Hooked on Zyban Instead of Nicotine
2009-01-26 06:40:00 I really liked smoking. I started when I was 15 and smoked for over 13 years. Let me tell you, I'm one of those addictive personalities. Part of it is genetic, I'm sure. My father is a recovering alcoholic, sober over 20 years now. Most of women in my family are compulsive overeaters. If it feels good, I'll get hooked on it. A lot of my friends started smoking when I did, but some were just chippers - only smoked a few times a day, or could go days without smoking. My best girlfriend is still a chipper after smoking for 13 years. For me it was love a first puff. I was up to like a pack a day in no time. I would still be smoking if it weren't for my husband and my son. They just wouldn't let up - nagging and making me feel guilty, I finally gave up and quit about six months ago. That may have sounded easy - I quit smoking six months ago - but I had tried to stop many times. I tried nicotine gum and the patch, but I still felt really tense. I felt like I was walking a tightrope...

He has appeared on The Today Show, CBS This Morning, CNN, and has presented more than 800 keynotes, workshops, and seminars in 42 states and 16 countries. Guest Blogger Thomas Armstrong-- A new report from the Massachusetts Department of Health says that the amount of nicotine in most cigarettes rose an average of 10% between 1998 and 2004, and that the cigarettes with the greatest increases in nicotine include brands that are the most popular with teenagers: Marlboro, Newport, and Camel. So while the public personna of cigarette manufacturers like Phillip Morris has them warning young people of the dangers of smoking in media advertisements (see, for example, their home page on the web which is strewn with proactive health messages), behi...

2008-02-06 14:05:00 Damian O'Hara is a former chain smoker who after countless miserable attempts to quit, finally did so successfully using Allen Carr's Easyway method. The early part of his career was spent working at international advertising agencies but today he is the President of Allen Carr North America where he heads up the US and Canadian arm of a global organization dedicated to helping smokers quit.

2007-10-28 22:01:00 Teenagers who smoke are five times more likely to drink and 13 times more likely to use marijuana than those who are not smokers, says a US report issued today.The report by Columbia University's National Centre on Addiction and Substance Abuse presented further evidence linking youth smoking to other substance abuse and spotlighted research on how nicotine affects the adolescent brain."Teenage smoking can signal the fire of alcohol and drug abuse or mental illness like depression and anxiety," Joseph Califano, who heads the centre and is a former US health secretary, said in a telephone interview.The report analysed surveys conducted by the US Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration and other data on youth smokers. Most smokers begin smoking before age 18.Smokers aged 12 to 17 were more likely drink alcohol than nonsmokers - 59 per cent compared to 11 per cent, the report found. Those who become regular smokers by age 12 are more than three times more likely to r...

Low Cost Term Life Insurance For Smokers And Nicotine Users
2007-08-22 07:17:00 If you are smoker or regular tobacco user, you know how difficult it can be trying to purchase term life insurance. The high term life insurance premiums quoted to you simply because you smoke have probably been disappointing.

Next Safety developing nicotine-delivery device to curb smoking
2007-08-15 00:55:00 Filed under: Misc. Gadgets Nah, Next Safety's approach to curbing smoking isn't nearly as fun as puffing on Golden Dragon's Ruyan e-cigarettes, but it just might do the trick. Reportedly, this North Carolina-based startup plans to bring a "nicotine-delivery product" to market which would actually "deliver nicotine to the brain faster and safer than cigarettes," all while protecting children and nonsmokers from secondhand smoke. Interestingly, the pulmonary drug-deliverer (which works similarly to a medical inhaler) is said to provide "a stronger kick" than smoking, but actually administers a smaller amount of nicotine to the body than your average Marlboro. Currently, the firm is hoping to release it into less restricted overseas markets by the year's end, but analysts here in America are questioning its ability to pass through all the red tape required for it to hit our shelves.[Via MedGadget]Read - New nicotine-delivery device is safer than smoking, NC company saysRead - Next...
Nicotine fit!!!
2007-08-01 22:07:00 So today marks the beginning of an entirely smoke-free campus here at UNM, and let's just say that ariadneK is having a slightly rough time of it, to put it mildly. ;-) I'm doing fairly well actually, though I did take a brief walk off-campus (which was fairly relaxing in and of itself) about half an hour ago to relieve some of my anxiety and indulge in lighting up.Aside from the nicotine bullshit, I'm starting to feel a bit better than I did last week, so hopefully I will indeed start posting on a more regular basis once again. With regard to the position that I interviewed for awhile back (a few weeks ago now, I think?) that I REALLY want, I haven't heard anything back on it...so damn! I guess things aren't so promising after all, but I'm still keeping my fingers tightly crossed and hoping for the best.Anyway, perhaps more later...ariK

2007-07-19 11:28:00 Nicotine Delivery DeviceNext Safety pulmonary drug delivery device delivers nicotine more effectively than a cigarette.Big tobacco corporations have increased nicotine levels in cigarettes over the past 6 years.

Next Safety, Inc. is committed to giving the public a safer alternative.Next Safety, Inc. has delivered nicotine with such high efficiency and efficacy that an inhaled dose equal to less than 30 percent of that inhaled from the average cigarette yields psychoactive results that last 12 to 18 hours in the average person.

What is nicotine addiction?
2007-05-16 10:35:00 Nicotine is the tobacco plant's natural protection from being eaten by insects. Drop for drop it's more lethal than strychnine and three times deadlier than arsenic. Yet, amazingly, by chance, this natural insecticide's chemical structure is so similar to the neurotransmitter acetylcholine that once inside the brain it fits a host of chemical locks permitting it direct and indirect control over the flow of more than 200 neurochemicals. Within eight seconds of that first-ever inhaled puff, through dizzy, coughing and six shades of green, nicotine arrived at the brain's reward pathways where it generated an unearned flood of dopamine, resulting in an immediate yet possibly unrecognized "aaahhh" reward sensation. Sensing it would cause most first-time inhalers to soon return to steal more. Nicotine also fit the adrenaline locks releasing a host of fight or flight neurochemicals and select serotonin locks impacting mood. Brain Defenses Create Dependency A toxic poison, the ...

Nicotine doesn?t suppress appetite
2007-02-02 18:36:01 Nicotine doesn’t suppress the appetite. That’s an old myth. All it does is gives the smoker something to fiddle with and stick in their mouths. Part of anti-smoking therapy is that it gets bluntly pointed out to the smoker that they’re reverting to babyhood, always needing a nipple in their mouth. People who quit without realizing the triggers tend to snack more, usually on junk food.
