Current research is revealing the distinct health benefits of the nutrient nicotine (as found in food and also in nicotine patches). And now we know that nicotine is an incredibly safe compound, and it was NEVER addictive. Don’t believe me? The FDA still allows the tobacco industry to add 599 different man-made chemicals to the nicotine in tobacco products, causing the known damage from cigarettes and other tobacco products. It is not the nicotine that causes harm.
[I started researching this for my own Long-Covid –over 4 months of covid variant respiratory ailments –leading to repeated pneumonia. I have been hearing from hundreds who are also unable to pull out of similar Long-Covid symptoms. What follows is the result of my search for answers for all of us.]
Please do not miss this very useful and potentially life-saving information by Dr. Bryan Ardis. The spiderweb of lies of the government continue to be revealed. The 30-year coverup regarding nicotine is central to the last 4 years and part of what paved the way for it.
A mind-blowing 44 minutes.
Health Benefits of Nicotine for Many Devastating Diseases:
Emerging research is gaining recognition in the medical community on the potential health benefits of nicotine, challenging long-held misconceptions.
Nicotine has been found to:
• Combat neurodegenerative diseases such as Parkinson’s, Alzheimer’s, ADHD or other movement disorders such as Tourette’s syndrome. (PubMed studies here, here, here, here and here).
• Show effectiveness in treating multiple sclerosis (MS), offering new hope for patients. (MS studies here and here.
• Show effectiveness in treating autism. (PubMed studies here, here, and here).
• Nicotine treatment can reverse hypothyroidism-induced learning and memory impairment. (PubMed study.)
• Increase focus, alertness, sharper mental acuity, and enhanced memory recall. (PubMed studies here, here, here, here, here)
• Have enhanced effects on cognition and may partially compensate for cognitive deficits associated with the misuse of drugs. (PubMed study)
• Reverse schizophrenia (PubMed studies here, here)
• Dr. Ardis explores studies on different cancers including glioblastomas and astrocytomas. See frames 255-294 here.
• Slow Cognitive Decline in Down Syndrome. NIH Study underway here.
• Lastly, this very helpful study repeatedly notes, “nicotine is also a potential candidate for treating ulcerative colitis, IBD, rheumatoid arthritis, osteoarthritis, multiple sclerosis, and myocarditis.” The researchers note that “despite the health risks of toxic and/or carcinogenic chemicals in cigarettes, nicotine (by itself) has beneficial effects on a wide number of systemic inflammatory responses.”
By targeting specific receptors in the body, nicotine provides relief and significantly improves overall quality of life for patients.
Nicotine and Near Miraculous Recovery from Long-Haulers
In January 2023, a published study highlights 4 case studies of long-hauler COVID patients and their miraculous recovery in just 6 days, of using 7mg Nicotine Patches topically! Conclusion of study: “Treating several individuals suffering from post-COVID-19 syndrome with a nicotine patch application, we witnessed improvements ranging from immediate and substantial —to complete remission in a matter of days.” (Source)
Will I Become Addicted? “Transcutaneous administration of nicotine patches ensures constant serum levels without relevant peak levels. Thus, we did not see any development of nicotine dependence in the context of nicotine patch therapy.”
From the same study:
For Myocarditis:
Here is that study: https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/26507386/

Patches and Gum Brands That Are Recommended:

For Preventative: Rugby Clear Nicotine Transdermal Patches 14mg, cut as below…
For Long-Hauler COVID sufferers: Rugby Clear Nicotine Transdermal Patches 7 mg, uncut.
Ardis states that Rugby brand seems to be less irritating to the skin when you take it off and apply a new piece.
DIRECTIONS For Prevention, Long-Haulers COVID Sufferers, and C-19 Vaccine-Injured:
Enlarge to read.
