Still smoking?

Paying people supports their will to undertake healthy changes, including this to quit smoking. Watch how smokers succeeded in quitting when paid. It seems that our health insurance providers should think about a monetary incentive for those who still smoke but are willing to change the habit. 

Another solution (or a complimentary solution) could be the application of cytisine, an over-the-counter remedy. Watch this New England Journal of Medicine video to find out about the spectacular effect of cytisine on smokers who want to quit.

GOLDEN RAIN TREE

Based upon this report, cytisine, an alkaloid from golden rain tree (Cytisus Laburnum), is very cheap to produce. In fact, it has been used for more than 50 years in Eastern Europe, where a 25-day (pill) treatment course costs approximately $10! 

I wonder why our health care givers and insurers are not offering this remedy. Probably because it is too cheap and too effective?
