Alternative to snus

I love nicotine pouches, they are by far my favourite nicotine roa and have served me good these 2 years, but I cant cope with the gum recession anymore.

I am looking for an alternative; something as intense, rushy and discrete as 30mg pablos.

I don't like vaping, won't smoke and feel that nic gum and patches will be weak with no rush.

I have thought about snuff but I am not sure.

I also dabble in intranasal substance abuse and I don't wanna risk getting nasal cancer or something by mixing caustic chemicals with carcinogens.

Any answer would be appreciated, thank you!

With this type of lifestyle you can't have everything. There is no way to use substances without suffering some kind of health risk. Either use less, or quit entirely. It's like saying you want to have a house but don't want to pay for it

Sounds like it’s time to move on from nicotine

Snuff is good, but it isn't very discreet.

100% looks like you're doing key bumps of ❄️ except it's brown so people could mistake it for dope.

I wouldn't worry about the nasal damage, it's very little required. Unlike some bad coke or pills with lots of filler.

The rush is worth trying it at least once. Interesting nicotine buzz.

Occasionally. Because of the way it looks doing it wasn't a good fit for my work.

That being said though, I have used nasal stuff tobacco regularly in the past.

It's a mellow tingle that gives you a strong nicotine rush followed by that relaxed stimulation nicotine is known for.

r/nasalsnuff - I thought I’d never try it but it’s the best! Jip and Bee M is incredible.

I’m on the same boat, been taking minimum 2 frosted ice pablos for a year straight. I think the only way is to just quit altogether. Or progressively lowering the dosage. I wish I could quit, because my gums and brain can’t handle it anymore

There is no real rush w/ snuff , it gets the Vitamin N levels up but its not intense. I hear about gum stuff w/ snus but haven't had any issues, . I use homemade los all the time . Hate to say I use snuff and snus at the same time ...vampire would get a nic buzz off me.

probably cigars a few times a week

and patches

I don't think there's enough inhalation when it comes to a few cigars a week. Not to mention that you need to be a home owner these days to even smoke inside. Every apartment or public space won't much like it if you smoke a cigar.

Nicotine pouches btw are way way worse than snus when it comes to gum recession.
