For some time now, there have been dangerous products on the Snus market that are unfortunately becoming more and more widespread in Europe as well. These include the brands Supreme Snus, Iceberg Snus, Kurwa Snus, Candyshop Snus, Nerds Snus, and many more. We want to bring you closer to the problem with these products that are far too strong and inform you about the dangers.
What is Supreme Snus?
Supreme Snus, Kurwa, Candyshop, Nerds, and many other brands are Snus products with extremely high levels of nicotine that have been circulating in the EU for some time now. Most of these Snus products are tobacco-free, taste like candy, and above all have one thing in common: a reckless nicotine content of up to 250 mg/g. For comparison: "normal" Snus has a nicotine content of 5 to a maximum of 45 mg/g.
Is Supreme Snus dangerous?
The answer is unfortunately as short as it is true: YES! Most of these Snus products like Supreme and Candyshop are manufactured under untraceable conditions somewhere abroad and contain such a high amount of nicotine that they can lead to discomfort, nausea, vomiting, and even a deadly overdose. You might be thinking this can't be true - unfortunately it is, because nicotine is a nerve poison and in high concentration, it is life-threatening. In Russia, such products have already led to deaths in children and adolescents, which is why Snus was ultimately completely banned. This is not in the interest of consumers, manufacturers, or retailers. Brands like Supreme Snus not only endanger health but also the Snus market in the EU - so it's best to stay away from them!
Is Supreme Snus legal?
Products like Supreme, Candyshop, and Kurwa are mostly so-called ""Nicotine Pouches"" and as tobacco-free Snus, they are currently not regulated by the applicable EU tobacco law.
Why isn't Supreme Snus available at Snushus?
Quite simply: because Supreme Snus, Candy Shop, Kurwa & Co. are not safe products! No one knows where and how such Snus products are manufactured, which is why you cannot rely on the nicotine information on the packaging. At Snushus, we stand for a responsible handling of nicotine products and therefore only include products in our range that are manufactured under professional conditions and do not harm health in unexpected ways.
We have also developed our own strength scale, which evaluates the strength of each product individually and comprehensively from 1 to 5. Strength is not only determined by the nicotine content - but also by the type of chewing tobacco, moisture and pH levels, pouch size, etc.
Does Supreme Snus cause addiction?
Nicotine is the addictive substance in tobacco and tobacco substitute products, which is why Supreme Snus and similar products make you addicted extremely quickly and strongly compared to ""normal"" Snus and cigarettes. The higher the nicotine content, the faster and stronger the addiction. In addition, the body gets used to the extremely high nicotine content when consuming Supreme, so that with ""normal"" Snus and cigarettes, you no longer feel any effect and have much stronger withdrawal symptoms.