Important Note from Dr. Ardis: “Every cell in your body has nicotine receptors including the gut. A few people, when chewing and swallowing nicotine gum get nauseous and vomit or get loose stools. This is because so much of the venom in spike proteins are attached to the nicotine receptors that line your entire bowel lining, and when nicotine is present, the massive amount of venom in the bowel lining gets released and you will feel like you have food poisoning.
“Why? Because venoms are poison, and God designed the human body to throw up poison and poop out loosely, all poisons. If this happens, please switch to nicotine patches. The nicotine skips the bowels and gets absorbed into your blood stream through your skin in less than 30 seconds. This is why I (Dr. Ardis) do patches every day. Most people have no reaction to the gum or the nicotine orally, but some do. Using a nicotine patch mitigates that problem.
“Many people are benefiting from buying organic tobacco leaf online, boiling the leaves, and doing a foot soak for 20-30 minutes several times a week to absorb enough that way.”
UPDATE: 6 days after starting (1) 7mg section of patch daily, I have a report. I saw little, if any, change the first 3 days, but towards the end of the third day, I felt slightly less dizzy and the non-stop racking cough was less jarring. Then, stupid me, I FORGOT the 4th patch due to brain fog. Totally forgot to put it on before bed! (I am consistently going to bed between 9 and 10:30 now which has been amazing for me since I used to be up writing at 1-3AM many nights). It was 24 hours later that I realized I forgot it. I put on the day 5 patch, and by the end of the day, my red eyes were gone, the cough was a third less and very productive like my lower lungs were clearing out. My O2 with a pulse ox went from a consistent 95 up to 98, and my heart rate went down from 95-104 into the acceptable range of 86-88. SO, something is kicking in as I’m less irritable and the dizziness and shakiness are much, much less. I am feeling more motivated and pray it will continue as I continue patching for the next 3 weeks. At that time, I will join my husband in just using (1) 3 mg section per day as prevention.
“If you tell a lie big enough and keep repeating it, people will eventually come to believe it. The lie can be maintained only for such time as the State can shield the people from the political, economic, and/or military consequences of the lie. It thus becomes vitally important for the State to use all of its powers to repress dissent, for the truth is the mortal enemy of the lie, and thus by extension, the truth is the greatest enemy of the State.” ~Joseph Goebbles

interesting…henbane is a nightshade too. I was just thinking of your aricle on hyosycamus and connecting some dots in my head.
This whole thing seems a bit far out but it’s all very fascinating.
Also, I’m wondering about the ornamental flower, Nicotiana. It says on the seed packet that it is poisonous, but now I wonder….Maybe it would be safe for the foot soak??
Strictly Medicinal Seeds sells tobacco seed & plants if anyone wants to grow their own.
Thanks for posting this. I learn so much here! Very cool;)

Dear Jacque, Thank you for your always so well written and researched posts. I came across a video by Tina Peers that describes Augmented NAC from the Italian Zero Spike protein project (zerospike.org) as an incredible helpful treatment for long-Covid and for those of us who have been impacted due to “shedding”. Here is the video link – https://youtu.be/Le715N8uVco?si=tff8fWL1m7zPxj0W –
Whilst we never were jabbed we had been exposed to a person in a car for hours who had been jabbed with one of the “experimental injections” that made people “magnetic”. He said he had terrible side effects from the shot. Shortly after we became ill. Due to your posts I got rid of the effects within a week – taking all the supplements you recommended in your protocols and an extreme amount of Vitamin C. My partner was struggling longer (about 2 months). Even though it is a long time ago I gave him the Augmented NAC a week ago and he felt that the augmented NAC shifted something for the better. He felt a fatigue left. I hope this will be helpful to some… Thank you for this post again regarding the Nicotine. It gave my partner his sense of smell back within 30 minutes during that time. God bless you all.
Jacqueline
Danae, thank you for that recommendation.
I am interested in learning how the augmented is different than the NAC we are all using.
I am so thankful that my protocol helped and excited to see how the nicotine patches work for shedding! I am sure that I have had a shedding (possibly 2) with this wicked spike protein, and have been quite ill.
