* The active ingredient in Nicotrex™ is lobelia inflata. Each bottle is a 30 day supply of medicine (90 capsules). The capsules contain 130 mg. of lobelia inflata in a base of certified organic brown rice flour.
Lobelia mimics the effects of nicotine but is non-addictive. In smoking cessation, its use as a replacement for nicotine helps the smoker by reducing withdrawal symptoms and the desire to smoke.
How it works....the active ingredient of this herbal medicine mimics the effects of nicotine by stimulating the preganglionic nicotinic receptors and depressing them. The action closely resembles that of nicotine but is milder and non-addicting. Nicotrex™ is considered to be Mother Nature's alternative to nicotine replacement products. In layman's terms, the active herbal ingredient of this medicine, fools the body into thinking that you are smoking when you are not!
This medicinal herb actually BLOCKS nicotine from reaching the brain's nicotine receptors, where the NICOTINE HIGH comes from! Scientists have proven that nicotine affects the brain and it is here where nicotine must be beaten. Our formula does just this without the use of chemicals. This all natural herbal formula supports the smoker in times of stress, irritability, insomnia, fatigue, and when other withdrawal symptoms, both physical and psychological, test the smoker. The main ingredient is also recognized as an appetite suppressant......good news for those people who are concerned about weight gain when they quit smoking.
Take 3 capsules daily. We recommend that you take 1 capsule a half-hour before each of your 3 daily meals. Many smokers find that their worst cravings for nicotine occur after they eat and this is why we make this recommendation. As smoking is one of the toughest addictions to conquer, we recommend that you continue taking the medicine for 3 months. The longer you are free of the nicotine, the better your chances of staying quit! This also gives your body some time to naturally expel the toxins and pollutants received from smoking.
* If you have a medical condition it is wise to consult a doctor before using any herbal medicine.
*You should take them for at least 2-3 months. This will give your body time to naturally expel the nicotine and other smoke pollutants it has stored up over the years of smoking, giving you a better chance to remain nicotine free! You should take the Multi_Vitamins every day.
*If you continue to smoke you might experience lightheadedness, dizzy spells or nausea. You might experience these symptoms anyway, as they are common with the withdrawal process. If you really must light up a cigarette, then maybe you are not ready to quit. Stop taking the medicine for a few days until you can make a stronger commitment. We know that it is truly hard to quit and it might take you a few attempts. It is very important to set a Quit Date and to stick to it. You'll feel much better if you do.
*Do not use Nicotrex™ with the nicotine patch or nicotine gums otherwise you will be defeating the whole purpose of this medicine.
*Many people have called us and said they found it easy to quit smoking using Nicotrex™. Each person is different in regards to the withdrawal symptoms they experience. We can say that the active ingredient of this medicine is proven to ease withdrawal symptoms in general. It is also proven to be a stress reliever, a cough reliever, a respiratory stimulant, an expectorant and an appetite suppressant.
*The active ingredient of Nicotrex™ is very similar to nicotine in its physiological effects but it is milder than nicotine and non-addicting. We ask that you talk to your physician before starting the capsules. Herbal research has been very limited in regards to how the fetus might react to various herbal medicines. Nicotine in any form can cause harm to your unborn baby and because this herb 'mimics' nicotine, we feel this recommendation is sound.
*By `taking the plunge' and becoming a non-smoker, you should expect the first few days to be fairly tough but maybe not as bad as you expected. Also, there are certain times of the day when you automatically light up through habit more than physical addiction. Find an alternative for these moments. Take a walk, read a book, catch up on housework, treat yourself, and so on. Be aware of the triggers that cause you to automatically light up...when the phone rings, when starting your car, when you get upset, etc. There are many resources available to people who are trying to quit smoking, including some very good publications from Lung & Cancer Associations and probably from your doctor as well. Use these resources, ask your family and friends for support, etc.
