I have type 2 diabetes and am I seeing in testing my blood sugar that most times when I smoke my pipe, by blood sugar levels spike up. In doing some reading, I see that the nicotine is responsible for this. I've seen the sticky on Sugar and nicotine levels, but does anyone know of a site that lists either the sugar content or nicotine levels of the tobacco? I have seen the Tobacco Reviews site, that gives you a vague gauge of this with the strength rating, but this is subjective to each smoker, and I don't know if it is a dependable reference.
I guess, what I am trying to get to is finding a list of various types of tobacco that are low in nicotine so I can keep my blood sugar under control. Maybe the only thing I will be able to do is smoke a bowl of something and note my blood sugar lever before smoking and after and log it. That sounds like way too much work though.
Thanks
