Why don’t they want us to use tobacco anymore?
>>
It's due to radioisotopes in the soil, mostly arsenic. The tobacco plant absorbs these into its leaves and when you smoke them, then get lodged in your lungs. Eventually they undergo radioactive decay there and the gamma rays can damage DNA and cause a cell to turn cancerous. This is how smoking actually causes lung cancer and almost no one knows this.

You do realize it's pretty easy to grow tobacco right?

>>543113683
Maybe I should grow my own

It's an antiparasitic you can grow in your backyard.

I grow and process it into pipe tobacco. I have a raised bed and a mild climate and after I chopped down my plants last year I noticed they just regrew from the roots. I left 'em and have cropped these plants three times this year. I'm going to mulch them over for the winter and see if they revive in the spring again. If so, that's a life hack - perennial tobacco.

Hardest part is getting seeds started, they're the size of a speck of dust and the plantlets will die if you look at them funny until they're about 6" tall, after that they're super hardy.

>>543113603
True. But why do people who smoke corp laces cigs smell so fucking bad while organic tobacco smokers don't?

No idea. I don't go around sniffing people.

Lung cancer is a post a-bomb phenomenon. The jet stream picked up the radiation over new mexico and dropped it on the tobacco belt in rainfall.

It's not illegal to grow in the USA, maybe OP's a eurofaggot on a proxy and thinks we have the same draconian laws they have to endure.

>>543114412
Nah the problem is the mineral fertilizer they use now has polonium in it and nightshades take that up and concentrate it. Fallout impact is detectable, but minimal.

>>543114292
because that's your imagination you idiot. next you'll be saying someone smells good after sitting by a campfire

>Lung cancer is a post a-bomb phenomenon
No, radioisotopes have always existed in the soil. They're produced in the upper atmosphere by cosmic rays, or arrive here as such. There's still large amounts of primoridial radioactive isotopes still around as well. They're what keeps the Earth's core molten over billions of years.

it's legal in the eu. anyway smoking is for the lower class.

It's the mineral fertilizer.

>Gamma rays

Arsenic is a heavy metal, not a radioisotope and it's alpha particles, not fucking gamma rays.
Pretty much every post in this thread is stupidity.
>>
>smoking is for the lower class
Smoking CIGS is for the lower class. But everybody enjoys a snootful of snus, a puff on a pipe, the cloud around a cigar. It's poetically profitable to puff this preferred plant.

No, it's what I said, not what you said.

>Arsenic is a heavy metal, not a radioisotope and it's alpha particles, not fucking gamma rays.
No certain isotopes or arsenic undergo beta decay and produce gamma rays chang. This is common among heavy metals. Some isotopes decay by the alpha chain, and other by beta decay.

No it's the mineral fertilizer which only came in around WWII.

But they do smell good after sitting to a campfire. You must be one of those brown Germans.

It kills toxoplasmosis and other parasites.

Nicotine = broad neuroprotective, cognitive, and anti-inflammatory effects

Nicotine mimics acetylcholine by binding to α7 nicotinic receptors, upregulates them, and may inhibit acetylcholinesterase. This increases cholinergic signaling.

Boosts memory, learning, attention via effects on dopamine, serotonin, glutamate, GABA.

Cholinergic deficits underpin MCI/Alzheimer's; nicotine improves attention/memory in AD patients & healthy volunteers.

Studies show inverse AD-smoking association (risk drops with higher consumption) and gains in attention, immediate/long-term memory, consolidation.

Anti-inflammatory powerhouse: Activates cholinergic anti-inflammatory pathway (vagus nerve) suppresses cytokines & neuroinflammation.

Strongest protection in sepsis/endotoxemia; promising for ulcerative colitis, RA, OA, MS, myocarditis.

Attenuates LPS-induced fever & shifts to anti-inflammatory state.

Stimulates dopamine release, protects dopaminergic neurons dramatically lowers Parkinson's risk

Reduces glutamate excitotoxicity neuroprotection (hippocampus), may aid schizophrenia, bipolar, ADHD, anxiety.

Promotes neurogenesis, activates NAD+ salvage, curbs glucose hypermetabolism, fights oxidative stress & telomere shortening

Increases resting metabolic rate, activates thyroid receptor-β, boosts T4T3 conversion.

Protective against hypothyroidism and hashimotos

Smokers show higher T3, lower TSH, reduced autoimmune thyroid risk (protection fades after quitting).

Long-COVID / vaccine dysautonomia: Counters SARS-CoV-2 spike blockade of acetylcholine receptors. Nicotine can restore cholinergic/autonomic balance.

Anti-estrogenic: Inhibits brain aromatase, lowers conversion of testosterone to estradiol (confirmed in animal models).

addiction is a weakness.

>>543114292
People who smoke organic cigarettes smell bad, but commercial cigarettes have all sorts of chemicals in them that make the smell even worse. Treatments and preservatives and the like. Exposing your mucus membranes to partially combusted hydrocarbons is bad for your health, but if you're going to do it, growing your own tobacco is the best way. It will even help keep pests away from your garden (nicotine is a pesticide)

What's gonna really blow your mind is the radioactive levels were minute up until the atomic bomb testing era.

Dont go down that rabbit hole. There is a reason tobacco companies gladly accepted the blame,but were allowed to continue to exist...because nuclear isotopes in the atmosphere detonated by the government made them oh so much worse

should i just vape? is nicotine actually good for you?

They want to make you weak and gay.
>>
>>543113436
no productivity boost from it yet they need to pay for your health issues. they want to turn you into literal Matrix batteries, total and full optimization, fuck your enjoyment of life or happiness. work bitch! for free if possible, not headaches, no extra expenses. if you lament you get replaced by imported infinity jeets
>>
>>543113436
because its political, its their job to come up with new green policies, they want to raise new taxes, an anti tobacco business.

>>543120833
they say plants can shed leafs to clean themselves, they deposit the toxic substances in the dead leafs, so its maybe better to smoke only the green live healthy leafs.
>>
>>543113436
i love smoking its too bad they took it from the normies, they could all use a smoke but never will. it sucks to suck, faggot

If you inhale burned products, you will get cancer.
Knock yourself out.
