Nicotine Gum
Posted by Nnm0989 (Mumbai, Maharashtra, India) on 09/23/2012
Hi, Smoking is bad for your health. Smoking harms nearly every organ of the body. Cigarette smoking causes 87 percent of lung cancer deaths. Stop smoking aids are among the effective techniques that one can use to crush their nicotine addiction. However, as they say, what works for some may not work for everyone. One of the best products that I have ever come across to quit smoking is [nicotine] Gum and I believe in that product because today with the help of that I have quit smoking and from past six months I have not got a single craving...
Thanks and Cheers to Quit smoking Products.
Regards, Neil

I got off of cigarettes with the nicotene gum, now I'm still addicted to nicotene and still chew the gum. Will this work to get off of them? Or is there a better way to kick this habit?

I was a smoker for 39 years. I tried cold turkey many times and cold laser therapy twice with limited results. I used Chantix for my last attempt to stop smoking.
It was very easy to stop smoking.. It's been over seven years since I stopped smoking.

Now the anti smoking industry has gone political. Its totaly ignoring a few things. Ie the bigest cause of death in non smokers is bowel cancer. Smoking increases peristalsis, I suppose that means poor food dosn't linger in the gut as long as it does in non smokers, so constipation dosn't occur.. Which is a major cause of this type of cancer. A few years ago doctors would recomend smoking to stop Asthma, and to delay Altzhimers. In the thirties they also touted it for stress relief. Yes the LPG dryers in the leaf drying kilns leave cancerous hydro carbons on the leaf. In a few years it will be interesting to see if lives are actually saved in the demonising of smoking. I doubt it.

With regard to the big tobacco I was referring to the production of taylor made cigys. The leaf is processed into a mush and then dried out like cardboard, it has to be done this way for the cuters, the rolling machines cant make them, any other way. Rice is also used as filler, (burnt rice is a carcinogen) the amount of nicotine in the commercial leaf isn't very high, so they add it to the mush, by spraying. Along with about another 140 chemicals to improve shelf life and taste. I've researched this, and to the best of my knowledge, it is correct. If you add to the mix the hydrocarbons left on the leaf, after kiln drying, another carcinogen, taylor made cigs, are really dicey. No one will convince me that a few and I stress a few, rolled cigarettes, per day are much of a health hazard. The fact that pipe smokers live longer than none smokers, must be a clue to some sort, of balanced look at the problem. During the time I was researching the effects of smoking. I was fairly dumfounded myself as to benefits. This might sound a bit reactionary to the present anti smoking industries.. and I apologise if I've hurt anyone's sensibilities .but I think that its past atmospheric bomb testing with regards to strontium levels, that would be the main culprit for causing a disease that wasn't on the radar before they started.
Nicotine Gum
Posted by Trying To Quit (Sydney, Nsw, Australia) on 11/09/2010
I am trying really really hard to give up this smoking addiction. I have been a smoker for the last 20 years and know that not only should I have not taken it up in the first place but I need to give it up now due to a potential cigarette related health issue (ENT visit coming up - very scared). It has been almost 24 hours since my last cigarette and I am climbing the walls with agitation and so have reached for the gum. I have been regularly taking the lemon/bicarb or the ACV/bicarb for months and hope the nicotine replacement doesnt upset this(Yes I know my smoking was probably messing with my attempts to alkalise but hoping to do better without the ciggies).
Can anyone tell me if or how nicotine gum will effect alkalising? Will the bicarb soda effect the gum at all? What else can I do to get my health back and take preventative measures against cancer?

QUOTE: Most smokers suffer from Vitamin E deficiencies. But when you give them an extra Vitamin C supplement (maybe one pill in the morning and 1 at night), this E deficiency goes away completely. Vitamin E is used in collagen production. End of Quote.
Hi Rich, I am confused by your opening paragraph. Maybe it's a typo. Shouldn't we take vitamin E if we are deficient instead of vitamin C? Or are we to take both?
