NICE found that the Allen Carr's Easyway Live Group Seminars were not only cost-effective but cost-saving when compared to existing treatments and that the evidence proving the effectiveness of the method is comparable to that which exists for 'nicotine e-cigarettes' which maintain the addiction.

Key Points: 
  • NICE found that the Allen Carr's Easyway Live Group Seminars were not only cost-effective but cost-saving when compared to existing treatments and that the evidence proving the effectiveness of the method is comparable to that which exists for 'nicotine e-cigarettes' which maintain the addiction.
  • The Easyway live seminars, which can be taken "in the room" or via Zoom, comprise of a live presentation of the method delivered by a former smoker who used the method to quit themselves.
  • Once that flawed belief system is fully understood, smokers can actually enjoy the process of getting free from smoking.
  • These updated NICE guidelines should encourage health care providers to adopt Allen Carr's Easyway to Stop Smoking Live Group Seminars as an effective option for those quitting smoking."
