I am 82 and have been smoking since I was 16. BUT never more than five cigarettes a day. Now I smoke a BLU cigarette that is black. My vaping device is too strong for me. The New York Times published in 2005 and article called Incendiary Device about a Singaporean entrepreneur who was raising money for a cigarette filter than took away 95% of the bad chemicals. The wellness Bitches stopped her. NOW no one understands that people smoked and didn't binge on food.

Nicotine boosts the metabolism while keeping hunger at bay.

I smoked for 36 years. It wasn't good for me. I was never fat, but had an awful smoker's cough for the last 10+ years I was smoking, which was getting progressively worse. I quit smoking 10 years ago and didn't gain any weight at all. Why? Because I substituted vaping rather than eating for smoking. My smoker's cough went away withing a few weeks, and I still get the nicotine I crave.
