nicotine is likely one of the best appetite-control , cognative-enhancing and anti-anxiety medications ever known to man. A large driver of obesity , anxiety and psychotropic abuse was smoking cessation.

Giving out nicotine gum , would decimate the drugs industry, but likely resolve a lot of our chronic health and depression issues.
