eli5. Explain to me why nicotine pouches are considered dangerous?

653 views

It just seems like these pouches just contain mostly nicotine which is negligible to our health like caffeine. I started doing them a few years ago as a healthier alternative, but I’m wondering the long term impacts. Seems much better than smoking or vaping

Maybe the nicotine itself isn’t super harmful. But those pouches habe added chemicals to cut open your mouth to deliver nicotine to your blood stream more efficiently. The nicotine is highly addictive – Lancet journal of medicine ranks Nicotine on par with Heroin in terms of psychological addiction. So it causes those cravings to use the pouchds, which are exposing your mouth to constant open sores. Not to mention the effect of acidity on the teeth.
