Nicotine is supposedly an appetite suppressant, so we are told (and thus is the reason why so many cig smokers pile on the pounds after they quit)- do any pipe smokers here find pipe smoking to suppress appetite? Do you eat more if, for any reason, you are unable to smoke for a day or two?
Here in the UK we have a problem with obesity which in extent is not far short of the problem which the USA faces, yet in mainland Europe, where people often smoke more (e.g. France) no such problem exists. Since obesity arguably causes more damage to health than tobacco, maybe we should advocate smoking for all?
Anyone want to comment?
