What is causing this effect?
Does Nicotine selectively targets language related parts of the brain?

Why waste it?
Why not use it for better purposes instead of furthering a pathetic slavery to a primal drive?

this is the 6th nicotine thread this week

did some autistic anon suddenly become super interested in it and can't use the catalog, or is this nicotine shills trying to stir up discussion/debates about nicotine?

>take nicotine to induce neurotropic effects
>surprised when notices "a flow like state" (AKA notice neurotropic effects)
This contradiction in logic would say otherwise. But for other people in this thread I'll spell it out.

>Nicotine acts as an acetylcholine agonist which means it has essentially the same effects as acetylcholine inside the brain and it quickly and efficiently crosses the blood brain barrier.
It has the same effect as basic choline supplement or galantamine.
>Nicotine causes both short term and long term desensitization of the acetylcholine receptors and since these receptors
Except it causes rapid and long term changes in the brain. Your once a week gum is not frequent enough to cause addiction/reliance on it however.....\
>Nicotine is characterized by relatively slow absorption (~7.5 hours to reach peak plasma levels) countered with a short elimination half-life (~2 hours).
Your once weekly gum is only benefiting you a few hours and if you did try to take it more frequently you would become addicted.

There are other/better nootropics available if you're seeking an acetylcholine agonist.
