Anyone heard of this? Found it here.

I don't smoke myself, but I know lots do and have problems trying to give up. If this new therapy works, then it may solve many of these problems in the future.

All help would be welcome I imagine. I have never smoked either but know people who have and have found great difficulty when giving up the habit.

I don't know if American cigarettes are the same as the English ones in terms of additive but for English cigarette nicotine is the least addictive part of the tobacco. If they made to cigarette providers remove these chemicals, folk wouldn't get hooked on them. The nicotine only needs two days to break free off, hence the other compounds.
