Basically information please

I used to sleep for an hour after lunch between 1 and 4 pm every day.Sometimes I fell asleep with portion in my mouth.Is it something which would be better to avoid?

I've heard a couple of times that there is in the pouches a tiny peaces of glass mixed with tobacco to make abrasions on gum's tissue in order to better absorption of nicotine.Is there a bit of a truth or it's only a stupid story?

it's a myth (likely put out by people not wanting you to take up the habit)

Welcome to the forum mino.
You can swallow the juice, but some people (myself included) feel a bit sick from the nicotine after doing so. Placing snus towards the front of the mouth helps to reduce drip.

Hey Mino:

I am a new snuser and I just wanted to second this statement. I started with a can of General, and was feeling nauseous from the juice, having to drink it down with a coffee or water at all times. I wondered what i was doing wrong, and I realized I had the portion at the back of my mouth, in my upper lip. There must be alot more saliva generated there or something, but after I realized my mistake, I started putting them in the front of my mouth and it was a completely different experience to be sure. No more mouthful of juices, just a tasty drip every couple minutes, and the nausea almost completely disappeared, I was blaming the nicotine for it before, but realized it was probably the amount of juice.

Anywhere in the front, you can move it to the left or right a couple centimeters if your gums get a bit sore, and with most brands, I find I don't need a beverage at all. If it is still a bit much, try White Portions, they drip less overall, I started with them after the General, but now find myself wanting Regular portions, I am really enjoying the various flavours!

Good luck mino!

yer i dont think your doing anything wrong. Ive noticed i do sometimes suck. Always swallow never spit thats my motto.

Mino snus portions are not intended to be chewed and there is no need to suck them intensively. The nicotine in the portions is absorbed by your gum tissues and not in your stomach so sucking on them will not increase the amout of nic you get from them. If you just like sucking on them then that is fine but it is not necessary.

I chew Oliver Twist pellets and swallow the juice but portions of snus which I like and which are sweet I do not chew but suck them intensively and,of course,swallow its juice.Is it correctly?

[NeonMouse]

Most people swallow the juice produced of Oliver twists and snus. I havent really heard of anyone chewing snus but with OT i used to.

Sometimes i find the juice of Thundersnus a bit harsh but thats probably because its cheap stuff. I dont tend to play with the portion when its in my mouth or move it but some do, so ive heard. I do tend to poke it with my tounge a lot.

Also i dont tend to suck the portion.

Oliver Twists do taste good.... just wish they where a tad stronger.

Or with a meal. Snus is great while you are eating. I think the digestive juices start flowing and make the snus even stronger.

You are not serious,aren't you!?
I'd like to share some experience of my one's month regulary snusing and ask more experienced snusers for opinion.Mostly I've been enjoyed Oliver Twist pellets and I liked it very much,the taste is fantastic.But I'm not sure if I make mistake by way of consuming it:I keep it for a 15 or 20 minutes below my upper lip and when the pellet comes softer I start to chewing it and swalowing juice.I simply can't resist because as I said I liked the taste.I don't know if there is some danger for stomach or organism in general of swalowing.I sent the mail to producer and ask abot my doubts but they replied that "Oliver Twist is chewing tobacco and it's normal to chew it and suck it"(?).I've also got from Sweden recently a few cans of various portion snus to try and had the same problem:the portions which has a bit of sweetness I liked and used to chew,to suck and swallow,which I don't like( like bitter or stronger portions like General classic) I swallow too when the drips come,but not enjoy at all in that. My general question for old snusers is how do they enjoy their portions,do they swallow the juice of its portions which is produced in mouth mixed with saliva and really enjoy in that or get the phenomena as something irelevant?

Not just You. There's nothing like snus after big meal (best with small glass of vodka)

However, when I snus on a full stomach it seems to settle the meal down nicely. That might just be me.

To answer your first question, skoal and copenhagen are American tobacco that resemble los,but most of them are of a much longer cut. They require spitting and heavy use puts you at risk for cancer. Americans call them "dip," which I believe GoVegan already mentioned.
Also, snusing on an empty stomach can drive away your appetite. However, when I snus on a full stomach it seems to settle the meal down nicely. That might just be me.

Has someone experienced the lack of apetite
caused by enjoying snus?I heard something about special snus in order to get slimer but from time I started regulary enjoying snus and Oliver Twist's pellets I had noticed that I had no more apetite like I used to.Before I had been looking forward with a passion to every meal.Now I'm looking forward to every portion of snus instead...
