Philip Morris USA to Introduce Marlboro Snus.

Philip Morris USA announced today that the company is introducing into test market Marlboro Snus, a tobacco pouch product that is neither cigarettes nor spit tobacco like dip or chew. Unlike traditional spit tobacco, pouches were designed especially for adult smokers who are interested in smokeless tobacco alternatives to cigarettes.
Marlboro Snus builds on the brand equity of the best selling cigarettes brand in the U.S. and comes in four varieties - Rich, Mild, Mint and Spice. Marlboro Snus utilizes a unique flavor strip and dried tobacco which makes it flavorful and spit-free.
"Consumer research shows that some adult smokers are interested in smokeless tobacco alternatives to cigarettes," said John R. Nelson, president, operations and technology, Philip Morris USA. "Marlboro Snus is a smokeless tobacco product that we believe smokers like. It is our hope that adult smokers interested in a smokeless tobacco alternative to cigarettes will switch to Marlboro Snus."
Philip Morris USA will introduce Marlboro Snus in the Dallas/Fort Worth area in August to understand adult smoker acceptance of this new product.
"This new product from Marlboro represents a proposition that embraces the flavor heritage of Marlboro cigarettes and connects it to a new and unique product offering. Marlboro Snus delivers the taste and quality that adult smokers expect from Marlboro in no-spit tobacco pouches," said Nelson.
Marlboro Snus is part of Philip Morris USA’s continuing efforts to make progress against its growth strategy. Philip Morris USA’s growth strategy aims to add to the mix of products it offers starting with those tobacco or tobacco-related products that are adjacent and similar to its existing business, cigarettes.

Stop Smoking And Get Your Freedom Back

Are you really tired of being chained to a pack of cigarettes? After so many years, this is the way that many smokers do feel, only they can not seem to break free from them. So many people that smoke cigarettes have tried to quit repeatedly and have no been successful. Why is this particular addiction so hard to break? The body does not react in the same way as people who use other drugs. There is no real head spinning or mood alterations when you smoke a cigarette in comparison to say, smoking marijuana. Of course, the nicotine does cause a physical reaction in the body, it is just not a mind altering reaction like other drugs can give.

The big question is what is one way that could make any smoker be able to quit? Well, evidently there is not one. There are a lot of nicotine products available that are supposed to help you quit, but studies have shown that the success rate for for quitting using these products is relatively low. Still, people buy them everyday in the hopes that one of these products will help them to break free from smoking. Sometimes people will see their family doctor and get help from there. There are pills on the market now that are supposed to help, but these have some side affects that are not agreeable with everyone. They are still on the market, and are still being used.

The one thing that it all comes down to is the will power and determination of the person that is trying to quit. A smoker must have these two things because they will not be successful without them. There are no products that can make you quit. If you smoke cigarettes while you use some products, they can make you sick. This is why it is so important to know whether you can handle not smoking once you are using a product that does not allow you to smoke. You already have an addiction, you do not want to become sick also.

Many smokers find that it is helpful to join a support group of other smokers who are trying to quit and be counseled by those who have already been successful. Talking to others that have managed to stop smoking could provide the one tip you need that could make all of the difference. Different things work for different people. If you are not ready to stop smoking, you probably will not stop. You have to be in the proper state of mind in order to quit. Sometimes it will take a smoker months or even years before they are sick enough of smoking to do almost anything to stop. Once you reach this point, you should have a fighting chance.

Electronic Cigarettes And Your Friendships

Let us say that you are a smoker who frequently gets together with friends who not only do not smoke, but they are friends that think your habit is nasty and do not like having to put up with your habit anymore. You may be thinking that you need to just find some new friends, but not so fast. There is a product out there that may very well be the answer you and your friends have been looking for. The device is the electronic cigarette. The electronic cigarette is a device that gives the smoker the sensation of smoking without having to actually light up or breath in nasty chemicals.

The first thing that needs to be cleared away before you even begin to think about buying an electronic cigarette is that they are not, as of yet, approved by the Food and Drug Administration. This is due to a concern that has been raised by some who think that the electronic cigarette could cause nicotine poisoning if not used correctly by the smoker. The electronic cigarette, you see, does not use tobacco. It actually uses a chemical solution composed of nicotine, alcohol, water, and several other chemicals.

It also does not feature some of the more serious addictive chemicals used by tobacco companies to keep smokers addicted, except for the nicotine that is used. The nicotine inside of the cartridges only releases nicotine into your body, but there is no tobacco, tar, or anything like that. This is why many consider the electronic cigarette to be a healthy alternative to conventional cigarette, although it is not entirely known how much healthier it may be.

The main reason that the electronic cigarette can get you back into the good graces of your friends is that it does not give off an odor, make your breath stink, or stain your teeth. It uses only the chemical vapor which is, as previously mentioned, completely odor free. It also means that your friends will not have to put up with you taking smoking breaks or worrying about second hand smoke. As previously mentioned, the electronic cigarette is not FDA approved as of yet, but if you strongly feel that one of these would help out your social life when it comes to being a smoker, then there are resources available for you to do your own independent research. The electronic cigarette might not be a perfect solution to smoking, but it is much better than the tobacco cigarettes that you are using now.
