Nicotine is found in tobacco, tobacco comes from the herb Nicotiana Tabacum.
One cigarette contains approximately 10 milligrams of Nicotine.
Since not all of the fumes go into the persons lungs, each time a person puffs a cigarette, only 1 or 2 milligrams of Nicotine gets into the body. It may not seem like much but in fact, just one drop of pure Nicotine would kill a human being.
The time taken is 7 seconds to reach the brain; which is a very short time. The reason that it does not take long is because there is a chemical in the brain called Acetylcholine that carries messages between individual brain cells. Acetylcholine is responsible for maintaining normal heart function, healthy respiration, movement of muscles and cognitive functions
