Confessions of a former smoker, Quit Smoking with Snus 1

[ProSkateNate90]

In one hand a cold beer, in the other a fat ass joint!

[baldursson9]

there is 3more times niktotine in snus then in one cigarette this is so much bullshit

[AceionzHardstyle]

@baldursson9 U knew that, but u didn't know that lungs absorb inhaled nicotine much more than your mucosa (in upper lip and gum) from snus? Get your facts straigh BOY....always wanted to say that ^^

[baldursson9]

@AceionzHardstyle maybe right about that about that kind of snus but snus that comes from my homeland is way stronger and is not in bags so it goes straight to the bloodstream and when you smkoke a ciggarete you smoke for a 3minutes(pack of day so its 60 minutes a day) when you have snus you have that nikotine in your lip for max 3 hours so you maybe inhale faster nokitine by smoking but there is so much more nokitine that goes to your veins by using any kind of snus issomuch harder to quit

[AceionzHardstyle]

@baldursson9 Maybe the point in this vid is to simply quit smoking cuz it harms lungs, not to stop using nikotine :D

[SteveyW0nder]

@baldursson9 Nicotine on its own is actually as bad for your health as caffeine, which means it's pretty safe as far as a chemical substance goes. It's the other mediums in which it is used; cigarettes, dip, that contain large amounts of carcinogens. Research done by universities concluded snus is anywhere from 90-98% safer than cigarettes.

[ParkourChase]

I find this very hard to masturbate to..

[Poundingthunder]

I love General snus! I am so glad we can get it here in the States now. Although it is a test market, I tell my friends about it. Just bought 2 cans but had to go to another store, it was sold out! So, it is slow going but seems to be catching on. These videos inspire me to quit with snus! Thanks!

[nydolls73]

I've never smokes, nor do I plan to. But I have done snus. With all the varieties and great flavors of snus, why smoke?

[ccm21r32]

nothing beats gaming with Snus and a citrus drink

[NateKhat24]

when did jason statham start doin meth?

[TSCMJ12]

FINALLY!! General snus is in the USA! I have to say the Swedes got it right.

[audiobuttmaster]

Viele Menschen hören auf mit der Schluss-Punkt-Basta-Fotzenkopp­-Methode. Ich aber nicht.

[Gyzyn]

I had my first snus today, I never smoked, and I like nasal snuff. My first snus was offraod frosted portion. I think it's too dry, becouse I bought it from the internet. Overall I liked it, and I'll probably buy some more again soon.

[buenahierva]

STOP SMOKING WEED AS WELL...LETS MAKE WEED SNUS :D

exelente mi amigo :)

[justinmechanic17]

@buenahierva Thats the best freakin idea I have heard in a long time ! Nicotine should be illegal.

[gri189]

In 3 months, this stuff has gotten me off cigarettes, in the sense that i can't stand them, even if i don't have snus around. The videos are awfully corny , but snus does work. It takes a bit of time to get used to, but after quitting (and hating) cigarettes, it's far easier to quit snus, easier to replace with a tobacco-free product. I'm going through it as we speak. Wish this was available in all EU, but that way the cigarette consumer population would drop very fast => great loss of money

[geri121]

@gri189 its a pitty that the tobacco lobby holds snus down so that we arent able to get it in our countries...

you have to import it but its totally worth the money and the time spending waiting ^^

[phuckthis1234]

Any time you want a cigarette put a portion of Thunder Extra Strong under your lip. I guarantee you will not want one in 5 minutes. It works in the morning even if you are at the bar (thats when I really want a cigarette). I wouldn't advise using it all day I smoked over 2 packs a day and there is still a little too much nicotine in Thunder ES for me. And it's great with cofee!

[mrelectricchurch]

I tried snussing and it just wasn't for me. I couldn't bring myself to swallow tobacco juice, but maybe I was doing it wrong. E cigarettes turned out to be the answer for me.

[xxgolgothasaurxx]

Grov goes better with coffee than a damn cigarette!! I am quite pleased with this, unlike the American shite that tastes like antifreeze.

[xxgolgothasaurxx]

Skruf Stark/ Nick And Johnny Strong ftw. This snus definitely works. Still want that first smoke of the day though.

[stoomskie]

nipple tweak at 4:49 ... i knew it was a porno

[charlegamer]

Take a bullet or never puff a smoke again?

