Do you want a drug that boosts fat burning from Visceral fat stores? Boosts focus, alertness, concentration and arousal blunts pain response? Want to improve your memory? Prevent Alzheimers? Increase the speed you learn? A drug which can also relax you? Calm your nerves? Dull pain? A drug which can treat depression, OCD, anxiety, ADHD, Epilepsy and Schitzophrenia? You already have it. Its Nicotine.

Nicotine is not smoking. Smoking is bad for you because you’re inhaling toxic combustible materials. I’m talking about the plant alkaloid that functions as a neurotransmitter. There are plenty of ways to administer nicotine; gum, patch, and vaporized water.

Now there are direct negative effects of Nicotine use. Most of these are actually the effects of nicotine activating the neurotransmiters that generate nicotine’s benefits. Acetylcholine, noreprinephrine, epinephrine, beta-endorphine and dopmine. All these can have a number of seemingly unrelated effects. Increased heart rate, increased blood pressure, dry mouth, gastric distress and a number of autonomic nervous system minor symptoms. The worst of them all is that when Nicotine increases your learning it also is extremely addictive because addiction is a learned behavior.
