    Now that’s an interesting point sage, and one I’ve seen several times here on the forum and one I’ve often wondered about. Do we actually know this to be the case or are we just deducing it from some other info?

    The reason I ask is that I can easily go 2 hours with a purportedly spent pris and not miss a beat. However, two hours with out any snus at all and I can feel it. May be it’s all in my head but I certainly feel like I’m getting at least some nic well past the first 30 minutes or so. Any clues?

      I find myself needing more in my 5th year of snusing.When I first started I just needed a few a day,now I go through 12-20 portions in a day.So yes,my addiction has gotten worse.

        I've been pretty stable with my use. I don't think I'm using any more or less than I used to.

        I also dislike white portions. I'll use them when that's the only way a snus comes, but I prefer original by a wide margin.

          Most of it is absorbed within the first 10 minutes of use, then it starts to slow dramatically from there.

            Thanks Sage.

            Two points of intrest from the article. The first might explain the reason why snus seems to release nic for a longer period of time

            The second might explain why it is easier to cut back from starks to regualrs once ciggeretts are eliminated.

            After the fast increase in blood nicotine concentration during smoking, the nicotine is eliminated quite rapidly after having finished the cigarette. During snus use, however, the nicotine concentration plateaus after the pinch has been taken out.

            In contrast to cigarette smokers, snus users do not compensate their nicotine uptake when switching to a low nicotine product. A decrease of the nicotine content of snus by 50 % results in a decrease of the nicotine uptake by about 50 %.

                I don't touch white portions anymore; it's either los or brown portions for me. I use 02 pretty frequently, but I would consider it a brown portion, since the sachet is wet during the manufacturing process.

                  Ya I agree.No whites for me.I do like 01 and 02 but I also do not consider them to be white portions because the portion does go through the wetting process during manufacturing.

                    I too don't really care for the whites anymore, I thought I did then I realized all the snus I use reg. are not white at all. I do like LS whites and Roda Lacket, but I can't get the LS and haven't bought Roda in a while.

                      I do not like those portions in your can. I do not like them Sam I am.

                      I do not like white in the light. I do not like white late at night.
                      I don't like brown on the ground. I don't like bround spinning round

                      Give me los in a chair. Give me los atop the stairs.
                      Give me los both here and there. Give me los anywhere

                      I do not like those portions in your can. I do not like them Sam I am.
