It may be "less deadly" than cigs ( which I do believe ) but that's like saying getting stabbed is better for you than getting shot. I googled his name and saw his video, won't watch though because I don't think it's a good idea to give nicotine a whole bunch of mind tools she can use on you in the coming months and years.

Anything that isn't helping you stay nicotine free should be shitcanned.

Yeah I don’t pay mind to him now that I’m quit but the whole time I dipped I kept seeing videos of him popping up, never heard of him when I smoked or anything but then when I was dipping his videos were everywhere. Seems like a tool for people to be in self denial about the harm in tobacco.

Hmmm...looks like the Big Eye was watching you.    roflmao

Anyone else think it’s scary that this rodu guy is helping advertise smokeless as something safe or as a good alternative to cigarettes? Even if his “research” were true and dip was relatively harmless(which we all know it’s very unhealthy) it’s still bad to be promoting something so massively addictive.

Yep... he's long been a topic of discussion around these parts. I honestly think his heart 'was' in the right place. And then Big Tobacco got their hooks into him and he completely lost his way.

Unfortunately, folks will look at 'DR' in front of his name and think he's got good intentions and telling the right story. They couldn't be more wrong.

Yeah he may promote dip as a safer alternative to smoking but the real only safe alternative is to cold turkey quit
