Why Smokeless Tobacco Products Are a Bad Alternative to Smoking
With the ever-increasing bans on smoking, and no-smoking areas appearing everywhere, both indoors and outdoors, 
some people have decided the solution is to turn to smokeless tobacco products.
Also, those who are looking for the best way to quit smoking might think smokeless tobacco products have a lower health risk.
These include, but are not limited to: chewing tobacco, snuff, dipping tobacco, dissolvable tobacco, topical tobacco paste (applied to the skin), tobacco gum, and tobacco water (mixture of tobacco and water).
New York City Bans Flavored Tobacco Products
On October 27, 2010, Mayor Michael R. Bloomberg signed into city law a prohibition of the sale of most forms of 
flavored tobacco products. Unlike the FDA’s (Food and Drug Administration’s) recent flavored-cigarettes federal ban, the NYC ban includes cigars and smokeless tobacco.
The law specifically includes banning “chocolate, vanilla, honey, candy, cocoa, dessert, alcoholic beverage, herb or spice flavors.” Now the only flavors allowed are “tobacco, menthol, mint or wintergreen flavors.”
The adult smoking rate in New York City has fallen over the last few years, but the same can’t be said for public high school students. Flavored tobacco products are usually targeted at the younger population. Therefore, Mayor Bloomberg feels this might be the best way to quit smoking for them, as non-flavored tobacco products would not be as pleasant to smoke.
The penalty for breaking this law is up to $2,000 or having their tobacco-vending license suspended.
Increase in Outdoor Smoking Bans Throughout the United States
One reason the BestWayToQuitSmoking.com Program has become so popular is due to the fact that it’s becoming more and more difficult for smokers to find someplace to smoke due to new strictly-enforced laws. This is yet another good reason to quit smoking NOW. Fortunately this program truly IS the best way to quit smoking because it’s all-natural, inexpensive, and it works. Look at some of the most recent no-smoking laws.
VIRGINIA: The Virginia Indoor Clean Air Act requires state agencies and localities to consider reasonable no-smoking areas in any building they own or lease. But in Fairfax County, they’ve taken it a step farther. As of December 1, 2010, you will no longer be able to smoke in county-owned bus shelters while waiting for a bus. Violators will be fined up to $25.
