| 14:01.58 | hali | snuff is bad for you mmkay |
| 14:04.40 | boudiccas | hali; in what way is nasal snuff 'bad' for you??? |
| 14:05.24 | hali | it's got nicotine in it right? |
| 14:05.32 | boudiccas | yes |
| 14:05.51 | hali | and you probably damange the blood vesels in your nostrils |
| 14:06.17 | boudiccas | you sniff it into the front part of your nose |
| 14:06.58 | boudiccas | the amount of nicotine in a pinch of snuff is negligible, perhaps even unmeasurable |
| 14:07.06 | hali | right |
| 14:08.21 | boudiccas | there are no known health problems with nasal snuff, no concers, no burst blood vessels ect |
| 14:08.25 | boudiccas | *etc |
| 14:09.26 | hali | classic bollocks imo, aren't there even labels on snuff that it can damage your health? |
| 14:10.31 | boudiccas | the label says 'this tobacco product can damage your health and is addictive', but thats classic governmental bs which has to be put on /all/ tobacco products, whether its true or not |
| 14:10.46 | boudiccas | and in this case its not true |
| 14:15.16 | hali | what kind do you sniff? |
| 14:15.42 | boudiccas | nasal snuff, mainly McChrystals |
| 14:16.01 | boudiccas | and mainly mentholated |
| 14:18.23 | goltor | sounds like a good option for an english winter if you're a smoker |
| 14:18.40 | goltor | or sitting at my desk at work :P |
| 14:18.58 | goltor | *had |
| 14:19.05 | boudiccas | you dont get the same nicotine hit with snuff as you do with smoking cigarrettes |
| 14:19.26 | boudiccas | but it is a good way of helping to cut down or give up smoking |
| 14:20.55 | boudiccas | ther has only been one case of cancer with nasal snuff, and that was afarmer who got cancer in his left ear which by conicidence was the ear thta he put snuff in for the last 40 years! |
| 14:21.48 | goltor | is it readily available? |
| 14:22.23 | hali | i guess there are various kinds of nasal snuff, but the betal nut which most of it is made from can cause cancer |
| 14:22.29 | boudiccas | nad there has only been one adverse medical report aginst snuff. a doctor in 1791 wrote an adverse report on snuff taking, but later retracted it saying that he was having an rgument iwht his tobacconists over the size of his snuff bill! |
| 14:22.39 | goltor | Above all, every time, but only when, the craving for a cigarette is urgent, take a pinch of snuff. Eventually you will find you have lost the craving for cigarettes, and have acquired a craving for snuff. |
| 14:22.47 | goltor | haha, give up one habit for another :P |
| 14:22.56 | boudiccas | hali; english snuff does not use betel nut, only tobacco |
| 14:23.30 | boudiccas | there are several places online where you can order snuff and it will be posted to you |
| 14:24.08 | boudiccas | goltor; if you want the urls, please feel free to pm me |
| 14:24.11 | goltor | EEC Council Directive 92/41/EEC now forces snuff retailers to affix a libel to their products: "CAUSES CANCER". |
| 14:24.14 | goltor | Clear evidence, not of a health hazard, but of duplicitous bureaucratic tyranny. |
| 14:24.23 | boudiccas | true |
| 14:24.35 | goltor | http://www.snuffbox.org.uk/ |
| 14:24.54 | hali | http://info.cancerresearchuk.org/healthyliving/smokingandtobacco/smokelesstobacco/ |
| 14:27.05 | boudiccas | that is mainly about /oral/ snuff andnot /nasal/ snuff |
| 14:27.36 | goltor | just saw your farmer story |
| 14:27.38 | boudiccas | my snuff does not go into the mouth so it will not affect the mouth. it only goes into the front part of the nose |
| 14:28.39 | goltor | apparently the snuff he used contained charred aloe stems though |
| 14:29.09 | boudiccas | well it was a damned silly place to put it anyway! :) |
