    Far safer, probably even with garbage quality import vapes. You can see when someone at your gym swaps from smoking to vaping, their performance skyrockets. Clear as day their lungs are working better. Shouldn’t be a huge surprise given there is no tar when vaping

      Far safer, agreed. After 20-years of smoking, I quit coughing within 3-weeks.

      OTOH, I just quit vaping (10-years) and started the nicotine pouches. Game. Changed. I had no idea how bad vaping was for me. (That was bad for me personally. YMMV depending on several factors. I basically vaped like it was air.)

        I assume you mean patches, not pouches haha

        How long did it take to see improvement after you swapped to patches?

            Careful, those things cause awful gum recession and potential tooth loss if you use them regularly

              can you link studies on this? i’ve been looking but can’t find-- and i’ve been using pouches for years and haven’t noticed those side effects
