You very well could be less prone to the nicotine effects. Everyone's physiology is different. It's quite interesting, in my line of work I see this a lot. One person could have a BGL of 45 and still be talking normally, but have a chief complaint of, not feeling "quite right", other people will be unconscious at a 45 BGL.
I'm a lot like you, Tanith. I don't smoke (cigarettes), eat very little sugar, I'm not diabetic and have never to this day had the Nicotine high/buzz from any cigar. I smoke full bodied cigars almost exclusively with 0% effects from nicotine.
I will do a bit more research on this and see what I find. Very, very interesting.
