Retitle page to "Effects of nicotine on human brain development"
editThe vast majority of the text on this page refers to the effect of nicotine on the brain, regardless of source — Preceding unsigned comment added by JohnOyston (talk • contribs) 01:33, 22 February 2020 (UTC)

Delete Section on Comparison of risks and benefits of vaping

Dietary sources
editQuackGuru removed this paragraph as off-topic:
- Nicotine is present in certain human foods, especially plants from the family Solanaceae (such as potatoes, tomatoes, and eggplant).[1] Levels of nicotine around 180 ng/g dry material are present in tomatoes and eggplant. [2] Black teas, including regular and decaffeinated brands, have nicotine contents ranging from non-detectable to > 100 ng/g wet weight. Instant teas yield the highest nicotine contents (up to 285 ng/g wet weight).[3]
@JohnOyston: Do you know if the effects of dietary nicotine upon human brain development have been studied? Does eaten nicotine end up in the bloodstream like inhaled does? It would be on-topic to compare the risk from dietary to the risk of inhaled, and also to compare the quantity of exposure. -- Beland (talk) 22:06, 21 May 2020 (UTC)
