Nicotine pouches are small, discreet pouches that contain nicotine but no tobacco. They are designed to be placed between the gum and lip, allowing nicotine to be absorbed through the oral mucosa. These pouches come in various flavors and strengths, making them a popular alternative for those looking to reduce or quit smoking or using chewing tobacco. Unlike traditional tobacco products, nicotine pouches do not produce smoke or vapor, making them a smoke-free option. They are often marketed as a less harmful way to consume nicotine, appealing to users who want to avoid the health risks associated with tobacco use.
