Nicotine interferes with flouride and other chemicals they're trying to poison us with. So it wouldn't surprise me in the least if nicotine is somehow antidote to ebola. |

Take note of the photos of people infected with Ebola in Africa. Not ONE of them have a smoke in their hand. The banksters who control ALL Politicians plan to rid the Earth of 6.66 Billion useless eaters. 90% of Lung cancers are in NON smokers as they are caused by nuclear testing over decades. How do they explain this to the sheep, simple, the 90% are caused by second hand smoke. The Beast, bansketers, hate you. They have been responsible for every war in the last 300 years. The sheep get slaughtered and the beast makes heaps of bucks and gains ever more control. The beast has known for a hundred years that Cannibus kills most cancers. Think of the suffering they have caused the sheep over the last hundred years by refusing to release this knowledge. The banksters realize that the stupid ones are non smokers are those are their targets. |

I'm wise enough to realise this anti smoking shit is bullshit, they do not give a fuck about our health or us in general simply looking at Monsanto. Where are the anti GMO, alcohol, pharmaceutical and fast food campaigns ? Give me a fucking break. |
| Anonymous Coward User ID: 64589037 United States10/29/2014 09:46 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | On no prescription medications and haven't been to a doctor in 25 years even though I have full medical coverage. Many people I have known in the past are dead now and a lot of them died of cancer even though they never smoked a cigarette in their entire lives. Most of them were sheep and did everything the self proclaimed "experts" told them to do. so why are they 6 feet under and I'm still running around in better shape than when I was in my 20's? My only thoughts are "I told you so". God gave you a brain and expects you to use it, never let anyone do your thinking for you. These "experts" are nothing more than pied pipers wanting you to follow them off a cliff to your death. . |

| Anonymous Coward User ID: 51663907 United States10/29/2014 10:06 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | My parents chained smoked in a closed house with no ventilation . I am a nicotine based life form , my fathers sperm was probably loaded with nicotine and my mothers eggs as well . I remember my first breath of fresh air when I was born and how hard it was on me until my parents rushed me home in the car with all the windows rolled up chain smoking and then holding my breath until they rushed me into the smoke filled chamber we called home , oh , the relief of it . Over the years I learned to breath regular air but it was very painful . Fact is I spent to much time working in it and now I have emphysema from it , only a smoke every ten minutes or so gives me any relief from it at all .  |

User ID: 63980384 United States10/29/2014 10:48 PM  Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | A lot of you know that I am a nurse. 2 months ago, I get a call from a former employer, Barnes Jewish Hospital in St. Louis, asking if I'd like to come back to work there. Quoting: Let Freedom Ring Seems they are having a hard time with staff after going nicotine-free. Now I don't mean no smoking on campus, what we are talking about here is they are drug screening for cotinine (nicotine). I don't smoke, but this means no smoking on your day off, no nicotine patch, no nicotine gum, nada. In 2009, Barnes Hospital forced all the employees to take flu shots. Keep in mind, the CEO of Barnes is on the St. Louis Branch of the Federal Reserve, and we know how much concern those guys have regarding our well-being. Well, I quit because of the flu shot deal, now they say if I come back (no flu shot) they will reinstate my previous hours worked toward retirement. The recruiter sounded desperate. Add to this the current efforts to get rid of e-cigarettes.Here's an article about how nicotine is used to make ZMAPP. [link to conservativebyte.com] They have a statement on their web page that they won't hire anyone who uses nicotine, but this doesn't apply to their Illinois facilities, only Missouri. I'll post a smilie once it gets approved. I may start smoking... Where is the link to Ebola in your post, as stated in the thread title?

| Anonymous Coward User ID: 18747138 United States10/29/2014 11:23 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | If you google seach nicotine and look enough you will find some studies in animal models that indicate nicotine is anti-inflammatory...that it has the potential to prevent "cytokine storm" by affecting the vagus nerve. Abruptly quiting nicotine can cause rebound inflammation just like how quiting other medications/drugs abruptly can have unintended affects. It seems it would be best to taper people off of nicotine if you are going to require them to quit. Not allowing patches or gum seems to go against proper medical care for treating the potentially inflammatory symptoms of abrupt nicotine withdrawl. I never understand why so called medical professionals "miss the mark" on these types of knee jerk decisions. |

Well, I suspect there are "lurkers" that just might find this topic to be interesting and just might check it out...you never know. I've always been interested in natural non-patentable molecules that just might have beneficial effects. Another one I have always found a bit fascinating is the sugar alcohol zylitol for its effects on the prevention of bacterial biofilm...most notably plaque formation. Heck, Trident even makes note of studies supporting this claim on the back of packs of gum that contain zylitol. It has also been investigated as a treatment for chronic wounds, such as in the case of persistent wounds in people with type 1 diabetes. Additionally, it is also used as a treatment for children with chronic ear infections...and it is just a dumb old sugar alcohol. I read too much...lol! |
