Giving up smoking can be difficult, but nicotine pouches like Zyn are thought to make it easier. However, what a lot of people don't realize is that these products can cause issues in and of themselves. Studies show that tobacco pouches can cause receding gums because these patches cause a "toxic response" in people's gum cells.
One person who knows that personally is social media sensation Emma Chamberlain. In a viral TikTok, she remarked how her gum receding was "getting worse" and that she used Zyn.
