In what ways is chewing tobacco worse than smoking?
Can you tell me about the harmful effects of chewing tobacco? Why is it worse than smoking?
Chewing tobacco contains nicotine, which is highly addictive, and it can lead to various health issues like oral cancer, gum disease, tooth decay, and heart disease. Compared to smoking, chewing tobacco releases more nicotine into the bloodstream, which amplifies the addiction risk factor and can cause more severe and sudden health issues.
