Discussion on Nicotine Use and Benefits

Is it fair to call you a nicotine enthusiast?

Not an enthusiast.

A nicotine user, I would say, I think is fair.

And I wouldn't say that it's healthy.

It has cognitive benefits unquestionably.

And when not abused,

there really is no reason

not to utilize it. But you have to

be strategic and you need to do it with your doctor's permission, of course.

First of all,

we really should be using the patch if I'm being completely transparent.

I just prefer the gum.

It's more effective when I utilize it.

But the patch is the absolute least addictive method.

There's a way to do this that's smart, right?

And that would be utilizing a patch,

doing it from dawn till dusk.

You wanna stop when the sun goes down so that you're not overstimulated, it

doesn't mess up your sleep. You would wanna do five days on, two days off,

so your body doesn't adapt and desensitize to it so that you need more nicotine.

It comes from a green tomato plant. There are some benefits to it.

It can help curb appetite.

It can help with cognitive enhancement, memory, focus, recall.

I'm not saying it's a health food. It isn't.

It's a tool so that you can function more optimally.

I do have a friend who tells me that the democratic drug for

Democrats is weed

and for Republicans it is nicotine. So there is that divide.
