogether. After getting clean I finally realized I have an extremely addictive personality. Don't know whether bi polar disorder, ADHD and childhood trauma were the main reasons but I'm sure they didn't help along with losing my father from cancer at 6 years old.

    I agree that disposable vapes should be more transparent about the ingredients on their packaging. It baffles me that disposable companies are not required to clearly display the amount of nicotine in mg and people still use them. Then again neither do cigarette companies openly show nicotine levels on theirs.
    At least with vaping, there is a hobbyist market that use reusable devices and source their own fluid. Here vapers are in much better control of the type of e-liquid they use in their vapes and they are well aware of what they are actually vaping and the exact nicotine levels inside of it.

    You keep saying "I think". How much of this is based on research and how much is this just your "opinion"? There is some good information out there for example on the NHS website on all the myths on vaping and what you're saying sounds like a lot of these myths. For example that vaping a whole disposable is worse than smoking 2 cigarettes a day - not true. You do have long term studies, even if they don't go as far back as for smoking. We do have enough science to be able to make a statement on if vaping is extensively less harmful than smoking cigarettes. I encourage you to quote more credible sources rather than talking about a medical subject with - as you admit - your opinion, rather than actual science. To be very frank, I don't care about your "opinion". I care about facts. And I care about people who can't make the distinction between opinions and facts, to not be fed with misinformation. This isn't an attack, I hope you take this as constructive feedback. Nonetheless, thank you for trying to put more information out there regarding this important topic, I do appreciate it.

    I started Zyn a few days ago to self-medicate. I was tired and irritable and not very motivated. The rush and then the calm afterwards were both very helpful for what I was looking for, but I wanted to keep the feeling longer.
    Then on the third day, (I had done 2, then 3, then 4 each day when I started.) I started feeling my heart pumping, noticeably, while just sitting. My extremeties were cold and I was beggining to feel anxious as well. It wore off and I felt normal and woke up the next day in a somewhat chill state. I took only one pouch the next day when I woke up to avoid it doing that again. Was going fine, then I had a big meal 2 hours after my pouch was done. I then became hyper lethargic and then once that eased up I could feel my heart going hard again and this time I was in a mild state of panic, probably a panic attack. Im not sure what is what, because I felt none of these the first two days of trying nicotine, but the 3rd and 4th days were not fun. Day 5 now and Im unsure what I should do. I hate the idea that Im damaging my vascular health. But it really did help my mood in the way I wanted.

      From my experience and on the contrary to what ive been told and from videos I’ve watched, the nicotine delivery from cigars is very weak compared to cigarettes. I can’t speak on the health effects, because I’m not a doctor, but I will say that quitting can be done, but you’ll need to space them out. Go as long as you possibly can without smoking them and restrict it to nighttime use only. That should help bring the level of nicotine you require down to the level in your chosen cigar (different brands and offerings have different levels). From there, you would gradually taper off by even more so spacing out smoking sessions and reducing your nicotine intake.
