Nicotine patches for children? Makes perfect sense to some researchers, and it makes a LOT of sense for the companies that manufacture the nicotine patches. With smoking rates slowly falling in the U.S., the market for nicotine patches doesn't have a strong future. But if you can line up schoolchildren to wear them and, of course, get them hooked on nicotine for life, then you generate an extraordinary volume of repeat business.
Schoolchildren are already widely dosed with Ritalin, a strong narcotic. Nicotine is no more bizarre. Make no mistake: these studies on nicotine are little more than a ploy to find new victims to addict to this deadly drug that has already wreaked untold havoc on the U.S. population over the last hundred years. I can't wait to see a study that says children wearing nicotine patches score better on math and reading skills tests. Maybe they'll sell nicotine candy in the high school vending machines right next to the liquid candy known as soft drinks.

"Big Tech and mainstream media are constantly trying to silence the independent voices that dare to bring you the truth about toxic food ingredients, dangerous medications and the failed, fraudulent science of the profit-driven medical establishment.
Email is one of the best ways to make sure you stay informed, without the censorship of the tech giants (Google, Apple, Facebook, Twitter, YouTube, etc.). Stay informed and you'll even likely learn information that may help save your own life."
