NICOmate may help you stop smoking! (Review & Giveaway)

You don't know this but I smoke. I started after my aunt died in 2005 because I didn't know how to handle it. I have tried to quit cold turkey, but the withdrawal symptoms were too much for me. I've also tried quitting other times just by gradually limiting my cigarettes, but something stressful would come up and I'd run right back to them.

It is a habit I am ashamed of having, and only my personal friends and family know that I smoke. It's very expensive, and it shortens my life span. But the one thing that really clinched that fact that I need to quit was my hospital stay. They had put me on breathing treatments because I was going through withdrawal symptoms that make me cough. It wasn't even part of my infection or the reason I was admitted. I knew something had to be done so I could live to take care of my family.

NICOmate is a leading researcher and developer of premium electronic cigarettes. So how does an electronic cigarette actually work? It sort of works like the vaporizer your mom used to use when you had a cold with parts working as one. You can find out more information on NICOmate.

Many people ask if electronic cigarettes are safe. Actually, they are a less harmful alternative to actual cigarettes because inhaling anything except oxygen is harmful, no matter what it is. While some studies may show that they are just as harmful as actual cigarettes, no research suggests that they cause cancer and if there was that would mean that nicotine replacement therapies such as the inhaler, patch, and gum would also be.

So if you are looking to stop smoking but need the chemical cessation of nicotine and the physical part of having something that looks and feels like a cigarette, give NICOmate a try.

WHAT I THOUGHT

Quitting smoking has been on my "goal" list at the start of every new year. But my hospital stay made it go from the middle of the list to the top. So when NICOmate approached me to try out their Disposable Electronic Cigarettes, I didn't hesitate.

Disposable Electronic Cigarettes that are ready out of the package and don't require charging. They are good for up to 400 puffs, which is the equivalent of 1.5 packs of cigarettes. I've never tried an e-cigarette before so I was a little nervous if it would work. I took it out of the tube it came in, took a puff, and was surprised that it tasted like an actual cigarette. Because of the vapor, it didn't have that "cigarette smoke" taste that even name brand cigarettes have.

I found it very comforting to know that while it looked like a cigarette (It even has an LED on the top to resemble a lit cigarette) and felt like a cigarette. It had a premium flavor (I chose tobacco, by the way.) that wasn't too overpowering or strong. It's great to know that I have a craving but don't want to smoke a whole cigarette, I can take a puff or two and the craving is gone.

Do I truly believe that the NICOmate Disposable Electronic Cigarette will help me quit smoking? Eventually, yes. The only thing stopping me from quitting is myself. I know I can quit in time. Since I know I have family that support me and NICOmate for those cravings, smoking may become a thing of the past.
