Does the Over-the-counter Nicotine Patch Really Double Your Chances of Quitting? Written by John R. Polito
Posted by www.iwanttoquitsmoking.com The Stop Smoking Hypnosis people. What if 91 of 100 quitters relying exclusively upon over-the-counter (OTC) nicotine patch to help them quit were failing and relapsing within 24 weeks of slapping on that first patch? What if 98 or 99 out of 100 of those relying exclusively upon OTC nicotine patch for a second or subsequent quitting attempt were smoking again within 24 weeks? What if, in truth, your chances of quitting on your own were greater than if quitting with patch? What if few who are quitting while wearing patch are doing so in spite of it, instead of because of it? How many times have you heard an over-the-counter nicotine patch commercial proclaim that patch will "double your chances" of quitting? Is it true or is it false? Should we instantly believe everything we read or hear on television without investigating on our own? Experts tell us that smoking is killing half of all who are unable to quit while eventually crippling most lucky enough to survive. Are there certain representations in life that are important enough to invest time needed to investigate and make up our own minds? I hope that you’ll take time to read full text of some of studies cited below and decide for yourself! Your very life may depend on it! Double “your chances” of quitting? “Your” chances? What are your chances of quitting on your own and what are pharmaceutical companies actually doubling? This article explores all of over-the-counter nicotine patch study evidence that I have been able to locate. But before going further I feel need to declare my beliefs and disclose my background. It’s my firm conviction that key to permanent abstinence is in each quitter developing a solid appreciation for true power of nicotine. By taking time to master core withdrawal and recovery principles underlying years of chemical dependency upon nicotine, we can each short-circuit agony of learning nicotine’s true power through school of hard quit knocks.

Unlike other nutritional supplements, glyconutrients provide monosaccharides recently identified as essential for good human health. Glyconutritionals address fundamental structure of body. Rather than trying to chelate out toxins or add a generic ingredient like argenine to increase blood flow, we are dealing with body's "garden". Diabetes Mellitus, commonly referred to as "diabetes," means "sweet urine." Diabetes mellitus means "to flow, honey" in Greek. Diabetes is a disease that affects body's ability to produce or respond to insulin, a hormone that allows blood glucose (blood sugar) to enter cells of body and be used for energy. It results from defects in insulin secretion, insulin action, or both. In diabetes too much glucose stays in blood. Elevated levels of blood glucose (hyperglycemia) lead to spillage of glucose into urine. Our bodies are made up of groups of cells, each cell so tiny it is invisible to naked eye. These cells reproduce themselves by dividing in a regular way so growth and repair of body tissues can take place. Cancer develops when cells start to divide at wrong time and in wrong place, then continue to divide and invade nearby tissues and organs. It is this uncontrolled growth of cells that causes a swelling or tumour.
