While searching for smoking or nicotine alternatives to help you on your journey to quit smoking, you may have come across nicotine pouches.

Understandably, now you have some questions such as "what are nicotine pouches" and "what are nicotine pouches used for". However, there's no need to worry as we're here to help you understand all there is to know about nicotine pouches.

What are Nicotine Pouches?

Nicotine pouches are small smokeless, vapourless and tobacco-free pouches used to deliver nicotine without the need to charge a vape pen or light a cigarette. The small nicotine pouch, usually made of plant-based fibres, is filled with a powder which contains nicotine, flavourings and other fillers to ensure a comfortable fit in the gum. Each nicotine pouch brand offer a range of different flavours and nicotine strengths so you can find one that suits you. How many nicotine pouches per day you will need however will depend on a few factors.

How to use nicotine pouches

The flavoured nicotine pouch is placed in your mouth, usually between your gum and cheek. The nicotine and flavour is then absorbed through the gum, providing nicotine through a slight tingling sensation.

Unlike vaping and smoking, nicotine pouches can be used on public transport such as trains and planes as well as at the pub, in restaurants, at home and at work.

As with most things in life, there can be some nicotine pouch side effects that you should be aware of before trying.

What are nicotine pouches used for?

Nicotine pouches are another way to get your daily nicotine needs without reaching for a lighter.

Like vaping, nicotine pouches contain far fewer chemicals than smoking a cigarette, while still delivering nicotine to the user. They are therefore a good alternative to those who have begun their journey to quit smoking / vaping. They are also handy for those who crave nicotine on a long journey on public transport such as a flight abroad or a long train journey.

They're an easy alternative way to get your nicotine - smoke-free, vapour-free, no lighter, no device, nothing to charge. And since they contain far fewer chemicals than a cigarette, they're a solid option if you're already cutting back on smoking.

They're also handy for the times vaping or smoking just isn't an option, a long flight, a train journey, or anywhere you'd rather keep things low-key.
