What are Poppers?
Poppers are a vasodilator (it dilates your blood vessels) which was first used by doctors to treat heart diseases. It takes its name after the vials that made a pop while being opened.

There are different types of poppers: amyl, pentyl or propyl nitrite-based.
Poppers was invented by a French chemist named Antoine- Jérôme Balard who managed to synthesize amyl nitrite. Needless to say this inventor is revered by some of us.
