I am of your same opinion about nicotine, but I will say that the pouches are making my gum receed noticeably after about 1 year of daily use... trying to switch to gum now

I think that's my biggest fear about using them. I think I'll keep an eye out for that at well. If it starts to happen, I'll probably just quit nicotine. I can't put stuff in my lungs and I hate gum.

nicotine independently damages the endothelium (innermost lining of blood vessels) leading to stroke heart attack poor wound healing after injury or surgery etc. even without tobacco

probably why it damages gums

not worth the very small benefits
