In research done by the National Cancer Institute...the effect of nicotine was compared to the effect of the known carcinogens..or cancer

Both the nicotine and the carcinogens interfered with the body's natural process of killing off the unhealthy cells that could eventually develop
into tumors...

Dr. Phillip Dennis..who lead the study...hopes the finding can lead to new drugs to block nicotine's effects.

Nicotine replacement is prescribed to be used temporarily...generally for about three months..Dr. Lirio Covey..who runs a smoking cessation program in New York City...thinks for the short term it's okay.
Lirio Covey/New York State Psychiatric Inst.
The harm that we know from smoking is far greater than the possible harm than the lower level of nicotine that is delivered in the replacements.
Kirsty Guster...who just quit with the help of nicotine patches would agree.

Two months on the patch is far better than smoking for six years you know.
It may not be harmless...and should be used wisely:

Fire officials say they don't yet know how the fire started. No one was inside at the time.
They know some pallets were burning. They're not yet sure if there were any other materials inside.
They're also trying to keep the flames from damaging a house next door.

It seems this bird fell off the truck going to the slaughterhouse and landed out in front of Joe Stanley's Richmond home.
He found "Fannie Fryer" as he calls her on the double yellow line.
The chicken was unconscious, but after Joe picked her up she came alive.

Now Fanny follows her lifesaver around the yard. She's even taken to eating dog food.
Joe said she technically belongs to Tyson but is hoping he'll be able to keep her.
