Nicotine is good for you

At least, it's good for your brain, Rory Sutherland's doctor friend tells us, very good for ulcerative colitis, which I really don't want to get, and it helps with blood vessel growth and even with pre-eclampsia.

The link on ulcerative colitis is the one to follow, but only if you are prepared to read about the author leading "a reasonably bloody diarrhea free life these days".

For nicotine, it's the 'delivery system' that is the problem. Alcohol, on the other hand, seems to be pretty much good for nothing on its own - the delivery system is probably the only benefit to it.
