Question:
Is this statement correct? (about nicotine).?
It is a LOT better to be addicted to nicotine gum than cigarettes. True?
Answers:
I actually asked my doctor the same thing when making a decision to quit. His answer to me was:
"I cannot advocate intentionally replacing cigarrettes with nicotene lozenges/gum however, you would avoid inhaling additional chemicals and tar into your lungs." He further went on to explain that nicotene regardless of how it enters into your body has systemic effects and can integere with your body's natural processes. (Glucose, insulin, kidneys the whole kit and kaboodle.)
Hope this helps!
