Are One Or Two Dips A Day Harmful?
I recently quit smoking. I am 18 yrs old and I had been smoking on and off for a year. I recently started dipping and I've been doing about two dips a day for 3 weeks now. I know you're going to tell me that dipping is bad either way but is one to two dips a day really terrible?
