Solutions to stop smoking

Many people around the world are looking to stop smoking. These people have obviously realized some of the negative effects of smoking or they have probably witnessed the death of someone close due to tobacco. 1 in every 5 deaths in the United States is caused by tobacco and consequently many people probably know of someone who has died due to a smoking related illness such a cancer.

If you have tried quitting before you probably know that it is not easy to stop smoking, but you should take heart in the fact that there are many solutions to stop smoking online. Unfortunately some of these solutions to stop smoking have some pretty serious side-effects so when choosing which method you will try to use to stop smoking you should choose the one that best suits your needs. In this article we will be talking about one solution to stop smoking in depth.

            One solution to stop smoking is NRT. NRT stands for nicotine replacement therapy. It involves attaching quit smoking patches to your skin or chewing nicotine gum. These products will then give you a steady dose of nicotine throughout the day which will help to eliminate some of the urges associated with smoking cessation. This solution to stop smoking works quite well in this respect but one of the many disadvantages to this method is that you are not really doing anything about your addiction to nicotine although you would've stopped pumping other toxic materials into your body, for example tar which fills up in your lungs and causes your lungs to go black.

Other disadvantages of nicotine replacement therapy include the fact that there are a lot of side-effects that have been reported by people using these products. Many people complain that the nicotine patches cause them to have some terrible nightmares. Nicotine patches have also been known to cause people to sleep walk. I was reading a post on one quit smoking forum and one woman mentioned that after using a nicotine patch she woke up having filled her bathtub with water. She probably did this while sleepwalking. Other side-effects include rash development and burning sensations on the skin.
