That’s a fact. We need to understand that the acidic effects of cigarettes are way underestimated.

Nicotine stimulates the body to secrete various acids including gastric acid in the stomach. When the body is dehydrated it becomes overly acidic and this is significant considering the fact that nicotine causes the body to excrete fluids thus causing varying degrees of dehydration. And as the body becomes more dehydrated, more acids are secreted to compensate.
