    So - are we getting it or are we not - nicotine

    Is that a Desert Eagle, I love that gun. One shot and you have the range all to yourself. Sounds like thunder, kicks like a mule.

    What's under your lip/in your nose right now?

    My uneducated impression is that the General White Wintergreen Has more Wintergreen flavor than most and it seems to last a lot longer than most of the others I've tried. This will probably be one of my staples.

    Nic absorption with snus

    I guess it's too late in the year to think. It is good to know that the snus is fairly equal to cigarettes as far as absorbtion. The really hard one to figure out would be vaping. Now that wouild take some thought. Maybe next year I'll think about it. It's your fault TV, you are the one...

    Nic absorption with snus

    So an 8mg portion only yields less than 4mg of nicotine absorbed. I'm trying to translate that into cigarette equilivant.

    Nic absorption with snus

    After reading this again I think I finally got it. So I won't be able to detect the uptake and know that I need something stronger of something additional? I guess I will have to develop a standard routine to follow daily. If I get a craving I will know I need more? This is more complicated...

    Hey, that sounds like a good plan.

    So - are we getting it or are we not - nicotine

    Sounds like good advice OTD. Later on tonight I might not agree with you but you probably won't remember it anyway. Happy new year to you and to everyone else. Can we vote in a new govenment next week?

    So - are we getting it or are we not - nicotine

    This new world, snus, is going to take me a little time to level out with. I don't know if I'm lucky or not with my body's sensitivity to nicotine. It would just be easier for me to mindlesly vape away like I used to do while using snus. But I have already been warned that my body doesn't...

    What's under your lip/in your nose right now?

    I'm doing pretty good OTD. I think I'm ready for this year to be over. Lots of hope ahead. Those adjustments are always necessary, glad he's so close to you.

    What's under your lip/in your nose right now?

    Oh man, sounds like you need one of those "Morning After" pills. Sorry you are having a bad time OTD. I think it's all downhill from here though. Hope you get to feeling better soon.

    What's under your lip/in your nose right now?

    I can only imagine what vaping 48 would feel like. My body doesn't tolerate that much nicotine right now. I am vaping much less than I was. It doesn't taste the same when I'm doing snus. The General white is the best tasting wintergreen I've tasted yet.

    Nicotine, too much can cause GERD in some people.

    I'm not sure what connection you are looking for here. There's no compareson between Nitroglycerine and VG. If you need to take Nitro the side effects are worth the life saving benefits of Nitro. There are some unplesant side effects when taking Nitro. That why you should take it only if...

    What's under your lip/in your nose right now?

    Thanks Wiz, I don't think I will be hard core vaping any more. Glad you got home to your stuff. You at least had a backup handy.

    What's under your lip/in your nose right now?

    I think that the General white portion wintergreen is a keeper. The taste seems to last longer than some of the others. I've tried all 8 different portions now and I have to make my first real order. Maybe I'll get a calendar this time.

    What's under your lip/in your nose right now?

    Just put in a General White portion Wintergreen. It's got a pretty strong flavor when first put in. Been doing pretty good with the snus. I haven't gone through one battery change on my Prodigy all day. The hit on the Prodigy is much higher after using a portion. It's not tasting the same...

    Nic absorption with snus

    Wow TV, that's thought provoking. So some time after you take the portion out the nic is still slowly being released into your system?

    Nicotine, too much can cause GERD in some people.

    Absolutely! Everytime I get chest pains my heart is the first thing that comes to mind. Most heart attack victims that die usually waited too long to ask for help. Denial is usually the reason they wait.

    Nicotine, too much can cause GERD in some people.

    That is the main message I wanted to get out. Because it mimicks a heart attack the glass of water is a good test. Drinking a full glass of cool water will have no effect on a heart attack (angina). It will releave a GERD attack. Both conditions require attention but the heart attack requires...

    Nicotine, too much can cause GERD in some people.

    I don't gulp when I inhale. I take the vapor into my mouth and gradually breath in. Now there are many ways to get nicotine down to your esophagus saliva absorbs the nicotine from your vapor and snus. My GERD is caused by acid reflux which is caused by the top valve muscle of my stomach (I...

    What's under your lip/in your nose right now?

    I'm very encouraged with my snus experience. I am feeling better than I was just a couple of days ago. I did smoke 2 cigs today but I didn't need them and they sure tasted like crap. I haven't even vaped much either. It will probably take a few days for me to get the feel of what's going on...
