Let's not forget the brain and lower Parkinson's Disease risk too.

OCD post.
Nicotine is only as addictive as drinking coffee. Brainlets fell for the "muh super addictive" nonsense because low IQ people with behavioral addictions (same as pica, eating literal dirt) were habituated to smoking. They blamed the drug rather than an innate failing with themselves. Even tobacco isn't "addictive" in a psychological sense and the withdrawal symptoms are very mild, I'd argue more mild than caffeine withdrawal. Withdrawal Symptoms are a very mild headache and slight loss of focus, but end very quickly.

Although, it isn't "recreational". More of a performance enhancing drug.

Take the nicotine pill.

Nicotine.

The king.

>to mention the effects of various chemicals such as nicotine have on your entire system.
You paint this as some sort of negative.

Tobacco is KING.

t. Low IQ person that assumes the worse with a slippery slope fallacy, as bad as possible.
I've been doing what he has for years and feel absolutely no compulsion to smoke. I'll just stop smoking for weeks to months to years for the heck of it. The only people who get addicted to smoking packs of cigarettes a day are not very intelligent and they of all people need the cognitive enhancing benefits the most.

Yes. Nicotine will help with studying regardless.

>Is it safe?
Somewhat.
The cardiovascular load of pure nicotine is stronger than that of smoked tobacco (MAOIs and NO increase from tobacco smoke attenuates nicotine's vasoconstrictory and hypertensive effect).
The PG/VG carrier in e-vaping devices can capture saliva and pathogens from the throat and mouth and cause it to migrate deeper into the lungs. This is a good reason NOT to use the giant faggot "box mods" like this >>10186771 mouth breather, and instead use high nicotine per hit to minimize the amount of other junk in the e-cig. Tobacco is still king.
>Should it be banned due to their marketing towards children?
This is a loaded question that implies they are marketing to children to begin with. No.
>Does nicotine increase focus?
Yes, see pic related.
>What's the /sci/ consensus on vaping?
It looks retarded but can be beneficial.

Noticeably good effects. Tobacco is a mental elixir and enhances the mind.
