We have known about the perils of smoking for decades, but despite the serious diseases caused by it – not to mention the yellow-stained teeth and whiffy clothes – the majority of smokers have always turned a blind eye to the negative effects and merrily continued puffing away.
Until more recent times, that is. Finally, after years of warnings and an increasingly poor societal view of the habit, people are beginning to quit smoking in record numbers. Owing to various factors, including the eyebrow-raising cost of cigarettes, health reasons, negative societal perceptions, and fewer public places to smoke, a huge amount of people are now quitting.
But as a record number of people quit smoking, there are also a huge number of people failing at the first hurdle, yielding to smoking triggers and resuming the habit. Why? Because despite the growing numbers of people attempting to stop, quitting smoking has not become any easier.
The percentage of people successfully quitting hasn’t increased by much. Just eight per cent of smokers managed to kick the habit when attempting smoking cessation in 2023, compared to seven per cent in 2003.
The fact is, more people are quitting smoking than ever, simply because more people are trying to. However, the percentage of people who fail has almost remained unchanged.
Smoking Cessation Aids
Given the wide range of smoking cessation products on the market, you would be forgiven for assuming that quitting has become much easier. Smokers are spoilt for choice these days, with an abundance of products designed to make quitting smoking much easier.
From strange-tasting chewing gum, sticky patches, and even medicine to an ocean of quit-smoking information in the form of books, podcasts, and YouTube videos, smokers have a huge arsenal of weaponry to turn to in the battle to quit smoking. Despite this, smoking remains incredibly hard to quit.
The Zero Nicotine Solution
The main issue with quitting smoking isn’t just the ordeal of nicotine withdrawal. Another equally brutal aspect of quitting owes to the radical change of habits. Smokers associate the act of smoking with almost everything they do, from a glass of wine in a beer garden or the post-meal smoke to driving the car. The act of smoking becomes second nature, almost like a crutch of sorts.
To that end, an alternative solution has become more popular recently in the form of zero-nicotine products. These alternatives offer the satisfaction of smoking without the addictive element of nicotine. They provide a way to enjoy the experience of smoking while significantly reducing health risks by removing most of the harmful chemicals associated with smoking.
The Sensation of Smoking
With zero-nicotine products, you can continue to feel as though you are smoking without inhaling several thousand potentially deadly chemicals. An initial period of nicotine withdrawal will still exist, as will the urge to ingest nicotine for a few months after switching, but half of the quitting battle lies with the sensation of smoking, and with zero nicotine products, you can continue with the familiar routine without compromising your health.
This makes the transition away from traditional cigarettes much smoother and less jolting, allowing you to maintain the comfort of the habit while avoiding the harmful effects of tobacco.
Zero-nicotine products offer a way to break these associations without the shock of going cold turkey. You still get the hand-to-mouth action and the sensation of smoking, which can make a huge difference in maintaining your resolve.
Options and Availability
The market for zero-nicotine products is constantly growing, offering various options to cater to many preferences. Zero nicotine products provide smokers with alternatives that maintain the ritual of smoking without the health risks.
Herbal Sticks: Sticks are made from natural ingredients, providing a smoking sensation without nicotine. They are ideal for those who prefer a more traditional feel.
Electronic Cigarettes: E-cigarettes heat a liquid to create vapour. These devices often come in various flavours and offer a similar experience to smoking but without nicotine.
Nicotine-Free Vaping Pods: Small ‘pods’ are compatible with vaping devices and contain flavoured liquids free from nicotine. They offer a customisable experience with a range of flavours and strengths.
NEAFS TEO Sticks:NEAFS sticks use plant-based ingredients to simulate the smoking experience. They are designed to be used with the NEAFS TEO device, providing a wonderful alternative to traditional cigarettes.
Nicotine-Free Shisha: Herbal hookah products that use natural ingredients like molasses, glycerin, and flavourings to create a smoking experience similar to traditional shisha but without nicotine. They are great for social settings and provide a flavorful, smoke-like vapour.
Nicotine-Free Pouches: These are small pouches filled with plant-based materials and flavourings that users place between their gum and cheek. They provide a similar oral sensation to chewing tobacco but without nicotine.
Benefits of Zero Nicotine Products
It wouldn’t be accurate or fair to describe zero nicotine products as ‘healthy’, as they also come with a few risks of their own, including the potential of throat irritation, dry mouth, or even mild respiratory irritation, in the worst case. However, in comparison to traditional tobacco smoking, you could at least describe them as a far healthier alternative.
However, switching to zero-nicotine products can lead to immediate health benefits. Without the intake of nicotine, you avoid its addictive grip and the associated health risks. The main benefit is that these products do not produce tar or carbon monoxide, which are the primary culprits in smoking-related illnesses.
Users often report improved lung function, better cardiovascular health, and overall well-being. The absence of these harmful substances means your body can start to heal from the damage caused by smoking while you continue to enjoy the sensation of smoking.
The NEAFS Solution
NEAFS products, such as our nicotine-free sticks, offer a practical, convenient, and healthier alternative to traditional smoking. The clever design of NEAFS sticks provides a smoking-like experience without the harmful effects associated with tobacco.
By heating and not burning their ingredients, NEAFS sticks give the sensation of smoking while eliminating thousands of harmful chemicals found in cigarettes. This allows smokers to maintain their routine and the sensory pleasure of smoking without the detrimental health effects.
The transition from traditional cigarettes to NEAFS is incredibly smooth, as users do not feel the sudden, unwelcome change associated with quitting. What’s more, the NEAFS TEO device is simple to use and easy to clean, so you can enjoy your smoke-free experience anytime, anywhere.
Bottom Line
