LOL! I'm not allergic to it, but my son sure is. Poor guy. He went pee pee in the woods one time, while we were fishing, and got poison ivy in the worst place possible. He was only 4 or 5 at the time. Just thinking about it makes me tear up.  Did you find anything that says smoking it has some sort of medicinal value? I didn't find anything.
I did, however, find where some forms of arsenic are being used to treat cancer. That was kind of surprising.

Eat dirt!
It's not sinful, it has nutritional benefits, and think of how people will be drawn to you!

Period.
There is no medical benefit.
Hello?
Is anybody listening?

No one said there was, PP. You are still going to have a hard time making a sin out of it while still drinking coffee though. Same family of alkaloids.

For emphasis.
Smoking is evil, bad, wrong, destructive, cancer-causing and sinful.
And that's all I have to say about that!
C-ya!

Pastor Poster FYI. I don't condone cigarettes! My point is simple be consistent and most people are not when it comes to FOOD vs cigarettes and don't have the same rationale!

First thing in the morning a person could either smoke a cigarette, drink a cup of coffee, or eat an apple to help them wake up. Which do you think God prefers? Summing up the posts around here, the cigarette smoker ends up in Hell, the coffee drinker is holy, and the apple eater is a legalist!
