HOW TO APPLY?

If you are new to the world of nicotine, we recommend starting your adventure with weaker versions of pouches, such as ZYN, Nordic Spirit, Skruf. After placing the pouch under your upper lip, you will start to feel a tingling or pinching sensation. This is completely normal and nothing to be afraid of, this is how we know that the nicotine is starting to be absorbed. This sensation may be weaker or stronger depending on the strength of the product in question. After a while the pinching stops or will be significantly less and you can relax in peace. A way to reduce this discomfort may be to change the position of the sachet or sip water.

NOTE: We recommend beginners to spit out saliva, with a high concentration of nicotine we may experience discomfort in the form of dizziness, so removing saliva is important for people who do not know what dose of nicotine their body will accept.

Advantages of nicopods

The main advantage of switching to nicotine pouches is that the nicotine in them has less harmful effects. This is mainly because you avoid smoking tobacco, and thus reduce the amount of tar you deliver to your lungs (it's a safer way to use/enjoy nicotine). According to an American study, 60% of smokers quit for health reasons. You too can do it with the help of nicotine pouches!

You can use Nicopods anywhere without disturbing other people through smoke and cigarette stench.

Are they safe?

Nicopods contain nicotine, which is a highly addictive substance - just like caffeine or sugar. You should not use them if:

you have an allergy to nicotine
you are pregnant or breastfeeding
you have problems with hypertension

Nicotine itself does not cause cancer, but excessive use can lead to an elevated heart rate.

Should I store them in the cold?

No. You don't have to store them in the fridge, but some people like them better chilled 🙂

What do the dots on the packages mean?

Dots, or numbers on cans, are a way to indicate the nicotine content per gram of product. The more dots or the higher the number, the more potent the product. Strength is measured in milligrams of nicotine per gram or sometimes milligrams per pouch. Most manufacturers provide this information in numbers or dots.

Unfortunately, the number of dots is not always the same in all brands, but they usually mean:
- 1-2 dots: normal strength, about 6-8mg/g
- 3 dots: medium strength, about 12-14mg/g
- 4 dots and more: strong strength, about 16-20mg/g and more

The overall feel of a given pouch is not only dependent on the concentration of nicotine, but also on the type of flavors.

Should I chew them?

No, you should not chew them! Nicotine pouches are not meant to be chewed - this will inhibit the effects of the product.

What are nicotine pouches made of?

They are made of high-quality food fillers such as nicotine derivatives, water, eucalyptus, pine fibers, flavorings and sweeteners. They do not contain tobacco.

Nicotine is a naturally occurring stimulant that is extracted from tobacco leaves. When using nicotine, most people feel relaxed and their mood improves.

Is it a snus?

Yes and no. It is used in the same way as snus, looks similar, but does not contain tobacco. It is called "white snus" by some nicopods.

Can I swallow the pouch?

Never swallow pouches!

Are there age restrictions?

Yes, this product is dedicated to people aged eighteen and over only.
