There are so many ways to quit smoking but how do they all work and where should you start?



Patches, pills or injections? How about all three at the same time, will that work? Let's educate ourselves about these programs and see how they differ.



Patches



Patches are a type of nicotine replacement therapy. The idea is that you switch immediately from smoking cigarettes to using patches. Then, over a 12 week period, you reduce the dose of the patch until eventually you stop taking the low dose and, in theory, you don't need to start smoking again.



So how do they work? Well, a patch is like a small band-aid and you slap it onto a fatty part of your body. Usually people will stick one on the upper arm but you can even put them on your backside!



You should only use one patch a day and don't sleep with it on overnight. Each day, you should put the patch on a different part of the body so switching arms each day could work.



Pills



Surprisingly, pills to quit smoking have not been around for very long. But recently there are two pills that have been used to treat smoking.



The first one is Zyban and the second is Chantix. What is the difference between the two? Chantix is said to have a higher success rate at quitting than Zyban but the drawbacks are an alleged higher incidence of side effects. For instance nausea but also more serious side effects.



They both work on the brain chemistry to reduce the pleasure of cigarettes and the cravings for cigarettes so they make quitting much easier. You are not supposed to quit as soon as you start taking them but after about a week.



Injections



The idea of having a stop smoking program that just involved a couple of shots every now and again sounds enticing. What if we could cure smoking in the same way that we could cure diseases?



Currently, there are no approved stop smoking shots available on the market but there are many under development and in trials that will probably be available within 5 years.



They will work in a very similar way to the pills - they will cut the cravings and the perceived enjoyment from cigarettes. They are not a true vaccine because there is no production of antibodies in your body so the effects are not permanent.

It's not easy if you are a smoker trying to find the best quit smoking product to help you break your habit. That was the problem I had, then I came across Zero Nicotine.



I tried the Zero Nicotine Patch in preference to the Zero Nicotine Pills, I'm just to forgetful to remember to take pills every day when the patch lasts for 3 days. Anyway what I liked about the Zero Nicotine patch is as you wear it the nicotine content in your body declines day by day. The contents of the patch are all herbal extracts and ingredients, including Gotu Kala, Hops, Skullcap, Oat, Peppermint, Ginger root, Gentian, Myrrh, Safflower, Eucalyptus, Slippery Elm, Liquorice root, Alfalfa, Passion Flower, Sarsaparilla, Bayberry, and Echinacea Powder. Those ingredients don't mean much to me but I do know that the Chinese have been using natural herbal medicine for thousands of years. I can't deny the fact that Zero Nicotine reduced my smoking withdrawal symptoms quit a bit and made it a lot easier for me to resist the temptation to light up.



It's also true that Zero Nicotine patches do not contain any nicotine but the ingredients do mimic the nicotine that drives your cravings, consequently the nicotine in your body goes down and so your need for a smoke becomes less and less. The other thing that I noticed was that I felt a lot calmer, when in the past I had tried to quit smoking I was impossible to live with, I drove my family nuts, they virtually told me to start smoking again just for some peace. My other previous attempts to quit also had me gaining weight but with Zero Nicotine this did not seem to be a problem, not quite sure why, maybe one of the herbs is an appetite suppressant.



Some friends have asked me why I chose Zero Nicotine and didn't go to my doctor and get one of the stop smoking drug based medications. Well I am very nervous about drugs after I had a sever allergic reaction to a prescribed medication a couple of years back, I have never been so sick, now I will only take drugs when I'm convinced there is no alternative. I realise there are other natural quit smoking alternatives to Zero Nicotine and I'm not saying they don't work, I haven't tried them. I just started searching the web for quit smoking products and Zero Nicotine was the first one I came across, it sounded ok, so I tried it, is it the best natural herb based product, I really don't know.



One thing I will stress is Zero Nicotine or any other quit smoking remedy will have trouble helping you quit if you are not really committed to becoming a non smoker. The likes of Zero Nicotine are only there to help you achieve the end result, it's an aid to support your own commitment, not a stand-alone guarantee to quit smoking. If you basically don't want to quit smoking and are only using the patches to appease your other half or your doctor, you will surely fail.



I personally had a health scare that I know was the direct result of smoking, for me it was an easy decision to make, quit smoking or end up very sick or maybe even dead. I would have been a lot smarter if I had made the decision myself years ago. Even with the help of Zero Nicotine I'm not completely there yet, I still have the occasional smoke (very occasional) which frustrates me. I recently found another herbal quit smoking product called Smoke Deter, the reviews I read seem to claim it's better than Zero Nicotine, so I am going to give it a try to see if I can get rid of the last annoying cravings for that occasional cigarette.



