EFFECTIVE STOP-SMOKING METHOD<\/h3>\n<h3>National 12-month Clinical Trial finds it twice as effective as other smoking cessation methods available on Health Service<\/h3>\nThe leading quit smoking treatment, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.allencarr.com\/en-us\/easyway-stop-smoking\/live-group-seminars\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Allen Carr\u2019s Easyway to Quit Smoking Seminars<\/a>, which is completely drug free, has today received a major boost as a fully independent Randomised Control Trial (RCT) on behalf of the Irish Government, has found that it is twice as effective as the techniques currently offered by the Irish Health Service (which include nicotine patches and gum). The trial results have been reported in the <a href=\"https:\/\/tobaccocontrol.bmj.com\/content\/early\/2018\/10\/25\/tobaccocontrol-2018-054243?rss=1\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">BMJ\u2019s Tobacco Control Journal on 26 October 2018<\/a>.<br><br><strong>John Dicey, Global CEO of Allen Carr\u2019s Easyway comments:<\/strong>\n\u201cThis is a landmark day as, for the first time, it presents the results of the program\u2019s performance in a robust clinical trial. There is no doubt that being a cognitive (spoken) method doesn\u2019t make it particularly suitable for this kind of clinical trial but even in these circumstances we\u2019re delighted that the method was found to be twice effective as the current treatments available in Ireland. We are also expecting the findings of a London-based RCT to be published soon, which should confirm that Allen Carr\u2019s Easyway method is better than, or at least as good as, the current gold standard One-to-One NHS Quit Smoking Service. This should pave the way for this drug-free, quick &amp; easy method to be made available via the Irish Health Service and the NHS.\u201d\n<h4>The results of the trial show that Allen Carr\u2019s Easyway quit rates were ALWAYS superior to Quit.ie, consistently achieving higher quit rates at 1, 3, 6 and 12 months.<\/h4>\n<strong>Brenda Sweeney, Allen Carr\u2019s Easyway Ireland\u2019s Managing Director said:<\/strong>\n\u201cThese results should give the Irish Health Service Executive (HSE) the confidence to make Allen Carr\u2019s Easyway to Quit Smoking Seminar program available as an exciting alternative to nicotine patches, nicotine gum, and other treatments in Ireland. Working together, we can now provide realistic and more cost-effective opportunity to free Ireland of smoking \u2013 after all, that was the reason that the Irish Government&#8217;s Health Minister pushed so hard for the study to be done.\u201d<br><br><strong>Professor Sofia Ravara, Chair of Group for the influential European Respiratory Society Tobacco Control Committee welcomes the study with enthusiasm saying:<\/strong>\n\u201cI found the study very useful and hope we don\u2019t have to wait another 30 years for Allen Carr to be a validated smoking cessation method.\u201d<br><br>It is believed that this is the first time that such a therapy has been subjected to the rigours of a full RCT. The Allen Carr\u2018s Easyway to Quit Smoking Seminar Program does not rely on any nicotine, nicotine substances, patches or other pharmaceuticals. It challenges the reasons why people smoke, and most people report that they not only quit smoking, but actually lose the desire to smoke.<br><br><strong>John Dicey continues:<\/strong>\n\u201cAdding our program to their menu of services would not only save hundreds and thousands more lives but also save the HSE and the NHS millions of pounds a year. While many health bodies continue to promote the use of NRT, Champix, Zyban and e-cigarettes, it\u2019s surely essential that they also provide an alternative which is 100% safe, drug-free and proven \u2013 especially one that would excite and encourage smokers to seek assistance to quit. Allen Carr\u2019s Easyway organisation is even prepared to offer its famous money back guarantee to the HSE and the NHS. With nicotine patches and gum alone currently costing the NHS in excess of \u00a327million per year and smoking estimated to cost the health service in excess of \u00a32.7 billion a year, we are confident that introducing our method will make a major impact to success rates and cost savings for the health service.&#8221;<br><br><a class=\"button red hvr\" title=\"\u201cStop\" href=\"https:\/\/www.allencarr.com\/en-us\/easyway-stop-smoking\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Read more about How to Quit Smoking with Allen Carr&#8217;s Easyway<\/a><br><br><a class=\"button blue hvr\" title=\"\u201cStop\" href=\"https:\/\/tobaccocontrol.bmj.com\/content\/early\/2018\/10\/25\/tobaccocontrol-2018-054243?rss=1\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Read full BMJ article &#8211; Keogan S., Li, S., &amp; Clancy, L.
