Tobacco and nicotine

This page is under development.

Tobacco and nicotine addiction involve the use of tobacco products, such as cigarettes or smokeless tobacco, to deliver nicotine to the body.

"Tobacco is among the world's leading causes of death and inflicts significant harm on physical health. However, it is often not treated with the seriousness it warrants in recovery from addiction. Grasshopper is committed to changing this perspective."

Nicotine is a highly addictive substance.

"The health effects of vaping remain largely unknown, yet the much quicker uptake of dopamine presents a potentially more alarming and addictive aspect. The accelerated release of dopamine creates a stronger and quicker reward response. As the long-term health implications of vaping continue to be studied, Grasshopper Recovery acknowledges the importance of addressing this emerging concern within the context of addiction recovery."
