Vaping: less respectable than smoking.
But at least slightly better for you.

The feds want you to believe nicotine will turn your mind into mush… but in reality, a good smoke might be the best “brain food” there is!
New research confirms that nicotine can slash inflammation levels in the brain and actually halt the self-destruct sequence that leads to Alzheimer’s, Parkinson’s, and other neurodegenerative diseases.
Those diseases often start when acetylcholine, a key neurotransmitter, goes AWOL.
Without it, your brain’s immune cells go haywire – and instead of attacking dead cells, they attack the brain itself.
But in a series of lab tests at the University of South Florida College of Medicine, researchers found that nicotine can actually fill in for the missing acetylcholine – keeping the immune cells in check and lowering levels of inflammation.

Yeah, but it’s addictive, unlike caffeine and sugar.

LOL They’d rather people get hooked on something that damages brain cells, like weed.

Both of which are addictive.
