I quit smoking 12 weeks ago but now i cant kick the gum.What are the long term affects of nicotine gum? -
the same as nicotine! You are very addicted to nicotine and at least you don-t have hte extra pollutants and yellow teeth. You are one step down now so at least celebrate that! Otherwise let your body use the gum for a little while then decrease your gum by a peice a day every week. First week take away one peice every day. The next week take away two etc. You should get down to one peice and then finally you will be done, don-t try cold turkey you could have withdraw symtpoms
here are a couple webites i think u might find helpful:

however, they dont say to much simply because there isnt a lot of information found on them but it stills has some info.
These are really good tips I have heard to stop smoking. Hope they help.
Because a smoker forms the habit of putting something in their mouth, and it-s like always a cigarette. you will need something else to put into your mouth, like lollipops.
Have a peppermint each time you crave a cigarette, the craving will go away somehow.
Be sure to have lots of water, the nicotine will wash out within 48 - 72 hours. Let-s say, the same amount as some scientist discovered. 6 - 8 glasses a day.
Make sure you get a lot of fresh air and exercise, it will help your brain recover
Have faith. Thinking you can-t do it over and over won-t help.

Long-term Use of Nicotine Gum Is Associated With Hyperinsulinemia and Insulin Resistance
This is an excellent question b/c i currently trying to quit, and am on the gum. And i was wondering the same thing, since it doesn-t have all the tar, and poisons, and cancer causing cargingins (sp?) like an actual cigarette, only the nicotine, will it then cause any harm at all?
Looking forward to seeing the answers u receive.
