[QUOTE="puros_bran, post: 374613, member: 10"] This is my opinion. Take it as such. I'm a glorified delivery boy, not a doctor or scientist. I can point to studies backing my opinion but it's up to each individual to weigh the acceptable risk they are willing to accept in pursuit of happiness. Burning tobacco, more specifically, the chemicals added to tobaccos and resulting from combustion of tobacco is the 'bad' in smoking. Dipping/snus etc IS less harmful than smoking cigarettes and without the horrendous amount of chemical additives could be even safer still. I think the Swedes have proven it can be done in a practically harmless way. Cigarettes are in a category all their own. At least with pipe and cigars you are combusting actual tobacco. With cigarettes you are combusting paper made from tobacco (investigate it, you'll see). Back on nicotine... Nicotine in large doses is toxic. In typical levels ingested by nicotine addicts it is no more harmful than caffeine. Give a kid a coke and no one bats an eye, give a kid a Fuente Fuente Opus X and everyone loses their mind. [/QUOTE]
