    True.

    I notice that non-smoking ladies react and behave friendlier now. That's pleasant.

    It is popular in Japan today to drink water immediately after waking up every morning. Furthermore, scientific tests have proven its value. We publish below a description of use of water for our readers. For old and serious diseases as well as modern illnesses the water treatment had been found successful by a Japanese medical society as a 100% cure for the following diseases:

    Headache, body ache, heart system, arthritis, fast heart beat, epilepsy, excess fatness, bronchitis asthma, TB, meningitis, kidney and urine diseases, vomiting, gastritis, diarrhea, piles, diabetes, constipation, all eye diseases, womb, cancer and menstrual disorders, ear nose and throat diseases.

    METHOD OF TREATMENT
    1. As you wake up in the morning before brushing teeth, drink 4 x 160ml glasses of water

    2. Brush and clean the mouth but do not eat or drink anything for 45 minute

    3.. After 45 minutes you may eat and drink as normal.

    4. After 15 minutes of breakfast, lunch and dinner do not eat or drink anything for 2 hours

    5. Those who are old or sick and are unable to drink 4 glasses of water at the beginning may commence by taking little water and gradually increase it to 4 glasses per day.

    6. The above method of treatment will cure diseases of the sick and others can enjoy a healthy life.

    The following list gives the number of days of treatment required to cure/control/reduce main diseases:
    1. High Blood Pressure (30 days)
    2. Gastric (10 days)
    3. Diabetes (30 days)
    4. Constipation (10 days)
    5. Cancer (180 days)
    6. TB (90 days)
    7. Arthritis patients should follow the above treatment only for 3 days in the 1st week, and from 2nd week onwards – daily..

    This treatment method has no side effects, however at the commencement of treatment you may have to urinate a few times.
    It is better if we continue this and make this procedure as a routine work in our life. Drink Water and Stay healthy and Active.

    Indeed.

    Haven't smoked a tobacco ciggie in years or even one of those 'Way Out Woodbines' in a long while but the stink gets in your clothes/hair/breath.

    Haven't fully quit smoking yet but I have made it through four consecutive days at work without a cig during my shift. No small feat. The weekend is going to be the challenge.

    You are still a smoker who is craving a smoke all day. Just stop. When you are not looking forward to giving yourself a treat / reward at the end of the day in the form of a smoke, you will forget all about it.

    By using positive reinforcement you are making your head think that smoking is incredibly important to you.

    If you made it past four days you're now a non-smoker!!

    So regard yourself as that, someone who doesn't and doesn't need to smoke.

    Just say, "I don't need it" or , "I don't want it" and do or think of something else.

    If that don't work, use lobelia, just one bit of leaf and the thought/urge/feeling/ craving for tobacco's gone in less than a minute or so.

    Once that early stage of craving is over, you won't need lobelia again.

    yes, but you will always be an ex-smoker

    Lobelia cannot help you against the mental addiction

    when others light up, when you have a cup of coffee, whatever the trigger, you will want to light up

    That will last your whole life

    As with any addictions there are various levels. If you were a 'heavy' smoker you'll always crave a puff with that cup of coffee or beer. If you were a 'recreational' smoker for want of a better term, the cravings are not as intense. Read somewhere where nicotine withdrawals can be harder to deal with than cocaine.

    Yes ENT....go and have a good puke.



    From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

    Lobelia
    (pron.: /lɵˈbliə/)[2] is a genus of flowering plants .[3] English names include lobelia, asthma weed, barfweed, Indian tobacco, heaveleaf, pukeweed, retchwort, fool's bane, and vomitwort

    Adverse effects
    Because of its similarity to nicotine, the internal use of lobelia may be dangerous to susceptible populations, including children, pregnant women,[21] and individuals with cardiac disease. Excessive use will cause nausea and vomiting.[22] It also has a chemical known as Lobellicyonycin, which may cause dizziness.
    Several studies show that lobelia is ineffective in helping people to quit smoking.

    Read what he says closely Ent - he didn't smoke at work for four days, but when not at work puffed away like a good'un. So he is still a smoker who is tricking his body and mind into thinking that smoking it very important because after 10 hours fighting it, he rewards himself with a smoke.

    see, that is the contradiction I was trying to point out

    that early stage is merely the physical addiction, which Lobelia may be able to help reduce

    the mental addiction lasts forever and no drug/plant can help you with that, just your own willpower

    As usual from you, complete bullshit.

    You're as keen as ever to preach your version of hopelessness to withdrawing tobacco addicts.

    I know from experience that lobelia is effective in ending tobacco addiction.

    You only know your experience, which doesn't apply here.

    If you've got anything positive to contribute re. tobacco cessation, do so.

    If not take a hike weirdo.

    Sound the klaxon ! Meltdown approaching !


    Actually, Wikipedia was simply the first port of call for me, and I found it highly amusing to see a herb you have been touting so much, referred to as "barfweed, heaveleaf, pukeweed, retchwort, fool's bane, and vomitwort". Somehow it seemed apt in your case.
    You really should research things better, like Gouty Arthritis, before decreeing that it doesn't exist.
    You've got a serious problem LD.

    All you're doing is spreading negative information re. lobelia, just in a puerile effort at point scoring.

    Anyone interested in giving up tobacco is going to look past your negative tripe and references and read for themselves, then try lobelia (allready used in Champix).

    It's gonna be up to them to judge not you, sicko.

    The harm you're doing is sickening.

    Read it.

    Where did Storekeeper say he "puffed away like a good'un " when not at work, then after 10 hours at work rewards himself with a cig?

    I'd like to read what he has to say about it.
    A good method of quitting tobacco is to first reduce consumption, your own way, then quit entirely.

    He's obviously trying to quit and looking for some positive feedback to help.

    I first reduced smoking over a few weeks, then quit, then used lobelia periodically in the first few weeks.

    Now I'm over tobacco use and happy about it.

    How's your effort at quitting going?
