I wasn't aware that tobacco alternatives added MAO inhibitors to their flavorings - I thought they were basically, in the case of vapes, propylene glycol and nicotine + "flavor". Is there evidence that the flavors they're including in these are actually MAOIs? |

There is of course variance depending on the exact flavorants used. For example, menthol and mint flavors don’t inhibit MAO, their activity is towards kappa-opioid agonism (induction of dysphoria).
