Stop Smoking

There are various ways to help stop smoking. The first help comes with the use of medication to reduce cravings and gradually wean your body away from nicotine. This medication comes in the form of patches, lozenges, chewing gum and cigarette replacements. Patches from NiQuitin deliver measured doses of nicotine throughout the day. This allows you to throw away the cigarettes and break the smoking habit whilst gradually weaning yourself from the nicotine cravings.

When giving up smoking one of the dangers is that cigarettes are replaced with snacks and nibbles. Chewing NiQuitin gum not only provides the nicotine you need but also helps to stop you from snacking at the same time. Like the patches, chewing gum is available in a choice of strengths to help you to manage the cravings.

For those who want to keep their mouths occupied but don’t like gum, lozenges are the answer. Like the gum they allow a small amount of nicotine to enter the bloodstream and help to keep the cravings at bay.

If you are not yet ready to give up smoking but want to cut down, Crafe Away mini filters could be the answer. Inserted into the end of a cigarette the filters reduce the amount of tar and nicotine without changing the taste of the cigarette. Once you’ve got the hang of a lower level of nicotine you may find it easy to move on to the Crafe Away smokeless cigarette which gives the feel of a cigarette without the harm.

Sometimes resorting to patches, gum and lozenges is not enough and an extra willpower boost is needed. Check with your doctor to find your nearest NHS stop smoking clinic which will provide you with support to help you to stop. It may also be worth considering hypnosis as stop smoking hypnosis has proved effective on numerous occasions.

Once you succeed in stopping smoking experts say that after one month your skin appearance improves, after 3-9 months breathing improves and lung function increases by up to 10% and after 1 year your risk of a heart attack falls to half that of a smoker.
