Does tobacco naturally contain nicotine?
That's interesting. Is nicotine naturally produced by the tobacco plant, or is it a result of the processing that is done to tobacco?
Nicotine is naturally produced by the tobacco plant. During the growth and curing process, which includes drying and fermenting, the nicotine levels can increase or decrease. However, even without processing, tobacco leaves naturally contain nicotine.
