Sunflower Seeds??

[nsd_user663_4734]

Hi fellow quitters

I have just been viewing a few non smoking videos on Youtube.

In one of the comments below the video someone mentions that sunflower seeds mimic nicotine and therefore can be a help if you eat them.

Has anyone else heard of this?

Seems a new one to me. :eek:

Hi IVB,

Yes I read it a few weeks ago on a site - can't remember where now and have been taking them ever since, I do find they help when I get a craving however, am not sure if it's the placebo effect and if I nibbled on.... say..... peanuts they would have the same effect but if it works why knock it........so am going to carry on regardless, try it and let me know.

Hi IVB

I've never used them myself and was a new one on me too until Kate mentioned them

Why not try them any thing that helps is just fine

Love

My Wife bought a big bag for me today, been munching them all day and they do seem to take the edge off the cravings.

Thank you for that info Bibleblack.

Certainly something to be aware of.
