I was just talking to my partner about how we both find electronic cigarettes/vapes much less addictive than regular tailormade cigarettes and it led me to wondering if there are any other addictive compounds in commercial tobacco.
I have heard the theory that the nicotine in tobacco is potentiated by a monoamine oxidase inhibitor which is one way of explaining the difference.
We've both been using e-cigs/vapes for roughly 8 yrs (back when they were most commonly called e-cigarettes rather than vapes) and were both easily able to transition to vaping and haven't looked back.
And now that we use vapes going without for a day doesn't feel nearly as hard as it was when smoking cigarettes.
So I'd be interested in hearing from everyone what they think makes cigarettes more addictive (if you agree that is the case of course).
Cheers
