No more addiction!!!

In our society there are still millions of people who smoke. Even when many want to quick and improve their health, they are unable to because of their addiction. That is why in Connecticut researchers are finding a drug that will combat the awful addiction of nicotine and give those who want to stop smoking, a chance that is realistic. Researchers have found that nicotine attaches to certain brain receptor sites which send the body the cravings. What researchers have found is a drug called Varenicline that will attach to the same site and cause the body not to have the cravings and desire to smoke. If this can happen millions of people can improve their health and be a lot happier.
