Stop Smoking - Doing Whatever It Takes
By Michael Russell
For some people, to quit smoking is not just dealing with the withdrawal symptoms. They miss the taste of the cigarette itself, or the act of smoking and when the time comes to quit, they don't know what to do with their hands and mouths. I guess you could take up knitting and eating candies. Actually, there are some products that help you specifically with these issues and then some and most of these products work best in combination with a stop smoking program, nicotine gum or patch.
For example, you have the E-Z Quit Artificial Cigarette. This is a smokeless cigarette that let's you satisfy your craving to have a drag. It doesn't contain any chemicals, so it's completely harmless. Instead, it comes with a mint taste that keeps your taste buds busy. Since this doesn't satisfy your nicotine craving, you might have to cover that with gum or a patch, but maybe your imagination is enough.
Kind of similar to the last product is Simply Quit. It also offers you artificial cigarettes, except these actually taste like tobacco.
A product that promises the gradual reduction of nicotine is One Step at a Time Cigarette Filters. This system gives you four different filters; each of them can be used for up to 14 days. With the first filter, you eliminate 25% of the nicotine in your cigarette. Once you're accustomed to that filter, you move on to the next one, which eliminates 50%, then 70% and finally 90%. With this product, you don't need extra help with the withdrawal symptoms, since you're still smoking and you don't need anything to keep your hands busy.
NicoBloc is similar to those products above, only here you apply a few drops of a special liquid directly onto the filter. It claims to filter out 99% of nicotine, tar and other dangerous chemicals contained in the cigarette.
Other products such as Super Stop Cigarette Filters and Aquafilter remove tar and nicotine from your cigarette (well, some of it anyway) without compromising the taste. They promise that you can keep on smoking without the health hazards. Makes you wonder why everybody isn't using it.
Some people just need a few puffs to satisfy their craving at that moment. What they do is have a few drags, put out the cigarette and when the craving hits again, just light up the same cigarette. What the "Smart Ashtray" offers is exactly the same thing, except you have an ashtray to put the cigarette in! What this is supposed to do is gradually decrease your nicotine intake. Personally, I don't see why you would spend money on something that you can just as easily do yourself, but hey, that's just me.
Other ways to help you quit smoking are acupuncture, hypnosis or laser therapy. These can help to reduce the cravings. There are also certain drops that you apply on the filter and which makes the cigarette taste disgusting.
With all the products out there that are supposed to help you quit smoking, there are still many more in development right now. Some of them seem unconventional, but they might just work for some individuals. Maybe they're just right for you!