Don't get me wrong I'm not saying Zero Nicotine doesn't work, it helped me a lot, I just want to see if another product can complete the job.

It is out of the question that smoking is terrible. It's terrible for you, and it kills many people. Smoking is always harmful to the health of people. However, no matter what reasons people have for smoking, they are always strongly recommended to stop smoking.



This doesn't necessarily mean that people should avoid smoking cessation just because of the side effects. What people need to bear in mind is that such problems are normal to show up because their bodies are trying to remove the toxins that they have always injected into their body. These problems show up due to the nicotine withdrawal.



Quitting smoking side effects often include depressed, anxious or irritable feelings. The reason behind this is in fact pretty sensible. Before they stop smoking, they usually need around 15 minutes to complete their daily routines. However, since they start trying to quit smoking, they often tend to stare at their daily routines even for about an hour.



During the first stages of nicotine withdrawal, the effects of smoking cessation often cause people to have a bad night sleep. Even if they manage to get their sleep in the end, it will often be of poor quality.



Experiencing a mild sadness or depression is also a common thing when it comes to quitting smoking side effects. It is like that these people are losing their best friend that is always there for them when they need it. If that is not enough, boredom is also common. When they smoke, they always have something to do -- smoking -- when they have nothing to do. Also, those who are trying to quit smoking will often have a short temper and get angry easily as one of the quitting smoking side effects.



What about the physical quitting smoking side effects? Well, it is common that people will experience headaches, catch fever, colds, coughs, sharp chest pain and still a lot more to mention. Well, people should realize that these all things happen because their body is in the middle of the healing process. In order to cope with all these things, people are allowed to take medicine such as pain reliever or aspirin. Drinking a lot of water is also very recommendable to counter these problems.

It will take different time for different people to get ready and for their mind to accept the idea of quitting. I'm emphasizing the mind on purpose because as soon as you quit, your mind will start playing quite quirky jokes on you. And that's the time when you will need all the help you can get.



And this help can come in very different forms these days. Nicotine patches, medications, hypnosis, psychological treatments, acupuncture sessions are just some of them, and any of them can help - some more some less. Again, individual results can vary depending on a person, and his or her readiness to quit.



We're going to talk in this article about the Hypnosis approach and one particular product "Stop Smoking Hypnosis" by Richard MacKenzie. Hypnotherapy is quite different from a hypnosis you might have seen on the shows. No one is going to take your mind under control and start making you do silly things. Hypnotherapy is more about relaxation and getting in touch with your subconscious, but you're still in control all the time. The feeling can be compared to being in trance, like when you keep looking on the burning flame or running water - your mind is somewhere away and your subconscious is ready for interaction.



And that's when "Stop Smoking Hypnosis" will come handy as it's exactly the hypnosis program you need. It will reach your subconscious and influence you in a way that you will just stop thinking or worrying about cigarettes and smoking. It will boost your willpower and make your transitional period from a smoker to an ex-smoker a lot smoother and easier. And that's exactly what you're after, aren't you?

"Once you are addicted towards smoking, you can never stop!!" I wonder if this is a fact or just a myth.

This just doesn't make sense.



This is where Chantix got an upper hand when compared to its competitor in the market. Chantrix is totally nicotine-free, with Varenicline as the main active ingredients.

For many smokers, quitting is easier said than done. Smoke Deter, one of the several stop-smoking products, claims that it can help people in their battle to quit smoking. Or, does it really?



Smoking is a perfect companion in times of pressures, anxiety attacks, depressions, or just for the purpose of being gregarious. With the advent of engaging advertisements, more and more people are becoming curious to try what smoking can offer. Of course, cigarette smoking is definitely addictive and causes serious health hazard to smokers and even to nonsmokers as well. Even though, this is a fact and cigarette smoking is the leading preventable cause of death worldwide, many people still cling on this dangerous habit.



According to the National Cancer Institute, approximately 19.8 percent of adult, 23 percent of high school students, and 8 percent of middle school students in the United States are currently smoking cigarettes.



The reason why smoking has become the concern especially of medical professionals is due to the addictive effects of nicotine. Tobacco smoking is synonymous to lung cancer as well as with chronic lung diseases and cardiovascular diseases. As such, it is essential that smokers must give kicking the bad habit a try.



Quitting a habit such as smoking is easier said than done. Many smokers had tried that idea before but failed miserably. They find it hard to break the habit of smoking because overcoming nicotine withdrawal symptoms is one tough predicament.



