More than 5.7 million U.S. adults use other forms of tobacco, such as chew, snuff, dip, hookah, cigars, and others. That’s why Pivot Breathe was created, empowering members to undertake long-lasting behavioral changes that help them break free from all tobacco.
Contrary to popular belief, using tobacco products like dip, chew, hookah, or cigars aren’t safe alternatives to smoking. In fact, using tobacco products negatively impacts a person’s physical and mental health, in addition to draining productivity and overall financial well-being.
Smokeless tobacco as well as cigars and hookah are all associated with diseases of the mouth and can cause oral, esophageal, bladder, lung, and pancreatic cancer, to name a few. Tobacco use in these forms can also increase the risk of death from heart attacks and strokes.
Individuals who have a mood disorder, psychosis, anxiety disorder, developmental disorder, or a substance use disorder are more likely to be addicted to nicotine — found in all tobacco products — than those without these disorders.
For those who use smokeless tobacco, one can of dip per day could cost a person around $1,100 per year. With cigars ranging anywhere from $4 or $5 to $25 and up, and hookah ranging anywhere from $15 to $5,000, the sheer cost of any kind of tobacco use adds up quickly.
Whereas smoking can be counted by the number of cigarettes consumed, other forms of tobacco prove more complex, requiring a unique understanding of individual habits.
Pivot Breathe makes it easier to regain a healthier life — whether only using one form of tobacco or multiple products at once.
