tobacco and other drug use
#9
From "The Divine Code," Part III (The Prohibition of Blasphemy), ch. 2, quoting Likkutei Sichot vol. 38, a Noahide may take upon himself any specific vow, including such a nazirite vow as you mentioned.

This means that the special holiness of a Jewish nazir as described in the Torah doesn't apply to a Noahide. But as any vow that a Noahide commits himself to, he is obligated to uphold it if he makes such a vow.