Blessings to you both, friend!
Warmly,
Jacque
Abby
Hi. Would you follow the same procedures for Alzheimer’s as the Covid procedures? I’m having trouble following along with that side of the nicotine patches.
Jacqueline
Hi, Abby,
Yes, using nicotine has been found to help in both Covid and Alzheimer’s. This sentence just under the video links to 5 studies that show this:
“Nicotine has been found to: Combat neurodegenerative diseases such as Parkinson’s, Alzheimer’s, ADHD or other movement disorders such as Tourette’s syndrome.” (PubMed studies here, here, here, here and here).
This is one of the studies that mentions how nicotine (as in nicotine patches) helps with Alzheimer’s: https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/9303280/
What dose someone uses depends on them and their response. There is a lot of nuance in the post as I can’t directly say how much someone should use.
I hope that helps some!
Blessings,
Jacque
Danae
What about people that develop leukemia after the shot… is Nicotine important/effective in the treatment too?
Thank you.
Jacqueline
Hi, Danae, I don’t know yet about nicotine for leukemias (it isn’t mentioned in the list of what nicotine helps with), but ivermection seems to be a wonderful fit.
Read this by Dr. Wm. Makis: https://makismd.substack.com/p/ivermectin-powerful-agent-against
I pray this is helpful! ~ Jacque
Danae
Thank you, Jacque! I know that my friend took Ivermectin already right after the jab her husband forced her out of love to take! …perhaps she has to take another round… will tell her… All your work is simply amazing – like a lighthouse of love…
Danae
On the ZeroSpike Protein project (zerospike.org) they just share this: “In laboratory tests, standard NAC demonstrated low levels of spike protein denaturation, not sufficient for a robust detoxification process. We therefore asked a team of technology experts, physicians, scientists, and inventors to identify and develop innovative methodologies and applications for the “enhancement” of NAC to improve its antioxidant properties by optimizing the electromagnetic expression of the molecule itself. It was then possible to demonstrate in-vitro conformational alterations of the spike, increasing the denaturation of the protein to nearly 100 percent within 24 hours.”
These days some people experiment with scalar waves to enhance products and it seems to have some effect. My guess is that they used scalar wave or similiar as they mentioned “that they optimized the electromagnetic expression”. But, of course, this is just a guess – I could not find any clear facts about the process as of yet.
Sorry, to hear that you had Covid reactions from shedding… especially, as you helped so many others… I underestimated shedding. I still refuse not to hug vaxxed people… even though it does pose I risk as I had to find out. Most of the time I still get nosebleeds after 4 hours coming from an event mixing with vaxxed. Yet, I know with God all is well and luckily I am armed with the knowledge you and some others in Jonathan Ottos series have shared so generously.
Another factor I integrated was Zeolith as Klinoptilolith powder – ever day – it is slightly different from TRS Detox – as the TRS can go into the smallest places to detox. This Zeolith -when stirred before drinking creates ions- that can donate “ions” to the body. After a week I felt especially at night an “electric” sensation. It is not just cleaning but donating trace minerals etc. It is for me a perfect complement to the TRS Detox. It helped my partner to heal from a sciatic nerve attack within a week with your DIY Protandim… it was a miracle. After 2 days he could walk without pain – after a week the last pain his back was gone. I know your DIY Protandim played a role as when I did not give it in combo – he felt a slight pain return the next day (probably the milk thistle? Liver?) … so we continued with Zeolith and Protandim and he healed quicker then ever. Nature is amazing! So again thank you.
Jeannette
Oh, I’m so sorry you’ve been feeling sick “long term.” Yet I am also thankful that you are doing better now. I am definitely looking into this. I have had brain fog since 12/2020. Had to stop working within weeks of the virus. So now I have some hope! Always trusting the Lord for His timing and whether He’ll heal me. But He keeps bringing me information, often through YOU. I am also well cared for and very blessed.
