Nicotine is a very safe addiction. It’s all the other chemicals that cigarette makers put into the tobacco that does all the harm. This is why e-cigs — vaping — is such an excellent alternative nicotine delivery system. Is it any wonder cigarette makers are dead set against vaping? Of course those cheap imported flavored vaping cartridges are as bad as ciggies and are marketed to mindless children of all ages . . .
I said much the same but the comment comes after yours, which is better stated.
