Does Nicotine Cause Cancer

Nicotine is a carcinogen, which means it has the ability to cause cell mutations. Most cell mutations are like babies born dead, they do not live long. Any cell mutation that is viable and rehearsals can become cancerous. Aspirin also has this ability in a testube but aspirin does not cause significant cell mutation in the human body and is therefore not considered a carcinogen.
Carcinogens alone does not cause cancer, but increase the risk. Your body makes new cells in the body, all the time. It's like shooting craps with loaded dice, they always fall as you want, but chances are better. If you stay in contact with a carcinogen, such as nicotine, your chances go up! And it's not just smoking, chewing tobacco and snuff has been shown to increase the chances of the lip, mouth, gums, and throat cancers.
It is true that there are many chemicals that are worse than nicotine, but I just try to avoid things that might kill me.

Of course, other things also cause cancer, such as sunlight ...................!

To some extent, everything causes cancer and some more than others.

Nicotine is not carcinogenic, is what gives you that dependence.

There are other chemicals in cigarettes, such as butane, propane, etc. tar, which have carcinogenic properties when smoked.


This is so stupid ... Why would I smoke? It does nothing but slowly kill you ...

No, it's other chemicals in cigarettes that are toxic. Nicotine occurs naturally in the human body, and your brain has specific receptors for it.
