Can't argue with that! Touche. Aspartame is weird enough but so are the hundreds to thousands of other random additives found in all sorts of crap...

Yeah, it's pretty mindblowing. And people just stick it in their mouth without question. I get really simple ingredients so it's whatever I guess. Just kinda sad to see little kids chugging high fructose corn syrup caramel colored beverages.

if nicotine was offered in a drink i wouldn't like it. gum has no effect for me. i quit smoking and vaping and i see absolutely no point in chewing the gum. i did try it and it's not worth the money.

I have met a lot of crazy kids whose parents let them eat/ drink whatever I ate my fair share of crap as a kid myself but thankfully I realized it and stopped.

Unless it's perhaps not nicotine in the cigarettes you're craving. Idk, just an interesting thought.

Its very different. Nicotine is a potent vasoconstrictor and acts strongly on the cardiovascular system. Its a very complex drug, certainly not just a stimulant.
Fact of the matter is that nicotine drugs are the biggest killers and caffeine drugs are way less lethal.
If I were to begin again with nicotine, which I won't, I would go for either rapé or mentholated tobacco snuff (Ozona). I have also been tempted by snus but I dont think its for me as the nicotine hit is VERY strong.

apparently some people are starting to use nicotine gum who has never smoked .
Recent research has shown that not only is nicotine itself not very harmful (the cancer is caused by the tobacco and additives not the nicotine ) apparently nicotine is also not as addictive As we thought, and additives are why tobacco is so addictive .
Furthermore , nicotine has some nootropic benefits .
I have actually considered trying nicotine gum while Writing, even though I have never smoked.
However nicotine gum is very expensive .

I'd rather just microdose on mushrooms before doing something like writing seems like a much cheaper (and probably healthier) solution to me.

I think the idea that nicotine itself is no worse than coffee is an incorrect one when applied to addiction. Nicotine causes more mood swings and greater cravings. Caffeine withdrawal is shorter in duration as well.
Both are addictive and if you have an addictive personality it can be hard to stop once you start either of them.
Nicotine would be riskier since the gum could trigger a relapse to smoking, which is horrible for your health.
If you're not a smoker or into vaping, why would you want to risk exploring such a reality through gum? Don't you see how spiritually bound users of nicotine are to it?

But they also seem to get something out of it, and its almost entirely the cancer and health problems of smoking that make it so grim.
If you could get what you like out of cigarettes without any of the harm, it might be worthwhile?
Certainly more worthwhile than smoking, and many people are willing to literally die to do that, so part of me does want to experience what it is they love about it so much if I can do so without dying of horrible lung cancers, smelling like shit, having yellow teeth, coughing all the time and not being able to run or exercise.
But still, I am happy with my weed and coffee and kratom, but part of me definitely is curious about incorporating some nicotine gum.
