Benefits of various aerobic zones

Good Day! I'd like to get some clarity on the degree of benefit to sticking to only zones 2 and 5 for aerobics, in the context of "Am I wasting valuable time and energy exercising in zones 3 & 4?). Peter Attia in particular is very vocal on this and almost seems to eschew zones 2 & 4 (even referring to them as "garbage" zones in one interview). My wife LOVES to jog 30 minutes x 5-6 days per week, but she's questioning herself because she spends most of that time in zone 3/4. I did notice from your protocol that you do one day each week in zone 3-4 as well. Thank you for all you do!

Tobacco-free snus / pouches

The episode on nicotine was great, very informative. If we want to try nicotine intermittently to aid focus, would the best option be tobacco-free snus or pouches? The "healthy" alternatives to smoking or harmful pouches/gums were unclear to me. In Europe, nicorette is only available on prescription to quit smoking, so not an option for most Europeans. There are, however, tobacco-free pouches available. Are these less harmful than their tobacco counterparts? Both contain nicotine.
