One would think, might even have been taught, that the tar clogs arteries. But the "chemicals" also lead to cramps, tension, increased heart rate, shallow breath. Perhaps that's one "stimulating" effect of nicotine, so vaping wouldn't help. PS: I still think that nicotine alone isn't responsible for the addiction, but the warming, though consequently chilling effect, and the oral stimulation, that may affect neural pathways related to eating and drinking. And, arguably this counts all the more if it can be made to taste like apple, though cigarettes get flavors add from vanilla over cinnamon, honey, licorice and I don't wanna know what else, too.
