Who Chews Tobacco

Answer 3

Here is some things that can happen when people chew tabacco! And if your french kissing on your bf and he just chewed a wad of the stuff it could get in your mouth too bleck.

Chewing tobacco cause's tooth decay. That's because chewing tobacco contains high amounts of sugar, which contributes to cavities. Chewing tobacco is also filled with coarse particles that can irritate your gums and scratch away at the enamel on your teeth, making your teeth more vulnerable to cavities.

Gum disease
The sugar and irritants in chewing tobacco and other forms of smokeless tobacco can cause your gums to pull away from your teeth in the area of your mouth where you hold your tobacco. Over time you can develop gum disease (gingivitis) and possibly tooth loss.

Heart problems
Smokeless tobacco increases your heart rate and blood pressure. Some evidence suggests that it may put you at an increased risk of heart attack. People who use smokeless tobacco also have higher cholesterol levels than those of people who don't use tobacco.

Oral cancer
Your risk of oral cancer is increased if you use smokeless tobacco. Oral cancer includes cancers of the mouth, throat, cheek, gums, lips and tongue. Surgery to remove cancer from any of these areas can leave your jaw, chin, neck or face disfigured.

Heyy. What's up? My name's Rachel, let me tell you a brief story about myself which I believe may be of some Help to you...

I am an Emphysema Survivor. I remember when I was diagnosed back in 2012, and they told me I had to quit otherwise I would not make it another 2 years. I told them, "If I'm going to die, I'd like to die Happy with a cigarette in my mouth". Stupid yes, but it's how I felt. I was stubborn, and did not believe that it could happen to me. I am only 32 years old, been smoking since I was 16... but the idea of Death at age 32 feels very foreign, almost surreal. However, when I began to notice a constant shortness of breath, and even coughing up blood- I decided something had to be done. I tried really hard to quit a couple of times, but could never resist the urges and temptation. Anyone who has ever tried quitting cold turkey, or by using one of those worthless patches/gums, will know what I'm talking about.

I went and saw a specialist, a physician who is reputed to be very successful in helping people quit. Among other practical advise, he referred me to a World-class Vapor E-Cig @ https://tryvaporcigs.im .. It is an electronic cigarette that heats "liquid nicotine" into a Safe water vapor which you inhale. No toxic smoke. I was told by my physician that this is something the tobacco industry does not want us to know about. It smells Clean, leaving behind no odor... and gives that relaxing "nicotine fix" we get from the regular, mundane cigarette. Being odorless, it can be smoked anywhere- even indoors. I have social anxiety, so a problem I do have with it is people always approaching me; telling me how cool it looks and asking a million questions when I'm seen Vaping in malls or restaurants. But yeah, my condition seems to be getting much better since I quit "smoking". I believe they still send out a completely Free Trial kit, only asking that you cover their cost of shipping.

Anyways, Take care! I hope I was of some help.. <3

Answer 5

He is well versed with the health risks of tobacco, use this sentence
and remember it by heart i.e. motivate him to give up smoking INDIRECTLY which follows:-
Keep quite for a few minutes now and than daily, he will definitely he will ask you what is wrong?
Say I am thinking about after we are married , will our children be a passive smoker, which is more dangerous.This will definitely arouse fatherly instinct in him and he will give up.Next ask him again after a few days "what have you thought?" if the guy is sincere to you he will give it up or else quit him, maybe some one is better is waiting for you.

Answer 6

I would much rather kiss someone with a cold sore than someone who chews tobacco. That is just gross.
He can get all types of cancer. Want to see what he could look like go to this web site: http://www.quittobacco.com/facts/effects.htm or
http://www.tobaccofacts.org/o2zone/puke_photos.html. NOTE that Long-term use of smokeless tobacco increases the risk of oral cancer nearly fifty times.

Answer 7

Tell him that you're looking for a boyfriend who doesn't taste like tobacco. Then kiss him goodbye.

Answer 8

Pray you don't get any surprises! I dated a guy that chewed and when I snuck up and laid one on him, I got a mouth full of tobacco spit. Needless to say that was the end.

Answer 9

there are alot of health risks associated with chewing tabacoo. some of them include (1) increase risk for cancer of the oral cavity. Oral cancer can include cancer of the lip, tongue, cheeks, gums, and the floor and roof of the mouth. (2) People who use oral snuff for a long time have a much greater risk for cancer of the cheek and gum than people who do not use smokeless tobacco. (3) gum recession and bone loss around the teeth.

i suggest you help your boyfriend to quit chewing tabacco. Nicotine patch could help, but quiting cold turkey is better. (i know. i use to smoke.) and in the mean time, have lots of mints handy.

good luck.

Answer 10

I believe the proper etiquette is to give him some papers...walking papers, that is.

No studies have been published, but I would guess that swapping spit with some chaw hound carries the same risk as being exposed to secondhand smoke, namely the same risks as if you did it yourself, only slightly less.

Answer 11

Just to think about it I can't kiss anybody right now, and that's from an occassional smoker!
