Health issues and other problems associated with cigarette smoking are attributable to multitudinous chemicals placed in tobacco by manufacturers. They are chemically designed to be "addictive". Consider growing your own tobacco - I do, all natural. It's not that difficult and you do not even need a large garden to do it. Grow in pots. Also, nicotine as such has plenty of benefits - insecticide, etc.
I've been in the presence of an older gentleman who would smoke his pipe using pure tobacco, and it was actually quite pleasant and relaxing, and did not bother me at all like cigarettes do. I believe nicotine is actually vitamin B3 (niacin), and is therefore a source of health benefits, such as supporting the nervous system.

After the last 2 nights I've went through I can't imagine why I'd do it again. I went to the ER, thank God I'm at 98% lung capacity. I have been buying my own "natural" as natural can be, from my corner store and rolling it myself. Certainly doesn't feel as bad as a name brand cigarette, but I'm done altogether. I am done experiencing the benefits. Most difficult thing I've quit in my lifetime, the 6th commandment was far easier, so was marijuana. Both are far more painful & damaging to many, and I was able to quit nicotine. Puts a new mindset on everything now. Whatever you choose you can do. Free will is a beautiful thing.

I’m blessed. Tobacco, alcohol, and drugs never appealed to me. Those who did them in middle school, high school, college, and into adulthood seemed to be slaves to them.  Or else they thought it made them look mature! I tried a cigarette once. It was nasty. Getting plastered, did that once; never again!  Marijuana, made me feel like I was seeing, hearing, breathing through a long tube of Saran Wrap. Never tried anything stronger.
