Emjay IV asked:


After a nasty bout of bronchitis and flu I have decided to try to give up smoking once and for all. I had my first cigarette, stolen from Mom’s packet (John Rolfe 30’s) when I was fourteen but I did not smoke as a habit until I was about 21, now I am 32 and after 11 years I am beginning to feel the kak effects. I have tried that chewing gum but it made me sick, the patches fell off and did not work in my opinion. What about acupuncture? Does that WORK? I figure if I do not stop now it will be too late….. any advice?

Hello, my dad is trying (and determined) to quit smoking. Some choices that he is willing to take is Nicoteen Gum, Nicoteen Patch, Chantix, or Cold turkey (when you quit smoking without any help). Please pick the option and list positives and negatives about it.
Oh yeah, and just to let you know, my dad only smokes about 1-2 cigarrettes a day. So he’s not a “heavy” smoker. He’s just still addicted to it.
