Is micro plastic more deadly than tobacco ? My guess would be no .

Some more context :

Smoking is only twice a week.

Chewing gum is 10 a day

    That’s a lot of gum you chew a day. But definitely still tobacco. You get more microplastic from other source than chewing it, but you get 100% of nicotine from smoking.

      Apparently it’s not the nicotine that is bad for you but the smoking (snusa, or chicking tobacco under the lip, is not particularly bad, or I’m on old research papers), inhaling smoke is really bad for you though and that is something we really know about.

      Also, I guess we would have noticed “gum chewers” dying everywhere like the 2G phone users, or flat earthers going missing when hiking…
