Smoking cessation; nicotine gum? -
i always thought nicotine keeps you addicted to smoking, but the tar is what is a danger to your health. now i hear nicotine causes damage to lungs also. does anyone know if this happens only when inhaled, or would the nicotine in the stop smoking gum also damage lungs? i have been using the gum to not smoke (haven-t smoked in 9 months, still addicted to the gum) my lungs are worst than when i smoked!I don-t know the answer to whether nicotine damages you or not. It is a strong poison, so the chance is good that it does. If you have gone 9 months without smoking, you are free of the smoking addiction and your lungs are probably looking great. However, you are NOT free of the nicotine addiction. It-s not as hard as you think to free yourself of this. Actually, it-s easy. Read the book, -Easy Way to Quit- by Allen Carr. It worked for me. And you don-t even have to stop the nicotine until you have actually finished the book. The book helps a person get rid of all the brainwashing that makes us believe its difficult to stop smoking. That brainwashing is the reason people fail to stop sometimes.If I can do it, you certainly can!No the gum does not hurt your lungs, however it is not good to be addicted to it either. Use patches to get off gum.
