Getting Sick After <Daily Bowl

[Hillcrest]

Maybe I missed it in the above posts, but do you inhale? I’m nicotine sensitive and I no longer inhale (stopped 20 years ago).
I also smoke mostly va’s not burleys. I’m under the impression that burleys are more nicotine laden.

Burleys have 12 to several hundred times the amount of nitrates ... if you are sensitive to nitrates (red wine, grapes etc) then you will get tongue bite, congestion, sinus irritation, headache, irritated mouth and throat. I am very sensitive to nitrates so I avoid Burleys if I can. It has to do with a bacteria in the mouth and digestive track that reacts to nitrates to process it for heart health and some people produce more of that bacteria therefore more irritation.

Why would I want to quit? I love tobacco and nicotine!

I was just teasing (through sarcasm) ! No offense intended. (Although you might make a good case study ... "you're not gonna believe this but we had a guy once ... " )

This isn’t a “good” idea per se, but you could start smoking a few cigarettes a day, to get your nic tolerance up a lil bit. I’ve been smoking cigarettes since I was 17 (37 now) and I consider myself a nic heavy-weight. I VERY rarely get nic sick, and I believe that’s because I’ve been conditioning my body for pipes for years!!!lol like I said, not really a good idea, but it would prolly work.

DISCLAIMER: I exempt myself of any and all responsibility of any and all harm, arguments with wife and/or doctor and any and all loss of money!hahaha

Thanks for the disclaimer I’m gonna pass on your advice this time.

After a few months, I’ve gone back to sampling aromatics and haven’t had the same problem since.
