Dr Ardis on nicotine, plants and the brain

Dr Bryan Ardis has talked at length about low-dose nicotine. This page gathers 6 of his clips and talks on two subjects he returns to: where nicotine comes from, and what it might do in the brain. Each group sits next to our guide on the same subject, where the measured amounts and the trial results are set out.

The players load from Rumble only when you press play, and the short labels are written by us. Open a video and the uploader's own title appears.

Dr Ardis has no connection to HerbalNicotinePatches and does not endorse our patches. What he and his hosts say in these videos is theirs, and none of the videos is a study of this patch.

Nicotine in plants and food

Nicotine is made by tobacco and, in far smaller amounts, by its relatives in the nightshade family, such as eggplant and tomato. These clips are where Dr Ardis talks about where nicotine comes from. Our guide puts measured amounts next to the claims.

The longer talks

Two long sessions for anyone who wants his whole argument rather than a clip: one on what he calls the weapon and the target, and one on the drug industry and nicotine.
