About how many people smoke cigarettes in the US?

What is the nicotine content of the average cigarette?
The nicotine ontent in an average cigarette will be around 2.5 to 3.2mg. I believe a Virginia Slim Ultralight has about 2.5mg, and a Newport 100 has about 3.2mg.
I could be reading your explanation in a way you may not have intended, however, I believe you may be combining two facts about nicotine into one definition, when in reality, they have little to do with one another. Yes, in the past, nicotine was widely used as an insecticide due to the fact that it functions as an antiherbivore chemical, with particular specificity to insects. This information refers to the biosynthesis taking place in the roots, and accumulation in the leaves of the dry plant from which it comes. This information has very little to do with the consumption of nicotine in traditional cigarettes. The correct formula for Nicotine is C10 H14 N2. An average cigarette yields about 1-3 mg of absorbednicotine, although you will see a much higher dosage often stated on the packaging, normally a range of 10-15 mg. This higher dosage is NOT referring to the INHALED ABSORBED amount a smoker will receive once it is burned, and converted to a smoke form capable of being inhaled. Also, you may notice that the nicotine patch is available in it's most common dosage, 21mg, however, only approximately 1-2mg of nicotine will actually be absorbed into the bloodstream. There are many factors that are to be considered when assessing the amount of nicotine the body will absorb. The type of tobacco, whether the smoke is inhaled, and whether a filter is used, are all things to be considered. Also, chewing tobacco, dipping tobacco, snus, and snuff all have a much higher amount of nicotine released into the body.

When travelling to Spain, UK citizens need to be aware that the Spanish authorities have domestic legislation, which places documentary obligations upon anyone holding or moving large quantities of duty-paid cigarettes (above 800). One of the practical effects of this is that UK travellers, in the same way as everybody else who is holding or moving large quantities of duty-paid cigarettes in Spain (between 800 and 1200), must produce a receipt from a legitimate retailer and, for even larger quantities of cigarettes (over 1200), a form known as a 'Documento de Acompanamiento'.
