Why do I feel sick after smoking certain cigarettes/tobacco?

I've never quite understood why I feel sick after smoking certain tobaco products, but not others. I'm not a big smoker, I smoke 1-3 probably 4-5 days a week, so pretty infrequently.

If I smoke 1 B&H Silver, Camel, L&B or a rollie of Amber Leaf, I often end up feeling a bit nauseous, and if I smoke more than one of those brands within a short period of time I have actually been physically sick in the past. However, if I smoke Marlboro Lights, or even Reds, they never give me any nauseous feeling at all.

Can anyone help shed any light on why certain brands make me feel like puking, and others don't, even if the nicotine content is the same, or in some cases greater?

Thanks

This is good!!! Stop smoking!!

Not feeling good after a single cigarette made me stop for almost 5 months without noticing the lack of cigs at all. Twas amazing.

You should be proud :wink:
No idea but I'd guess maybe something to do with the other ingredients in there? Not sure what those would be, not being a smoker myself, but its most likely your body's way of telling you it doesnt want to die a premature death

i have the same thing sometimes :s-smilie:
golden v always used to make me feel sick until i started smoking it cos it was the only tobacco they had in the only shop i can get served in...
and a red made me throw up the other night... but i think thats just cos i had too much to drink

how long have you been smoking? i offered my friend a cigarette the other day and she only smokes when other people offer her saves.
she threw up after smoking 3/4 of it

but i find smoking makes me feel more sick now than it did when i first started smoking

are you under any stress because thats what some people thought the case was with me... however odd that may sound

I totally agree, when i smoke newport 100's, i feel absolutly fine, but when i smoke camels, i feel nauseas/sick in the stomach. so idk, i try to buy newport 100's, but once in a while when i dont have money, i smoke one of my dad's camel's.
try newport 100's, there the best ones i have smoked yet

Idk, newport are starting to make me sick to my stomach and I've been smoking them for a few months....I do chain smoke sometimes but it was never a problem until just recently
one night i was at work and i just finished my cigarette that my co worker (like my second mom) snagged off my nan (this was before she knew i smoked) and i finished that after smoking it in quarters. i asked her for one and i smoked it and then i was getting picked up from work and she snuck another pall mall to me and i smoked it after a bit of getting home and i couldnt smoke the last quarter of it so i passed it to my cousin (younger than me by 3 years) and me my aunt and cousin went for a mountain ride and we went to turn round and i said holly imma throw up and i open the door and threw up. my aunt said
