Stopping smoking will dramatically and quickly reduce your risk of lung disease, cardiovascular disease, and stroke. You know this already and this is why Allen Carr says to ignore the harm cigarettes do to every organ in the body and the fact that they cause a litany of diseases including lung cancer, and reduce the overall health of the user.

You are giving up nothing and simultaneously making a tremendously positive change to your health and lifestyle. The only purpose nicotine serves is to keep users addicted. This seems hard to believe but the method explains how smokers are conned into believing the exact opposite. The addiction provides no genuine pleasure. Carr points out giving up cigarettes is essentially giving up nothing.The method suggests that you ignore the poor effects cigarettes have on your health, wealth, lifestyle, and self esteem and instead examine what you think the benefits of smoking are. One of the motivators Carr uses in The Easy Way to Stop Smoking is pointing out the absurdity of cigarette use itself. Understand cigarettes do nothing for you. A full, large scale randomised controlled trial into Allen Carr's Easyway is currently underway (2017). In 2017 a study initiated by the Irish Government/Health Dept showed results that strongly support the use of Allen Carr's Easyway method.While scientific studies on the Carr method are limited, a 2014 study did show smokers using the Allen Carr method were six times more likely to abstain from tobacco after 13 months in comparison to smokers using other methods. The effectiveness of Carr's method has been boasted over the years, and spread largely through word-of-mouth.He was so inundated with clients (who heard about him via word of mouth) that he shared the method in (what turned out to be) a worldwide bestselling book The Easy Way to Stop Smoking. First he helped some friends quit smoking and eventually hosted seminars that enabled those who attended to quit smoking with ease. He was a former 100-a-day chain smoker and successfully quit smoking after 33 years. Allen Carr was a former accountant who created a method for stopping smoking - which he later applied to a host of other addictions and issues.Before you begin the process of quitting using Carr's books, familiarize yourself with who Allen Carr was and the effectiveness of his technique.