God bless you in your healing, and all you do. ❤️
Jacqueline
Aw, Jeannette,
I can’t guarantee anything, but many are using a small part of a patch daily and by all accounts, it is helping as the studies show.
I am so thankful you are in a good place and very prayerful that you will still see maximal restoration of your full sharpness and mental strength.
You are loved!
Jacque
Jeannette
Jacque,
Thank you for your kind note. I ordered some patches and just started the regimen yesterday!
We did have one question. Is it OK to continue daily doses of TRS while on this? Or should I pause on that?
Jacqueline
Jeannette, Yes, I have not ever stopped TRS. On my worst days, I take 10-20, and find my inflammation lessens to a noticeable degree. I keep detoxing all the time in the background!
Neat story: I never had a heavy metals (hair) and minerals test (blood) done, but did in February. My heavy metals were impressive and my minerals are all in the normal range, except Na and it is bc I take so much
Himalayan pink salt. Dr. P. said he is also impressed but to cut back just a little on the H. salt. 🙂 I can send a SS of those results on email if you’d like.
Btw, I have been feeling much stronger and 3 nights ago I had NO coughing – which has continued, so I can sleep!!
I have written on taking Lupron 30 years ago here: https://deeprootsathome.com/uk-halts-puberty-blocker-my-horror-story-for-infertility/
The decline of my bones is driving so much of this, bc my bone marrow (think sick bones!) hasn’t been functioning properly and my RBCs, Hemoglobin, Hematocrit, and O2 has been affected.
We are correcting that by supplementing liver, marrow, spleen, and also with homeopathy.
Sorry to go on, but I am learning so much!
Hugs to you, friend,
Jacque
Jessica
I should add – these respiratory illnesses at this point seem to settle in my chest for longer than normal once or twice (as I speak) – wet cough I guess you could say. I dont normally get stuff like bronchitis or pneumonia, but it’s more often I’m sick with something like this, it seems potential now.
Jessica
I believe my first comment was lost perhaps, so just adding for context. I dont beleive I have covid long haul symptoms and I honestly dont know if I’ve ever had covid. Im sure I’ve been exposed to the shedding of others though. That to say, my family and I have been sick almost every month since Oct, with distinct illnesses, some kind of the same, some different…. mostly respiratory. This last one has given me a wet cough that is just hanging on but not super productive. Do you think nicotine could help me prevent from getting sick so much or perhaps from contracting something like pneumonia or bronchitis that could last longer? Its not normal for us to be sick this often! I’m hesitant to do the patches or gum as I’m not sure my husband would be keen. I can always pass it by him, but almost feel more comfortable doing tobacco leaf soaks. I’m more familiar with herbal stuff anyways. If you think the patches or gum could really help, I may just need to brooch the subject with him, but curious your thoughts. Thanks, so so much Jacque. You are a positive godly influence in my life as I raise a young family 🙂
Jacqueline
Jessica, I have not technically had Cvd either, but I KNOW I have had several sheddings. Yes, we can get long-covid from shedding.
The patches will work at 7 mg/ day with long-covid. It took me longer to respond that I thought it would, but it has kicked in now and I feel better each day (In all ways).
Sleep can finally be deep without nighttime coughing! I do believe that you could just use tobacco leaves, boil them and soak your feet as Dr. Ardis mentions in the post.
Let me know how you do! I am praying for you as you proceed.
Sending peace,
Jacque
Jessica
Thank you so much for taking the time to respond, and for your prayer. I trust we are in Yahwehs capable hands, so I’m just praying for guidance on how to proceed. I’m so weary of being sick. The funny thing is – between sickness, I truly feel just fine, no symptoms pretty much at all, but we are sick so often. This being the case, maybe my husband will be willing to at least try this. Again, this is where prayer comes in :). Thank you again. I’m glad to hear you are feeling better! Are you on the prevention dose now?