A solution to quit smoking is the use of stop-smoking aid such as Smoke Deter. This product can help a person concentrate more on quitting the habit of smoking by relieving the symptoms of withdrawal. Smoke Deter is a natural, safe, and fast-acting liquid oral spray. It is absorbed faster into the blood vessels under the tongue. The sublingual application is the preferred method to deliver homeopathic ingredients to fight symptoms so you can feel better quickly. Smoke Deter is formulated to relieve various symptoms and can be safely used with no drowsiness, no adverse side effects, or no known drug interactions.



Although you will feel the benefits very quickly, it's been proven that taking this product for a longer term will produce better and permanent result when trying to quit smoking. This is not an overnight type of a solution to kicking your smoking habits; although some products may claim that theirs can do wonders in just days or weeks. Think in terms of months in order to fully experience the positive result of this amazing product.



The use of the stop-smoking aid will never be successful without the personal will of the smoker trying to quit this bad and dangerous habit. If it is not coming from within and continues to be tempted by the urge to start smoking again, then all attempts will just be worthless. Also, it is important to get the emotional support of people close to you as well as seeking professional support groups. Those who successfully quit smoking will attest that support system really does help. So, make sure to benefit from these various support groups in your fight to stop smoking, but no matter how you are trying to quit, Smoke Deter can help control those difficult symptoms.

When I consider the health benefits of quitting smoking I do not even know where to start. They are so many but I will try going through most of them in the paragraphs that follow. When you are a smoker you know you have been cutting down on your life expectancy. You started cutting down on it the minute you smoked your first cigarette.



So when you quit smoking you begin to reverse the process. You begin to add to your life expectancy. The effects of smoking on your health are gradual. They are not immediately noticeable. So don't expect to feel like a whole new person two days after quitting either. The process will take time but your body will eventually get back to its clean state.



When you smoke you put yourself at the risk of falling sick from disease that you would never have had to worry about as a non smoker. Many diseases can be traced back to the effects of smoking. Like lung cancer, and all these other respiratory illnesses. So some of the health benefits of quitting smoking is you never have to worry about these illnesses.



Smokers reduce their chances of recovery from other illnesses too. It takes them a longer time to recover than a person who doesn't smoke. It may not be health related but its worth mentioning. Smoking is an expensive habit. As it becomes more addictive you begin to spend more money on it. So that's another reason why should stop.



Other health benefits of quitting smoking are that you also reduce the effects of passive smoking. Because the people around you are as at much risk as you are. So the best thing you can do is quit. There are easy ways of how to quit and you don't have to worry about relapse.

Behaviorists say that it takes just 21 days to make a habit. But how long does it take to permanently quit a nicotine habit? Try Nicocure.



Would you believe that it only takes TEN days to kick the nicotine habit? Yes, just TEN days. No, it is not possible with nicotine patches, nicotine gums or will power, although millions have tried them. It has been proven possible through the use of Nicocure.



Nicocure is the revolutionary and all-natural way to treating nicotine addiction. Unlike the nicotine patches, Nicocure contains zero percent nicotine, thus taking you totally off nicotine. Do not be afraid of finding yourself transferring addictions from cigarettes to nicotine patches or gum.



Millions of smokers have tried to quit smoking again and again, but failed each time, until they tried Nicocure. In fact, over 97% of those who used Nicocure have successfully quit the habit for good. Compare this to users of nicotine gum and patches - only 20% of them are just as successful. Well, no success rate figures are available for will power.



What makes Nicocure amazing is the special herb content that makes it a safe, natural and effective alternative to nicotine patches and nicotine gums.



This ingredient is a known life-saver for asthmatics and people suffering from bronchitis. Michael Murray, N.D., of Bastyr College recommends it as a better alternative to chewing gum and nicotine patch because it gives your nicotine receptor cells the same feeling that nicotine provides.



This ingredient has been identified as Lobelia Inflata or more popularly known as Indian tobacco. The plant extract acts as an expectorant for the lungs, which helps clear the lungs quickly. But that is not how Lobelia and Nicocure effectively rids you of your nicotine addiction.



Researchers at Nicocure have found a way to reduce the plant extracts to a proprietary herbal blend, in a patch form, which can give your nicotine receptor cells the same feeling as nicotine. It also makes nicotine products like cigarettes and nicotine gum taste awfully bad. You will not crave the "cigarette sensation" after using the Nicocure formula.



Nicocure users claimed that their cravings disappeared in just ten days of using the product. However, you can also purchase a 30-day supply if you feel you need Nicocure patches for a longer period of time.



Nicocure is one great gift you can give to yourself and your family.
