Conversely, I switch to Dipping Tobacco as my quitting smoking mechanism, I dont think I can quit nicotine and stick to it, but quitting dip does seem legitimately easier than smoking, as there is much less ritual associated with it.

- celrod 8y agoMy dad's dad smoked a lot when my dad was young, but managed to quit by chewing cigars. He died of mouth cancer. My dad swore off of drugs and alcohol, and always said he wanted to work until the day he dies. He's instead spent the last 10 years dying of Alzheimer's. For what it's worth, I'm inclined to follow my dad's approach. Perhaps with a different interpretation of retiring when I die. But there are some games you just can't win.

- pessimizer 8y ago> there is much less ritual associated with it. This is very true, but try switching to Swedish snus. Dipping tobacco still has a lot of cancer risk, whereas snus doesn't, really, so you can take your time quitting. It's the difference between roasted and steamed tobacco; it's the combustion products that get you.
- Aloha 8y agoI'd have to dig for the source, but I found a source on the internet, which seemed incredibly credible for being a college professors wordpress blog. Basically, since 2005, the nitrotesimne levels in US Style smokeless tobacco has declined by more than 75% due to changes in manufacturing (largely), and from say, 80mg to 5mg, in the 1975-2016 period. Tobacco Specific Nitrosamines are widely acknowledged to be the single largest cancer causing agent in oral tobacco.

- azinman2 8y agoWhere are you getting that snus doesn’t have cancer risk?
- Aloha 8y agoIt has pretty low risk, Scandinavia has the highest oral tobacco use, but the lowest oral cancer risk in europe.
