From cigarettes in the 20th century to vapes in the 21st century we have now entered a new era of nicotine disbursement.
A Zyn is a small pouch that contains nicotine and flavors beyond your wildest dreams. However, unlike most nicotine disbursements like vapes and cigarettes Zyns contain only a few ingredients like nicotine and the ingredients you find in chewing gum.
Zyns also eliminate the harmful carcinogens that are inhaled with vapes and cigarettes.
Now you as a reader may be thinking about how harmful and addictive nicotine is and immediately shut out Zyns but there is a caveat.
According to the National Library of Medicine in the journal article Beneficial Effects of Nicotine by the author M.E. Jarvik he states, “When chronically taken, nicotine may result in: positive reinforcement, negative reinforcement, reduction of body weight, enhancement of performance, and protection against Parkinson’s disease, Tourette’s disease, Alzheimer’s disease, ulcerative colitis and sleep apnea.”
Unfortunately, Jarvik did write that “The reliability of these effects varies greatly but justifies the search for more therapeutic applications for this interesting compound.”
Maybe as a reader you want more research on nicotine and to really take a deep dive into its base components and see what their affects are.
From the article “Nicotine: The Good, The Bad & The Ugly” written by Lucy Holl, Holl states“ nicotine increases levels of alertness, euphoria and relaxation, improved concentration and memory due to increased activity of the acetylcholine and norepinephrine neurotransmitters, and reduced anxiety due to increased levels of beta-endorphin which reduces anxiety.”
I for one enjoy more euphoria relaxation, and reduced anxiety but like most great things the house always wins.
Holl explains that nicotine can cause a wide range of side effects that largely impact the brain, heart and gastrointestinal system.
Holl then gave a brief rundown of what these “side effects” entail. They ranged from dizziness, lightheadedness, nausea, vomiting and a higher risk for blood clots in your heart.
Getting back onto the topic of Zyns, Zyns lack actual tobacco which can cause mouth cancer lowering your chances of that. I, for one, enjoy Zyns whether I put one in the ol’ upper lip or bottom lip.
I personally think that Zyns do help me focus and make life just a little bit sweeter.
Zyn also caters to all legal aged users with flavors ranging from cinnamon, spearmint, coffee, wintergreen and mint.
I’m not endorsing nicotine pouches because when I do pop a Zyn all of the side effects are sometimes in the back of mind, but not every day is promised, so indulge why you can.
Lastly make sure you are of legal age to indulge in nicotine products, why? Because it is the law.
