Overview

Sixty-two percent of e-cig users want to stop but haven't. Roughly fifty percent of adult smokers smoke themselves to death. But why? Sadly, the answer is the same.


None of us were born knowing our colors, or how to how to count, read, write or drive a car. We were taught. We learned. Why should nicotine dependency recovery be any different?


Less than an hour's read, Smart Turkey shares the keys to cold turkey, the method that each year generates the vast majority of successful ex-nicotine users.


Most quitting books focus on trying to help smokers quit smoking. Rarely is e-cigarette vaping or the smokeless tobacco user mentioned. Smart Turkey is unique in speaking equally to all who find themselves addicted, regardless of the method used to introduce nicotine into their bloodstream.


I'm John Polito, the 1999 founder of WhyQuit.com and the 2008 author of Freedom from Nicotine - The Journey Home. I'm a cessation educator who studied for two decades under America's most accomplished nicotine cessation facilitator, Joel Spitzer.


I've presented more than a hundred live cessation programs, I'm director of Turkeyville, a 13,000+ member Facebook cold turkey support group, and I've had a number of smoking and nicotine cessation articles published in peer-reviewed journals. But enough about me.


The nicotine industry doesn't want you reading Smart Turkey. Their goal is to keep you hooked and using. Smart Turkey's objective is to aid you in quickly becoming smarter and wiser than nicotine's grip upon your mind and life.


Knowledge is power. Why fight in darkness when we can turn on the lights?


Breathe deep, hug hard, live long,


John R. Polito
Nicotine Cessation Educator
