>Prevents me from smoking>Prevents me from drinking>Prevents me from over-eatingAny major downsides from using these? inb4 addictive and bad for your teeth / gums, which smoking and drinking are much much worse for
Rots your mouth away, makes your breath stink, and gives you mouth cancer.
>>77217373Dip / chewing tobacco does this. The nicotine pouches legal in my country aren't made with tobacco and have no links to cancer or bad breath. Afaik extreme daily users can get gum recession
>>77217364Nicotine will harden your arteries. Doesn’t matter how you consume it, it’s still not good for you. https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC8026694/
>>77217373No lol>>77217364But yes, these, like nicotine gum, vapes, etc. are more intensely addictive than cigarettes which thems3lves have added chems to amp up physical addictions, so that's saying something. Just use cigars or a pipes so if you can't use them for a couple weeks or months orr a year you won't even care.
>>77217382I've heard enough.... gonna buy a pack of ciggies and a 24 pack tomorrow!
>>77217382Ok bro keep fucking up your health. Not my problem lol.
>>77217382Aight bro I'll try make sure this pack is my last one. Will just have to try hard not slipping into other vices
>>77217364Literally the only downside is that it's a vasoconstrictor and can slightly raise your heartrate and blood pressure
>>77217364Did these for three years. They burn marks/scars into your cheeks and will fuck up your esophagus (GERD/acid reflux). They also fuck with your gums with gum recession. Yeah it's not as 'acidic' or seemly acidic at all, but your mouth and esophagus will get fucked up. They will also screw up your cardio. Your dopamine will also be similar to caffeine addiction where you need to take these just to feel normal. Quit these half a year ago and feel great now.
>>77217364In my personal experience >Prevents me from sleeping Was a pretty substantial downside. Nicotine alone is better than nicotine plus a bunch of other nonsense, but nicotine alone is still a pretty powerful stimulant and I think I was probably taking more of it on pouches than I ever was with tobacco, I eventually realized that it was severely fucking with my CNS and especially my sleep and had to quit entirely.
>>77217364High blood pressure, like dangerously high all day long every day. Probably worse than smoking in that regard since it’s elevated for so much longer
>>77217487+2 to this. I could physically feel the difference in blood pressure when I quit, I could bend over and touch my toes without feeling pressure in my face, I could lay down without feeling my heartbeat.
baldness and nicotine use hard correlate
>>77217364Coffee also does all of these things but it also:>protects against cancer caused by radiation, chemical carcinogens, viruses, and estrogens>synergizes with progesterone, and increases its concentration in blood and tissues>lowers incidence of suicide>lowers cadmium in tissues>inhibits iron absorption if taken with meals >lowers serum potassium following exercise; stabilizes platelets, reducing thromboxane productionetc. etc.
Based Velo chad. I like the compartment in the top, desu. I'm like... 3-4 months on. Velo's don't make me 'nic sick' as easily as zyn does.Tucker Carlson alluded to "male enhancement" when talking about nic pouches. And i'm not bullshitting you... my dong is hanging more freely than before I was using nic pouches. Take that for what it's worth.My only gripe is the price. I swear the price varies wildly between places... i've got this shit for $3 before. But then sometimes it's $6. Racetrac is doing a sale right now 15/3.
