I see the infomercial all over the TV. It’s some type of herbal cocktail that is unbelievably guaranteed to make you quit smoking in 7 days.
Does anyone have the dope on this stuff?
Man, the net is floodedwith this stuff right now. Each site no doubt the destination of millions of pieces of spam being mailed out as I type
I’m unable to find out how long nicotine remains in the bloodstream. Most of the sites say this thing takes 7 extra days of some other expensive pill thing. That’s 14 days without smoking. I figure if someone can get that far without smoking, they’ve probably kicked the habit.
Don’t have any info on how it affects your cigarette desires; sorry. My personal opinion? Well, lets just say I wish I’d thought of it first…
Anybody try it?
Nanoda, technically, it takes 63 days to break a habit (or so i’ve heard).
gypsy - that seems like a fairly arbitrary number. Heard where?
63?
42?
It won’t work. If there was a legitimate medication that could make that claim, pharmaceutical companies would be all over it. You think some two-bit snake oil operation is going to scoop Pfizer?
Most likely, the guarantee is elaborate and complicated, and requires the purchaser to send in various forms and so forth. It’s probably designed, like many rebates, to be forgotten about or not bothered with. If the product isn’t very expensive, or is an amount that people would be willing to let go to avoid irritating effort, so much more so.
Either that, or it works as advertised. But I doubt it.
Every ad I’ve seen for Smoke Away also has a bottle of weight-loss pills thrown in as a freebie. I think that says it all, doesn’t it?