Jacqueline
Emily, I am at 7 mg/ day for long-cvd, not prevention. This post is more clear why and what I’m doing: https://deeprootsathome.com/why-i-now-use-nicotine-patches-but-have-never-smoked/
Jessica
Jacquie, I hope you dont mind me picking your brain for a moment – not trying to be fascicious- really wanting this to be an answer to my re-occuring sickness, but have to ask…. if the nicotine itself is not addictive, how do the patches presumably help people quite smoking? Did you run across this at all in your research? Again, not trying to throw a curve ball, and maybe you’ve come across an answer for this – but would be really curious your take or what you may have found out. Thank you!
Jessica
Jacqueline
Jessica, have you read both posts and watched both videos? This one is by far more complete in all the info: https://deeprootsathome.com/nicotine-healing-long-covid-ms-autism-parkinsons-alzheimers/
And this one: https://deeprootsathome.com/why-i-now-use-nicotine-patches-but-have-never-smoked/
The nicotine patches are ONLY nicotine with none of the addictive drugs that have been added to cigarettes.
I think you will find much research and all the links throughout and be able to come to your own conclusions.
I am glad you felt comfortable to ask. It is all there!
Sending peace,
Jacque
Nora Apple
Hi my friend!! I just ordered the patch. I’m quite tired of being sick and I’m sure my wonderful husband is quite tired of taking care of me, which he does wonderfully! I’ll keep you posted!
Love you!!
Jacqueline
Okay, Nora! I am praying! It took me fully 11 days to really know it’s doing something; I was just quite sick and it still needs to boot more spike protein off the nicotine receptors!
Keep me in the loop!
Love you,
Jacque
Joy
Hi Jacque,
Have you tried Iver or Fenben yet? Just started on it recently as I’ve heard it’s very effective for long haul.
Blessings
Jacqueline
Hi, Joy! I do take Ivy, but have not tried Fenben yet. I am doing so many things that I want to be able to better know what is what!
I have some nasty other things going on that I am also treating, so too much might not be good right now. I wrote about it here:
https://deeprootsathome.com/why-i-now-use-nicotine-patches-but-have-never-smoked/
Thanks for thinking of it to share with me, though!
Big hugs,
Jacque
AnaS
Hello!
My husband started to get some kind of arthritis on his hand and its bothering him a lot. Is there a protocol for arthritis?
Thank you so much!
AnaS
Jacqueline
Hi, Ana,
I don’t know a specific protocol for arthritis, but the general usage for long-covid is 7 mg./d. Rugby patches are gentle on the skin unlike some of the other brands.
For prevention, the protocol is 3 mg/d.
I would start with 3 mg (take a 21 mg. patch and cut it 6 times to get 7- 3 mg patches). If that isn’t quite cutting it, I would not be afraid to go to 5.25 mg by cutting the 21 mg patch into quarters, or cut it 3 times to make 7 mg patches.
I wore a 7 mg patch for almost 3 weeks, started feeling SO much better and have dropped down to 5.25 mg/d now. I am staying there for a while.
I hope that helps!
Jacque
Katie
Jacque,
My husband and I have been shifting paradigms for 12+ years and each time we do, it seems to get easier. But our own recent studies have brought us to question a paradigm that is very ingrained in our beliefs and this one is proving difficult to wrap our minds around: that viruses do not exist. Have you heard of that?? That is not to say that disease does not exist, but viruses are not the cause of any disease because they don’t exist. These two podcasts w/ Drs. Sam & Mark Bailey are just a spring board for more intensive research.
https://www.westonaprice.org/podcast/472-question-the-virus-narrative/#gsc.tab=0
https://www.westonaprice.org/podcast/virus-faqs/#gsc.tab=0
We’re reading “Super Gut” by Dr. William Davis and it fits right in with the above info – Dr. David explains how our gut lining breaks down, allows proliferation of bad bacteria, fungi & their toxins, and leads to all manner of chronic illness.
Anyway – we’ll never stop learning, will we?
