Nicotine Replacement Therapy (NRT)

How does Nicotex Chewing Gum work?

A nicotine replacement treatment is Nicotex Chewing Gum. It includes nicotine to take the place of nicotine found in cigarette products. By replenishing the low amounts of nicotine in your body brought on by trying to stop smoking, it helps you quit. Giving your body the necessary amounts of nicotine that are often obtained by smoking, also lessens your cravings for tobacco. As a result, it lessens your desire to smoke and shields your body from the negative effects of addictive chemicals like cigarettes.

Key Benefits:

• Used for smoking cessation therapy
• Reduces withdrawal symptoms including nicotine craving associated with quitting smoking/chewed tobacco and gutka-containing tobacco
• Tobacco can hinder the absorption of vital vitamins and nutrients like calcium, vitamin C, and vitamin D. To counteract this, increasing the consumption of fruits and vegetables in your diet can help replenish these nutrients and reduce cravings for smoking.
• The consumption of ginseng has been found to potentially reduce the craving for smoking by affecting dopamine, a neurotransmitter associated with pleasure that is released during tobacco use. Ginseng tea can be a helpful option to consider.
• Chewing gum and mints can be effective in keeping your mouth occupied, particularly when you feel the urge to smoke. Regular chewing gum can be used for this purpose.
• Engaging in physical exercises such as cycling, running, or walking can divert attention away from tobacco cravings. Physical workouts can help reduce the urge to consume nicotine for a period of time.
