All natural without nicotine or any chemicals. No side-effects reported. The Bye to Nico Quit Smoking Patch Harmful Habit of Smoking: The DangerTobacco contains more than 4000 chemicals and the harm smoking does is common knowledge. Smoking, both first hand and second hand, hurts nearly every organ of the body, causing many diseases and reducing the health of smokers in general. Cigarette smoking accounts for an estimated 438,000 deaths, or nearly 1 of every 5 deaths, each year in the United States, more deaths are caused each year by tobacco use than by all deaths from HIV, illegal drug use, alcohol use, motor vehicle injuries, suicides, and murders combined! Cancer is the second leading cause of death and was among the first diseases causually linked to smoking. Smoking causes about 90% of lung cancer deaths in women and almost 80% of lung cancer deaths in men. It causes cancers of the bladder, oral cavity, pharynx, larynx, esophagus, cervix, kidney, lung, pancreas, and stomach, and causes acute myeloid leukemia.Smoking causes coronary heart disease, the leading cause of death in the United States. Cigarette smokers are 2?4 times more likely to develop coronary heart disease than nonsmokers. It approximately doubles a person’s risk for stroke causing reduced circulation by narrowing the blood vessels (arteries). It causes abdominal aortic aneurysm, and is associated with a tenfold increase in the risk of dying from chronic obstructive lung disease. About 90% of all deaths from chronic obstructive lung diseases are attributable to cigarette smoking. Cigarette smoking has many adverse reproductive and early childhood effects, including an increased risk for infertility, preterm delivery, stillbirth, low birth weight, and sudden infant death syndrome. Postmenopausal women who smoke have lower bone density than women who never smoked. Women who smoke have an increased risk for hip fracture than never smokers.So, for yourself, your family, your friends and everyone around you, stop smoking today! Difficulty of Quitting: The Dilemma It is not that people do not know that smoking is bad. As a matter of fact, many smokers have tried to kick the habits and failed including those who are actually very serious about it. The difficulty of giving up smoking is real and proverbial. The addiction to nicotine, or any other drug, is both physiological and psychological, and few really succeeded and even fewer did it ?cold turkey? without costly programs and devices. How true was Mark Twain when he said that to cease smoking was the easiest thing he had ever done; and he ought to know it because he had done it a thousand times! The Bye Nico!

Helping the Hard-Core Smoker: A Clinician’s Guide $49.95 This book constitutes a major new resource for professionals working with hard core smokers and their families. It is designed as a practical, clinically useful and up-to-date guide for all those in a position to intervene: mental health professionals, physicians, dentists, nurses, pharmacists and other health care professionals, clergy, human resource and employee assistance program corporate staff, and teachers and guidance counselors.New research suggests that difficult-to-treat smokers often have emotional problems adjusting to stopping smoking. Some also have psychiatric diagnoses or abuse other substances. These are factors which interfere with their efforts to quit.Because these difficulties have been poorly understood, hard-core smokers have not been provided with adequate resources and skills to overcome their addiction. These smokers are in need of increasingly comprehensive assessment and treatment.Despite massive public health education about the dangers of cigarette smoking, rates of smoking among the population are no longer declining in the United States and the success rates of clinical programs for smokers remain low. Helping the Hard-Core Smoker seeks to explain why current approaches are often inadequate and how best to help today’s highly nicotine-dependent smokers who are struggling with their addiction quit.

Japan Health Handbook $130.68 Widely recognized when it was first published as the best source of information on the Japanese health care system available in English, Japan Health Handbook has now been completely revised and updated. This is one book that no foreign resident of Japan will want to be without. Japan Health Handbook covers every health care related situation you might face in Japan, including choosing a health insurance plan and a doctor or other caregiver who is right for you, having regular checkups, keeping your children healthy, getting proper nutrition and exercise, and even having ababy, caring for an elderly relative, and dealing with the death of a non-Japanese. In each case the book is highly specific, even outlining any complicated paperwork that needs to be completed. Anyone who has known the frustration of making one phone call after another in a search for answers, onlyto be put on hold again and again, will greatly appreciate the research and care that have gone into this book. The emphasis throughout is not just on treating sickness but also on promoting good health, so preventive health care, proper nutrition, and sports are all treated in depth. Rather than recommending specific practitioners or treatments, Japan Health Handbook simply lets you know what your alternatives are and provides you with the resources to make your own informed choices. It answers questions that you may not even have known you had, and points you in the directionof a fuller, healthier life in Japan. Did you know that: if you dial the emergency number 119 in Japan and are physically unable to speak but simply tap twice on the receiver and then leave it off the hook, an emergencyteam will trace the call and come to your house? Japanese soba noodles are a lot more nutritious than udon? Several hospitals and clinics offer smoking cessation programs that have helped many people to quit?