[ericiidx]

propaganda out the ass in this video. doesn't this guy work for northerner? oh well, at least everything he says is completely true (about snus and smoking.)

[kenshin420jj]

all this cig talk....Ima go smoke now =)

[e6e2e3e1]

Lucky Strike white portion!

SNUS FTW

[davidjmechanic]

I used snus for 1 1/2 years to quit smoking after 10 years. All it did was turn my gums purple, kept me locked on nicotine, and threw away my money. Each year every snus company adds more nicotine in to there blends to keep you wanting more. Never use snus no matter how good your buzzing from it. If you think back to when you didn't need smoking or snus to stay happy , it will help. Go through the withdrawl pains and just quit nicotine. Good Luck

[e6e2e3e1]

@davidjmechanic That's not true. Snus is addictive (more than cigarettes), of course, but actually, it's really less dangerous than cigarettes, and for people whose really want to quit smoking, is snus the best way. You know, those chewing-gums with nicotine, e-cigarettes and more medical products are practically for nothing... I mean, product like nicotine chewing gum will not help you. If you really want to quit smoking, so you have to really STOP, not trying. And snus can help.

[MurphGiovanni]

i agree with you, man...quitting smoking is hard as hell...it is the habitual aspect of the adiction that makes it so hard...i got used to having cigarettes with certain activities...i swear, i couldn't make a cell phone call w/o a ciagrette for the longest time...finally, i got a bad case of the flu...terrible sore throat...lasted about 10 days...i couldn't smoke at all in that time bc my throat was on fire...then i just stuck w/ not smoking...now it's been 2 years...so congrats on quitting

[tyzorg]

It helped me quit smoking aswell. but then I got addicted to DIP for over a year..

[Tumppe1337]

@tyzorg dip = bad, snus = a gift from heaven

[justinxpwsane]

wont u get mouth cancer from snus?

[Dylan9384]

@justinxpwsane No. There aren't enough of the harmful chemicals that cause tumors in snus. You'd have to consume the amount equal to a car. However, brush your teeth, see your dentist, see your doctor... but you should be doing that anyway

[Nafae86]

I'm following you dude, i just reduced smoking for a couple of days from 20 cigs per day to 3 cigs, and i'm using now snus instead , it's kinda horrible but i'm forcing myself to snus right now, cheers

[calebblock]

@Nafae86 same here... you lose all cravings for the smoke ...you get used to the flavors pretty fast though! no need to smoke anymore :)

[nekmed89]

that I use have 8 mg niktone

[rickfish52]

Very nice video,and good for you on quiting smoking.

[Joeli888]

This videos are great! I stopped smoking and nowadays I snus about 1 "puck" per week., sometimes more it depends. And I feel so much better, now I can go to gym and do more exercise and I don't get tired so easier. So why EU banned snus in Finland? Smoking kills, snus don't.

[brukernavn142]

@Joeli888 EU thougt that snus was more dangorus bacause of the higher nic lvl , they were wrong snus doesnt kill

[Joeli888]

@brukernavn142 Yeah but they should know that nicotine doesn't kill. It only makes u addicted, of course it does harm to your heart etc. My grandfather has used snus over 30 years and he's doing fine excluding his teeth are just terrible. But my moms dad smoked 20 years and he died 2 years ago in cancer. And I can tell u, use snus. It doesn't matter if your teeth get worse. U can buy new ones.

[lepsinon]

damn eu banned the snus in finland. Luckily the russian border is near so I can import some.

[Tumppe1337]

hell yeah keep that snus flowin here

[1337aren]

@davidjmechanic

Please, dont talk about stuff you never have tried..kid

[hejsan119]

@davidjmechanic... you havent snused before... so STFU....

[traxxasnitrosport94]

frelst her ass, 2 bokser skruf original og en general white:D

[alexmuhamed]

hyvää noska

[nhlpens]

Cigarettes taste like crap, Wonder why I ever smoked, General & Skoal ftw!

:D

[victorlamay]

Some of the comments seem to completely misunderstand the way that someone who has become to rely on cigarettes needs a substitute. ~Buying a book or going for a walk will not work for some people but Snus has certainly worked for me, this video describes it well and I reckon the guy is a genuine ex-smoker.

