Smoking cessation device and method

Abstract

A smoking cessation device that utilizes a structured, flexible tube similar in size and shape to a standard cigarette. The tube is impregnated with flavored oils for the enjoyment of the user. The method of producing the smoking cessation device is performed by mixing the flavored oil with a high-proof alcohol and spraying the mixture onto the tube. After the alcohol evaporates, the tube retains the flavored oils, providing a pleasant taste to the user. A user can use the smoking cessation device by biting and or chewing on the end of it to restrict air flow making it feel similar to a cigarette.

What is claimed is: 
     
         1 . A method for producing a smoking cessation device, comprising:
 providing an absorbable tube;   providing a flavored oil;   providing a high-proof alcohol;   providing a spraying device;   mixing the flavored oil with the high-proof alcohol in the spraying device;   spraying the flavored oil and the high-proof alcohol mixture from the spraying device onto the absorbable tube; and   allowing the high-proof alcohol to evaporate from the absorbable tube.   
     
     
         2 . The method for producing a smoking cessation device of  claim 1 , wherein:
 the absorbable tube is the size and shape of a standard cigarette.   
     
     
         3 . The method for producing a smoking cessation device of  claim 1 , wherein:
 the absorbable tube is comprised of biodegradable materials.   
     
     
         4 . The method for producing a smoking cessation device of  claim 1 , wherein:
 the flavored oil is safe for the intended use of consumption.   
     
     
         5 . The method for producing a smoking cessation device of  claim 1 , wherein:
 the high-proof alcohol is at least 180 proof.   
     
     
         6 . A method for treating cigarette oral fixation, comprising:
 providing an absorbable tube;   providing a flavored oil;   providing a high-proof alcohol;   providing a spraying device;   mixing the flavored oil with the high-proof alcohol in the spraying device;   spraying the flavored oil and the high-proof alcohol mixture from the spraying device onto the absorbable tube;   allowing the high-proof alcohol to evaporate from the absorbable tube;   placing one end of the absorbable tube in the user's mouth; and   biting or chewing on one end of the absorbable tube to restrict airflow through the absorbable tube.   
     
     
         7 . The method for treating cigarette oral fixation of  claim 6 , wherein:
 the absorbable tube is the size and shape of a standard cigarette.   
     
     
         8 . The method for treating cigarette oral fixation of  claim 6 , wherein:
 the absorbable tube is comprised of biodegradable materials.   
     
     
         9 . The method for treating cigarette oral fixation of  claim 6 , wherein:
 the flavored oil is safe for the intended use of consumption.   
     
     
         10 . The method for treating cigarette oral fixation of  claim 6 , wherein:
 the high-proof alcohol is at least 180 proof.   
     
     
         11 . A smoking cessation device, comprising:
 a flavored oil;   an absorbable tube wherein:
 the absorbable tube is the size and shape of a standard cigarette; and 
 the absorbable tube contains the flavored oil. 
   
     
     
         12 . The smoking cessation device of  claim 11 , wherein:
 the absorbable tube is comprised of biodegradable materials.   
     
     
         13 . The smoking cessation device of  claim 11 , wherein:
 the flavored oil is safe for the intended use of consumption.
