I just thought it was hilarious reading how much of this modern craze is directly relatable to tobacco.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aromatherapy

...uses plant materials and aromatic plant oils, including essential oils, and other aromatic compounds for the purpose of altering one's mood, cognitive, psychological or physical well-being.
Modes of application
The modes of application of aromatherapy include:
Aerial diffusion: for environmental fragrancing or aerial disinfection

Direct inhalation: for respiratory disinfection, decongestion, expectoration as well as psychological effects

...etc...
Materials

...etc...

Vaporizer (Volatized) raw herbs: Typically higher oil content plant based materials dried, crushed, and heated to extract and inhale the aromatic oil vapors in a direct inhalation modality.
Theory
...Other stated uses include pain and anxiety reduction, enhancement of energy and short-term memory, relaxation, hair loss prevention,

Those are all well known effects of Nicotine, except we can only hope about the affect on hair loss.

Someone should send a copy to the FDA. But then too I read somewhere that their own statistics show moderate pipe smokers live 3 years longer than non-smokers and they choose to ignore that. The parallels above are in all probability contributing factors to the pipe smokers advantage.

The persecution of pipe smokers is political, not scientific. "Science" is used as a justification, but all that is required for science is verifiable results. It does not require that the question be complete or relevant.

The internet is vastly improved by rants! You might interrupt the posting of pictures of meals, kitty videos and Ashley Madison hacks however.