If you want to feel less breathless and less at risk of becoming ill from your habit I would recommend trying Swedish Snus and as some others have mentioned, giveit a fair try - it is worthy

[jimmeh213]

I've successfully used snus (General white portion) to quit smoking whilst living here in Sweden. Haven't smoked a single cig since. I feel great. I can smell again, especially when my mates come back into the pub from a fag, which I never noticed when I was a smoker. However, I've noticed I do put a lot more salt on my meal at dinner time...

[e6e2e3e1]

He's telling us truth. I tryed snus and, for God balls, I realy stopped smoking with this great swedish thing! Its realy easy to stop smoking with snus.

[Andreaszzz84]

That is just like i see it, i dont like smoking either :) But i use snus all the day everyday, even when i sleep :D

[Ironzealot7531]

while you're sleeping! O_o

that's probably not a good idea either. Nicotine isn't exactly good for you, even if it's not carcinogenic.

[dennislbrown]

I'm snusing now, down to almost no cigarettes, and the goal is to phase out snusing within a year. Even if I stay snusing, it is about 90% less toxic than smoking. Obviously the lesser of two evils.

[hyomickgt650]

Best way to stop smoking - Cold Turkey. It's the only way.

Gums and patches don't work (don't wear a patch when sleeping - freaky man - very vivid dreams;) )

Oh, another way to encourage yourself to stop smoking - see your doctor and get your blood pressure checked.

"You should give up smoking Mick, something going to give and I'm afraid it'll be you. Give up now or you won't make here next year" - Now that's encouragement.

BTW - I was a smoker (20/day) for 30 years

[200deadlift]

idiot buy an allen carr book

[hffee]

there is more nicotine in snus but your body is bad at picking it up in your lip, so everything isnt used, but with smoke its in your lungs and every small bit of the nicotin gets picked up

[leafybean]

I had smoked for three years and had failed 4 serious attempts to quit. The gum and patches never gave me enough of a nicotine kick to keep me off of the smoke.

I used snus heavily for 3 months then began to step down.

I got down to just 2 snus portions a day and then quit snus all together.

Once I got past the oral fixation of smoking, nicotine was easy to kick.

Go from smoking, then snus'ing, to nothing.

It works.

[butterpoop]

I agree totally! I'm on Camel Snus right now and it's significantly reduced my cravings! The first day I used Snus I stepped down from over a pack of cigarettes a day to 3, then 2 the next day, and I'm on day 3 and haven't smoked one cigarette. Snus is the lesser of two evils it's still tobacco but much healthier than snuff or chewing tobacco.

[BlackLookingGlass]

I did the same thing.. I still snus because I enjoy it once and a while, but my "need" for nicotine is virtually gone. I'm smoke free, and it feels great..

The major problem with some people trying snus, is that they don't give themselves enough time to get used to something different and new..

[Eirikguitar]

i wonder what he did with the rest of the sigarette pack

[gh0st333]

! like snus quite a lot, but I believe you will get addicted to it too! If you don't smoke, don't try it.

[Guinea54]

I have read that blood nicotine in smokers and snusers are very similar. It just is the distribution of nicotine is different. Smoking is a hard hit of nicotine and happens much faster, and you get a big spike quick. Snus has slower absorption so you keep it in your mouth longer. But I think it balances out the same.

[PAGunGuy]

This is correct. I have no idea why someone gave your comment a thumbs down. My mood is much more even using snus. Cigarettes gave me a quick spike of nicotine, but then a little while later, I was on edge again. Snus keeps my nicotine levels nice and even, plus my lungs feel much much better.

[DestinationShadows]

Your video helped me out a ton with my homework project, would you mind if i gave you credit. ^-^

[lolKbgTgm6621what]

5:08 - well, it's not all that bad, now you have a shinier head!

[weakmind69]

After watching this guy, I order my 1st general Dry Mini Mint just to try out. Smoking for 7-8 yrs, IM fucking sick of it. Tried everything and nothing works. Nicotine gum is a waist of fucking money. I hope this snus crap really works. So far I found nothing negative about Sweden Snus.

[PAGunGuy]

The mini might not work to quit smoking. Your body is used to pretty high levels of nicotine. You might want to try regular size snus, and maybe even some "sterk" or strong, portions, like General Sterk or Nick & Johnny. Good luck!

[BlackLookingGlass]

Thunder frosted is the strongest snus out there, and it is mint flavor. 16mg nicotine.

