Tobacco has healing properties

[rectifythis]

Not sure if this has ever been posted before but I thought this might be a good place to pass on the info that not only is tobacco extremely enjoyable in the form of a cigar, but it also has topical healing propreties. I go to an herbalist and she has in the past told my aunt and sister to put tobacco on things to heal it. The aunt had tennis elbow I believe and my sister had something similar (tendonitis maybe??). You can use the leaves themselves or she will even recommend getting a bag of chew and even using that. Not trying to get any responses, just thought it was good info for you all. My .02

Dunno if I really buy into that, but it certainly falls under the category of "can't hurt".

I've heard the same, but I kinda see it like the healing properties of Windex.

Don't be crazy; you drink it! I like mine neat. Think we can talk AVB into doing a review in the Saloon?

I recall my father and grandfather using chewing tobacco as a "drawing agent" on boils, splinters and other things.

It's ok, I was a skeptic too.

Here you go. There's all kinds of history on it.

From a mental health perspective, I think cigar smoking has exceptional healing properties. After a really bad day, a cigar works wonders on my psyche. I’m sure it lowers my blood pressure while relieving stress.
