WhyQuit - Wednesday, December 31, 2008

Click to download Freedom from Nicotine Whether your New Year's quitting resolution is to stop smoking, end oral tobacco use or break free from the nicotine gum or lozenge, you're in luck. Packed with quitting insights, Freedom from Nicotine - The Journey Home is a free, 244 page, 2.6mb pdf e-book being released today.

The book was written by John R. Polito, and former 30-year heavy smoker and editor of WhyQuit, a popular free online quitting site. With more than 400 footnotes, most linked to medical journal articles, the book shares the research and science underlying the cessation method which, by far, undeniably accounts for more long-term success stories each year than all other methods combined.

"Pharmaceutical industry influence falsely portrays cold turkey quitting as nearly impossible and non-science-based," says Polito. "The assertions are insane and it's time to fight back."

WhyQuit is also home to Joel Spitzer's free e-book Never Take Another Puff, to more than 60 free video counseling lessons and to a free online support group, Freedom from Tobacco. The site sells nothing, declines donations and is staffed entirely by volunteer cessation educators.

Founded in July, 1999, current U.S. Google rankings list WhyQuit as the #1 ranked "cold turkey" quitting forum, the #1 search result among 232,000 "nicotine cessation" search results, #2 among 8.2 million "stop smoking" results and #3 among 7.4 million "quit smoking" results.