[e6e2e3e1]

Oden is with 17mg nicotine :-D

[alexander1993]

remember snus is not made for stop smoking, just very helpfull, you will get stuck with snus instead XD trust me :D

[Snuse]

It's much harder to quit snus... 1 cigarette = aprox 2 mg niotine - and it takes about 3 mins to smoke one?

Snus - 8 - 16 mg per portion and you can have it in for aprox 30-45 mins.

The body is much more used to alot of nicotine, thus, harder to quit.

[lolKbgTgm6621what]

I'm not so sure there, buddy. Most smokers smoke two cigarettes in the span of 30 mins, and each cigarette is a lot more nicotine "at once". Snus is more drawn out, so your brain isn't as used to the sudden "blast" of nicotine. Easier to stop a bike going down a gentle slope than it is to stop on a cliff.

And I doubt people absorb all of the nicotine in snus - I'm the filthy sort who re-uses snus, and I still get a buzz the second time.

[zanekidd]

im pretty sure there is more than 2 mg of nicotine in cigarettes dude...if dipping tobacco contains about 1.6 mg then cigarettes much have atleast 8...check me if i'm wrong but thats just what i think

[tdr20o0]

the strongest ones contain 1 mg, the rest from 0.5-0.8 mg

[MurderSoul216]

Why would you want to quit? Why are tobacco users quitters?

Why can't anyone use to just enjoy nicotine....

[PAGunGuy]

Agreed!!!!

[calebblock]

@Snuse really not true from my experience. Snus was very easy to step off of.

[wowmage111]

that what i did

[skept1c615]

wow you described me perfectly, and i am trying out my first snus right now and i think i get what you mean, It would be easy to stop with snus!

[bigdan0413]

i wish i had an accent like this

[nomadeper]

I've heard this music on a porn movie before..

[bedrock555]

@nomadeper lmao

[MurphGiovanni]

@nomadeper me too! that porn where your mom banged those black guys...classic film...four stars

[bgm84185]

@nomadeper lol

[theawesomejack]

@nomadeper I said that as well when it started playing! YAY FOR PRON MUSIK

[EiPysty2007]

im trying to stop smoking with snus. it just sucks that i live in finland, its illegal to buy snus in here :( basically the only way i can get snus is to travel to sweded buy boat.

[alexander1993]

why is it illegal

[pedarikarhu]

Coz its illegal in european union countries. But sweden was allowed because sweds have so much users/long history with snus. We finns werent so lucky... :(

[MetalGodLobban]

Finlands/Ålands-färjan sells snus right?

Better price even.

[skept1c615]

fuck the EU and I know it is about to happen here in america too :( nau :( But who knows what the future holds, good luck to us all!!

[thugmaster32]

nuuskaa saa kyl iha kioskeista tiskin alta...

[halla1110]

Snus is the shit! General and Skruf<3

[undeadpresident]

Snus is better than smoking and other smokeless tobacco because it contains less carcinogens. However it still is carcinogenic and nicotine is still a harmful drug even alone. And if you find yourself in a situation where you are unable to obtain it you will still have to feed your addiction or suffer.

[gio222222]

All smokers are idiots!!!

fuck cigarettes

[jasonjamaican]

well its great that this guy has stop! but is not was because of snus, it was in spite of snus..the easiest and best way to stop smoking is to set a stop day and just stop! exercise and drink plenty of water..trust me you'll be drinking plenty of water, at first you might lose a little sleep but you'll soon get over it! stop smoking you are a mug!

[lovepeaceful1]

isnt this chew he is talking about?

another addiction, well i am using the nictoine gum it seems to work from a pack a day i am down to 5 cigs a day. and thats natural tobacco american spirits. i am trying to ween off the chemicals first. 2 weeks good so far.

[wstk123]

No snus is packaged in small portions and placed under ur lip ( there is also powder snus aswell ) though you still put it up your lip and ill tell you it's ALOT better then smoking. For your health and your appeal as for the smell.

[jamescaptainfarrell]

What about the up and down and up and down. Although snus might be less harmful, your still an addict. I myself like oliver twists. I'm quitting smoking cold turkey

[weekendineurope]

I bought my Snus at northerner . com, the order took only 4 days to USA :-)

smokey days are gone hopefully...

[ModelGundam91]

good job, smoking is bad. snusing is the best.