Katie
Jacqueline
Katie,
I have had some trouble grasping that one, too. In nursing school, we studied named viruses, but we knew they were not particularly deadly and that healthy 1973 bodies could fight a virus..
Read this post by Steve Kirsch: https://kirschsubstack.com/p/has-the-virus-been-isolated-yes?
My take is that there are viruses, like the yearly different flu strains (from the original coronavirus), but that they have been altered to be more harmful to us for years… lots of biolabs making things more deadly.
Interesting topic! It would be fun to find the time to listen to WAP podcasts. I respect their opinion on so much!
Sending peace,
Jacque
Danae
Thanks, Katie, This is indeed a super interesting topic. Andrew Kaufman has created a film “The Terrain” that discusses the subject. I was in my own healing journey recognising that the gut is vital in healing. Once I realised that I came across some old research with Pasteur and Bechamp. It was literately the question between virus/pathogens vs. terrain. This was a breakthrough for me. It made total sense and whilst I think there are “triggers” that we call “viruses, germs, bacteria” I know that they can only do “harm” if the terrain / microbiome of the gut is weakened. If people would be aware of that truth they would feel empowered and stay away from antibiotics (as a child I was exposed to an antibiotics MD and got a major health episode from Penicillin. My entire body was covered it red dots…). To this day once I realised that Penicillin is a mold cultured antibiotic I suspect that this is the root cause for my mold sensitivity (even in cheeses like Parmesan which I love). I found a link here:
https://www.westonaprice.org/health-topics/notes-from-yesteryear/germ-theory-versus-terrain-the-wrong-side-won-the-day/#gsc.tab=0
Anyhow, let’s keep empowering each other – this is the way forward! All of you have a wonderful day and endless blessings of joy for all of us…
Jon
Can you give an update on your progress? I have been experiencing brain fog and have tried different things. It seems to help and then returns. It seems to return after I catch a cold. I was going to try the patches but I was hoping you could give an update.
Jacqueline
Hi, Jon,
I know that using (cut to approx. 7 mg.) nicotine patches pulled me out of a prolonged and very fatiguing long-covid episode (mid Dec 2023 thru April, 2024), however, in May 2024, I found out that I had issues with my kidneys that originally started in nursing school over 50 years ago. I decided to not overload my system with just one more thing, but it certainly helped for what I used the patches for.
If you can use the Rugby patches and they don’t irritate your skin, keep a little journal and see over time if things improve.
I hope that helps,
Jacque
Jon
I have realized that what I was struggling with was toxic mold from a house I lived in. We have singed moved out and I am in the process of detoxing. Have you ever written on mold? Thank you. I have found your website to be such a huge blessing.
Jacqueline
Hi, Jon,
Are you detoxing with TRS? It does detox mycotoxins and aflatoxins (mold), and that is mentioned in this post: https://deeprootsathome.com/why-zeolite-is-so-good-for-cleaning-up-the-body/
The specific studies that mention molds are #2, #3, and #10. You will find them interesting.
If you are detoxing with TRS, I can find you in my records and email you specific anecdotal stories on how it is helping families who suffer from mold.
Hope this helps,
Jacqueline
vincent nania
my good friend has ALS. can you give me any remedies?
Jacqueline
Hi, Vincent,
Is your friend in the early, mid, or late stages? If it’s early or mid, we can fight it and give him/her a greater will/purpose to fight it – to be proactive – in which case patients all do better. I was involved with one family (adding 3 years of pretty decent quality of life), thus we delayed the inevitable and the last weeks were not as traumatic as they would have been otherwise. That said, everyone is different and we cannot predict outcomes.
You can reach me at [email protected] if you feel led.
Sending peace,
Jacqueline

What claims does the article make about nicotine and neurodegenerative diseases such as Parkinson’s and Alzheimer’s? bbe
Jacqueline
If you read the article and watch the video, you will see the studies and historical data that Dr. Ardis is bringing forth. I urge you to do that. many are using nicotine with good results. ~J
