Just some information for you

I think its kind of funny that assuming you are correct and nicotine is an addictive poison that the FDA has found that it is safe to put this same addictive poison in gum and patches and use this "addictive" poison as a way to get people to quit smoking. And what is even more amusing is that noone seems to get addicted to nicotine gum or patches. So you take something that the FDA claims is addictive and give it to people who are addicted to it in order to get them to stop being addicted to it. That is basically what you and the rest of the propagandists are saying and that makes no sense whatsoever. It would be like giving someone cocain to break their addiction to ........ Something just doesnt add up here.

Nicotine is not poisonous to humans. In fact there are studies that show it is actually good. Nicotine Fact - Nicotine Is Good For You
But most everything else in a cigarette is poisonous. The reasons for people to use the patch, gum or e-cig is to satisfy the craving for nicotine without involving the other chemicals in cigarettes that are poisonous and cancer causing. Ya get that?
And Drew, Guinness is always looking for new world records. I think you qualify for the only person on the planet who thinks nicotine is not the addictive chemical in a cigarette.

I know that. It's interesting, but it's got bugger-all to do with the tar produced by burning tobacco.

It has everything to do with resin. And tar is resin. We are talking about sugars and resin here. What is amber? I can see that people on here dont know much about tobacco plants. I guess I would have to find a forum with people on it that know about botany. Tobacco is first and foremost a plant. So in order to understand and know what tobacco is you have to know something about horticulture and botany. See the big tobacco companies take tobacco leaves and then dip them in a vat of chemicals then flu cure them with heat and molasses and other sugars to make them taste better. Then they shred it and make cigarettes out of it for people to smoke and hopefully for them get highly addicted to. There was a medical study done once that I read where a british scientist studied a country where they smoked a lot of tobacco. They air dried it though so it lost most of its sugars in the drying process. The result of this was almost no reported cases of lung cancer in that area. It is also well established scientifically that refined sugar can cause cancer as well as diabetes.

Molasses itself is a resin that is made from the sap of plants.

One more thing Drew. If you're not addicted to nicotine why did you order 40ml of the Extra High nicotine liquid instead of the Zero?

Because Im trying to quit smoking. I dont want the chemicals in the cigarettes in my body any more and because I like nicotine. Also because I dont think nicotine is addictive or harmful so it doesnt matter how high the dosage is. The electronic cigarette will be easy for me to stop using. Thing is getting off the chemicals in cigarettes that actually are addictive... that is what is going to be hard.

I want it to taste as much like a cigarette as I can. And I actually got it yesterday. Im still on analogs but Im trying. Its going to take some getting used to and hopefully I can get used to it. But its not as satisfying to me as analogs are because it doesnt have the chemicals in it that are addictive.

 

[Houdini]

In your post I quoted you said nicotine is poison. Now you don't think its harmful.
You like nicotine? I wonder why.....BECAUSE YOUR ADDICTED TO IT!!!

Please do so, get yourself educated and then come back here afterwards.

Everything else aside, I do wish you good luck with this.

 

[drewterry]

Yeah I guess sarcasm is hard to see on a forum isnt it? No I am not addicted to my electronic cigarette. I tried chewing tobacco once too as a replacement for cigarettes. I was getting the same nicotine maybe even more but it just didnt work. I needed the chemicals in cigarettes not the nicotine. If I was addicted to nicotine then quiting analogs would be a snap. I would just find another method of getting nicotine in my system and I would be addicted to that instead. It never works that way. Trust me I have tried it. I have even smoked black tea because it contains nicotine. That didnt work either. It didnt have the added chemicals in it.

Have you ever smoked organic tobacco? I mean just picked leaves off of a tobacco plant and hung them out to dry then smoked them? If not you should try it.

 

[Houdini]

Then I'm sorry to say e-cigs arn't gonna help you either. They only have nicotine and none of the added chemicals.

 

[drewterry]

Well yeah its going to take a lot of will power. But if I can get a buzz off the nicotine then maybe getting off the addictive chemicals wont be so hard.

I think if you take the time and read the threads in the forum those questions are already answered. What I really want to know and hasn't been covered in any other thread is:

1. Drew, do you smoke or Vape?
   
2. Breifs, boxers or commando?
   
3. Where do you live?

Well? I'm still waiting for your answers Drew

Addictive Chemicals???.......And a "Buzz" from Nicotine?.....Welcome to The Emerald City my friend!The Wiz!

..... For that matter you are already smoking an e cigarette that contains nicotine. That means you should never have a craving for another analog cigarette again right?

I haven't had a craving for an analog since I got my e-cigarette.

E cigarettes should make regular cigarettes obsolete right?

Yup. My e-cig has made regular cigarettes obsolete.

I mean you could just chew nicotine gum or smoke an e cig and never crave a regular cigarette again.

Not quite. The gum never worked for me.

The e-cigarette has worked wonders. The reason? The e-cigarette takes care of both the nicotine addiction and the habitual/psychological/hand-to-mouth aspect of smoking, which I contend is the toughest part of my smoking addiction.

The gum took care of the nicotine withdrawal, but ultimately it did not work because it doesn't deal with the rest of the smoking addiction.

I can't believe I just read through all this crap.

 

[tribalmasters]

You sure drew is an addicted smoker? The word buzz sounds like kind of like something that would come out of a recreational drug user's mouth hehe!
