I tend to look at it a different way. I smoked 47 years and am quite healthy I take no meds and cook food the old fashioned way from scratch. Fast food is not a mainstay although I partake occasionally. Most of the people I knpw have meds up the wazoo because their DR told them it was needed and they are afraid to do anything different. Niicotine is in tomatoes and eggplant and quite a few other vegies. i really think most natural products are more beneficial than the Frankenstein meds advertsised on TV of which death is just one side effect. I really have no desire to eliminate nicotine from my diet at this point. Now the combustion aspect is a different story.
