Zero Smoking - A Product Review

By Amy Hudson

As a rapidly growing number of smokers in the whole world are attempting to kick their smoking habit, they are being weighed down with contradictory information about the health hazards of habitual smoking, the difficulty of trying to quit smoking, the undeniable social issues involved, and so on and so forth. As such, the process of quitting smoking is quickly becoming one of the most debated subjects in recent years; and the quest for new radically effective quit smoking aids has expanded into a relentless search.

Various techniques have been applied to determine the most ideal treatment option to expedite and ease the process of kicking the habit. Unfortunately, as of this writing, no specific technique has been innovated notwithstanding the pervasion of countless products with dubious effectiveness.

The practice of acupuncture is a prevalent notion in smoking cessation attempts, and acupuncture principles have been used through different ways. In addition to acupuncture itself, some techniques that involve acupuncture principles are cold laser therapy and, a recent addition, Zero Smoke magnet treatment.

Comparable to the acupuncture process, Zero Smoke uses magnets to invigorate specific body points to accelerate the production of endorphins and influence the addiction-related nerve centers. But, though the age-old acupuncture techniques have worked for several decades and centuries, there is inadequate proof to prove the reliability of these new variations. With these in mind, in the paragraphs that follow, we will try to present more information about this reasonably little-known method.

The primary distinction between the Zero Smoke magnets and the practice of acupuncture is their unique stimulation points. As the latter targets numerous regions in the body - such as, for example, in the case of smoking cessation acupuncture wherein the ear, nose, and wrists are the stimulation points - the Zero Smoke method focuses on just a particular point on the ears.

One more difference is that the acupuncture process employs needles, whilst the Zero Smoke method employs 2 magnets. Presumably, the reasoning behind this is that the Zero Smoke magnets share stimulating effects comparable to that of needles when placed opposite of each other on the two sides of the ears. It is stipulated that the opposite polarity of the magnets is a successful stimulant for this area since ear tissues are not as thick as most.

Public feedback about this Zero Smoke product is thus far divergent. There are individuals who firmly maintain that Zero Smoke therapy is a complete rip off because Zero Smoke includes numerous hidden expenses. Conversely, there are a number of smokers who swear that it does work. On the downside, generally speaking, the negative response to the Zero Smoke program far outweighs the favorable. Although the moderate success rate cannot be discarded, the growing failure rate should caution target Zero Smoke users to not expect a lot from the product.

On the whole, the feeble response to this particular type of smoking cessation aid is exceedingly daunting. In this light, we can not, in all candor, promote the Zero Smoke system for your use. - 15437
