Nicotine is one of those funny substances that our bodies crave once they've just a single taste of it. We are actually born with nicotinic receptors all over our body. Funny, but our body is extremely sensitive to nicotine because of all these receptors packed densely throughout our bodies, places like our nerves, or our muscles. SO, with the teeniest amount that we let in via nicotine gum, cigarettes, cigars, nicotine patches, our little receptors are having a little holiday with our cells, just going crazy off of the nicotine. Since the teeniest amount can have such widespread effects then just a few milligrams too much and you can go into toxic shock.
