That number doesn’t look right. EU caps it at 1.0 and I’ve never seen a cigarette over 0.8 and those are noticeably rougher than 0.6 which is standard. 17,2 would be crazy even for the US sized portions of things. Haven’t smoked in years but it couldn’t have changed this way.
This site suggests the average cigarette has between 10-12 milligrams of Nicotine, but that the human body only absorbs ~1.2-1.8mg per cigarette smoked
I found the same but it’s an order of magnitude difference. My hypothesis is that it could be some metric/imperial conversion error that’s being parroted by multiple websites that didn’t spot it because that would require a point of reference.
