summary:
. my recent article on tobacco forgot to
source low-nitrosamine snus and snortables .
. snus are for the mouth,
a powder in a tiny tea bag (see pict):
"Snus are tucked in the upper lip--. a comment claimed that real snus are bagless .
and don't require spitting."
snus are not without risk:
. although barely elevating risk of cancer,. keep in mind that nicotine promotes vessel growth
there is an increase risk of heart disease .
so if you do survive past 2016,
and have any other reasons to grow a cancer,
nicotine will grow that cancer more quickly .
. only Swedish snus are well known for being
low in cancer-causing nitrosamines .
. here is General from Sweden;
(snuscentral has some user ratings).
snuffs(nasal nicotine), the good, bad, and ugly:
. snuffhouse.org had a thread for
the best and worst snuffs:
. I could find sources for some good ones:
Poschl? only Schmalzlers:
Poschl Schmalzler A Brasil 100g
Poschl Schmalzler D Doppelaroma 100g
-- "Schmalzer is being taken in larger portions
than snuff" . Poschl is the world's
largest manufacturer of snuff ...
Bernard Aecht Alt Schmalzler
--. some snuff descriptions remind me of
fermentation notes;
which could imply a source of nitrosamines;
so I felt lucky being pointed at
Dholakia White (high nicotine):
"least user-friendly, a hint of ammonia"
... anyway, look for high-nicotine whites?
you might want to get a swedish snus
and break the bag for nasal use .
. other strong nicotine sources?
Samuel Gawith Irish D Light .
organic snus? iffy .
-- and doesn't use the same process,
so it can't make the same nitrosamine claims .
8.4:
mrsnuff.com had no mention of organic snuff;
I did find one user of "organic tobacco snuff".
