How does NicoBloc help me avoid withdrawal symptoms?
By gradually increasing the amount of NicoBloc used on cigarettes over a period of weeks, the amount of nicotine and tar being consumed is gradually reduced. This helps the body to be gradually weaned away from nicotine addition at a gentle pace and gradually recover from the effects of the damaging tar. Because the smoker is still smoking, there isn't the issue of suddenly dropping the habit and not having anything to do with the hands, which also helps people to avoid eating more.
As NicoBloc blocks nicotine, will it not cause additional cravings?
One drop of NicoBloc blocks approx. 1/3 of the nicotine, which has been found, is enough to start the weaning off process but not enough to start nicotine withdrawal symptoms. Increasing to two drops after two weeks and three drops after three weeks gives a smoker’s body time to adapt rather than causing abrupt reactions.
How does NicoBloc help with the habit of smoking as well as the addiction?
Primarily, NicoBloc fluid traps tar and nicotine thereby helping to eliminate nicotine addiction and reducing withdrawal symptoms. However, the application of NicoBloc causes the smoker to change their usual routine of automatically lighting up without thinking by introducing the extra step of putting NicoBloc on each cigarette just before it is smoked.
Smokers report that it is usually their 'habitual' cigarettes that go first as they reduce their consumption down to just a few a day, especially the ones where there is a degree of impracticality in applying NicoBloc such as when driving a car or walking along the street.
Can I use NicoBloc on roll ups?
NicoBloc is designed to work with cigarette filters. People who smoke roll-ups can benefit from NicoBloc by applying it to a mini-filter prior to rolling the cigarette.
Are low tar cigarettes safer?
Low tar cigarettes have been shown to be just as dangerous, if not more so, than conventional cigarettes. Smokers tend to modify their behavior to ensure they inhale enough smoke to achieve a satisfactory 'hit' and thus take in more tar by blocking the ventilation holes in the filter. People believe these cigarettes to be less dangerous (and by implication more healthy) but recent press coverage has sought to dispel this myth.
