An alternative cigarette is approved overseas

Filed in archive Investigational by kevin on August 04, 2005

Another weapon in the fight for smoking cessation has been approved in Switzerland:

The NicStic uses a rechargeable heating coil in a plastic cigarette-sized stick to dispense nicotine without smoke.

Apparently the invention will allow smokers to "light up" without annoying others with passive smoke, and therefore avoid the increasing smoking bans in public places . . .

. . . The company is promising that the NicStic will release "a similar taste" to cigarettes without the health issues from tar, arseniclinks, cadmium and formaldehyde that a normal cigarette contains."
