Welcome to the CIG-NO Solution
CIG-NO all-natural Smoking Deterrent Products were created to help the smoker break the nicotine habit clean, or to control the habit with CIG-NO smoking management techniques. All natural CIG-NO works by creating an immediate aversion to tobacco, making the smoker feel as if they have had too much smoke. Available over the counter, CIG-NO does not require a doctor's prescription. CIG-NO contains no nicotine and is not addictive. It is guaranteed safe and effective. CIG-NO is available in spray, caps or drops.

CIG-NO Delivers Fast Relief
CIG-NO sub-lingual spray is designed to be carried in the pocket or purse and may be taken anytime, anywhere, as often as needed. Fast acting, CIG-NO spray quenches the desire to smoke. With CIG-NO the smoker takes control of his smoking habit. Just a few pre-measured sprays under the tongue and relief is on the way.

Cessation and Management
Health experts agree that stopping smoking is the best goal for cigarette smokers. Yet, with smoking prohibited in almost all public circumstances, smokers unable to quit (or not yet willing) find themselves in awkward situations. Where can smokers turn when they cannot smoke in formerly acceptable social situations and when they want to control the level of their smoking? Now, smoker's can find help with natural, safe, non-prescription CIG-NO. CIG-NO delivers fast acting relief to help manage the smoking habit. Smokers can breathe easier with CIG-NO. No more social ostracism! No public harassment!

Ten Years in the Making
Ten years ago a patient asked Dr. Mary Cody, originator of CIG-NO, to "find something for my smoking habit." Those few words launched the CIG-NO revolution. Dr. Cody soon began to experiment with Plantago Major, the active ingredient in CIG-NO. After careful testing, Dr. Cody hit upon just the right formulation that has led to CIG-NO Smoking Deterrent Spray, Caps and Drops. Today's CIG-NO is a potent health tool: a cessation remedy for smokers who want to quit... an everyday management tool for the smokers who want to control their smoking.

The structure of the Plantago Major plant includes a remarkable glycoside of the monoterpene class (iridoid) called Aucubin. This glycoside has been studied and numerous scientific papers have been written about this particular member of the monoterpene family. The general characteristics of the iridoid monoterpene are as follows:
 

The anti-toxic, anti-inflammatory and expectorant characteristics suggest why the plant is useful in lung disorders, and as inferences as to the effect of the Plantago Major on smokers. Exact cause and effect relationships are not yet fully understood. However, the above suggests real reasons for the noted effects on smokers.
