The cost of CIGARETTES and NICOTINE-LACED "alternatives" are brutal to your health and wallet, but there is a natural escape plan

By herbelremedies // 2022-12-29

Smoking cigarettes or vaping can cost you and arm and a leg, and put your health in the gutter fast. Most health advocates won't go near nicotine, but there are plenty of "closet" smokers who don't tell anyone about their habit, and there are now tens of millions of Americans vaping free-based nicotine, and they too want out. From depression and anxiety to sickness and insolvency, smokers and people stuck vaping are completely addicted to nicotine, but only because they don't know anything else that makes them feel that way, or relieves them from the free-based-nicotine hangover (also known as nicotine spiking). Meanwhile, they spend thousands of dollars, not hundreds, each year, with no plan to quit, or at least not one that has decent chances of working. Here's how that story goes. The average US retail price of cigarettes hovers around $7.00 a pack, when you factor in the most expensive states, like New York and Connecticut, that charge a whopping $10.50 per pack. If you smoke a pack a day, that's over $200 per month, and over $2,600 per year. Two packs a day, on average, costs nearly $5,000 per year. Over a lifetime, that could easily add up to a quarter million dollars, wasted, and that's just the money spent on cigarettes. Added costs of smoking include: extra laundry and/or dry cleaning bills, teeth whiteners, extra dentistry, more sicknesses and time missed at work, air fresheners, lighters, plus the cost of failed quit methods (like patch, gum, lozenges, prescription medications).

Nicotine Replacement Therapy (NRT) Cost Analysis

You may or may not know this, but quitting smoking or vaping and choosing "nicotine alternatives" that still contain nicotine, for the most part, is a scam. Big Pharma works directly with Big Tobacco to keep you addicted to nicotine and buying their nicotine-laced products, knowing how hard it is to quit, if you're still using nicotine. It's like telling an alcoholic who drinks whiskey all day that they can quit if they just switch to beer, because it has less alcohol. Go figure. Check out these costs for "nicotine alternatives," and then compare them to natural remedies that offer better results for less money and less time.   Nicotine Gum (contains between 2mg and 4mg of nicotine) Average cost per box: $59.99 for 100 pieces Weeks 1-6 Recommended use: 1 piece every 1-2 hours Average number of pieces chewed per week: 70 Average cost per week: $42.00 First 6 weeks cost: $252 Weeks 7-9 Recommended use: 1 piece every 2-4 hours Average number of pieces chewed per week: 49 Average cost per week: $30.00 Weeks 7-9 cost: $90 Weeks 10-12 Recommended use: 1 piece every 4-8 hours Average number of pieces chewed per week: 28 Average cost per week: $17.00 Weeks 10 - 12 cost: $51 Total Cost to Quit Smoking (with only 6% average quit success rate): $393 Nicotine Patch (contains 7mg, 14mg, or 21mg of nicotine) Average cost per box: $59.99 for 14 patches Recommended use: 1 patch per day for 10 weeks Average cost per week: $30.00 Total Cost to Quit Smoking (with only 9% average quit success rate): $300
