Some of the best and most freely available alternatives to smoking cigarettes are listed in this article.
Smoke
For those people who are looking to ditch their habit of smoking cigarettes, there are a number of alternatives out there that someone can use in order to do so.
Some of the best and most freely available options are listed below for you to take a look at.
Chewing Tobacco
Although starting a habit of chewing tobacco comes with its own set of health issues, it is an alternative to smoking that many people use. The reason for this is that it can still be used in those public venues where smoking cigarettes is banned and it comes in a range of different flavors that make it much more palatable. Even with this type of product there are
chewing tobacco alternatives that come without any actual tobacco in for a slightly healthier option.
Hookah
Also known as water pipes or even sometimes as narghila, with a hookah there is a water basin, multiple hoses, a body, and a bowl. Because the smoke from a hookah is filtered via the water in it, it is believed that it is less harmful than conventional cigarettes. For this reason many people smoke hookah instead of smoking cigarettes and some people even smoke it as a replacement to
drinking alcohol.
Cannabis
Thanks to the passing of the United States farm bill in 2018, cannabis became legal in certain states in America. As a result, its popularity has boomed over recent years. In addition to smoking the plant, some people also choose to consume it in other ways. This is especially thanks to the newly discovered therapeutic properties that the substance has been shown to have.
CBD gummies are a popular form of consuming cannabis.
Kretek
This is a type of cigarette that is popular in Indonesia and comes blended with cut up
clove buds along with some tobacco. The name comes from the crackling sound that is produced by the cloves when they burn. Because of geography and certain legislation, their use is not widely common across the United States of America, with them being more popular in South America and Europe.
Vape Pens
Vape pens and electronic cigarettes have always been marketed as a means of smoking cessation. However, recent research has questioned this idea as people seem to use them alongside smoking conventional cigarettes. These are now available across all of the United States of America with stores dedicated to the sale of vape pens / electronic cigarettes and the oil that goes inside of them to give them a pleasant taste that makes them highly palatable.
The above is by no means an extensive list of all the alternatives to cigarettes that are currently available on the market in the United States of America. However, they are a good starter that you should try before looking elsewhere for other options. Even if they do not get you to quit smoking cigarettes altogether, if they even have some impact on the amount of cigarettes that you smoke, it can only be seen as a positive thing.
