Quitting The Right Way

It’s tempting to believe that you can cut down on smoking or reduce your health risks by using low-tar cigarettes. The reality is, however that the only way to genuinely increase the benefits to your health is to stop smoking altogether.

Low-tar cigarettes

Low-tar cigarettes are not safer than ordinary cigarettes. Although machines used to test cigarettes draw less tar and nicotine from low-tar brands, real smokers don’t – instead, they either smoke more of them or inhale more deeply, to get the same effect.

In fact, low-tar is so misleading it's been banned from cigarette packs. By smoking less or switching to light cigarettes, you're still putting tar into your lungs and more than 4,000 chemicals and toxins into your body. The only solution is to give up tobacco altogether – whether it’s cigarettes, chewing tobacco or cigars.

The right way to quit

The best way to genuinely increase the benefits to your health is to stop smoking altogether.

Suddenly stopping smoking can be upsetting for the nicotine receptors in your brain - without their regular hit of nicotine, the number of nicotine receptors increase and you can experience really tough cravings. Don’t be disheartened though, if you have not managed to quit in the past, there's a good reason to feel confident with Nicabate Minis which help you reduce the number of cigarettes you smoke on your journey to quitting for good.

Use Nicabate Minis if you want to gradually reduce the number of cigarettes you smoke each day before arriving at your quit date, or choose from patches, lozenges or gum if you’d prefer to set a quit date when you give up all your cigarettes at once.
