Definitions
- This invention relates to beverages for suppressing the desire to ingest nicotine.
- U.S. Patent 3,901,248 to Lichtneckert, et al. discloses a chew able smoking substitute composition which includes nicotine adsorbed on a cation exchange resin, which is incorporated in a chewing gum base. When chewed, nicotine is released to diminish the urge to smoke.
- U.S. Patent No. 6,211,194 to Westman et al., and U.S. Patent No. 6,268,386 to Thompson disclose beverages which have nicotine dissolved in them, and are intended to provide the consumer with sufficient nicotine to suppress the urge to smoke.
- This invention provides a beverage which has been treated with nicotine, but does not have any discemable nicotine taste or smell when consumed.
- the beverage is prepared by dissolving nicotine in water, and thereafter filtering the mixture to remove the taste and smell of nicotine from the water.
- a nicotine-containing substance is mixed with water, and the mixture is heated to a temperature above about 100°F, and preferably to the boiling point. The mixture is stirred while heating and preferably during boiling. Thereafter, the mixture is cooled, and filtered to eliminate the taste and smell of nicotine from the water.
- the nicotine-containing substance is selected from a group consisting of tobacco alkaloids, which include nicotine and nicotine-like or related pharmacologically active compounds such as nor-nicotine, lobeline and the like, as well as the free-base substance nicotine and all pharmacologically acceptable salts of nicotine, including acid addition salts.
- Nicotine salts are useful and include nicotine hydrogen tartrate and nicotine bitartrate, as well as nicotine hydrochlonde, nicotine dihydrochloride, nicotine sulfate, nicotine citrate, nicotine zinc chloride monohydrate and nicotine salicylate, either alone or in combination.
- “Nicotine” is used herein to include all the foregoing tobacco alkaloids and nicotine salts.
- Nicotine also includes the solid complex of one or more tobacco alkaloid compounds bound to an ion exchange resin, or other polymer release system, particularly a cation exchanger.
- Examples of nicotine ion exchange resins are set forth in U.S. Patent No. 3,901,248 to Lichtneckert et al., referred to above. That patent is incorporated herein in full. Nicotine polacrilex is especially preferred as a source of nicotine. Other sources include cured tobacco leaves and other plants which contains sufficient nicotine to be effective.
- the material When nicotine polacrilex (a powder) is mixed with water, the material does not readily go into solution at room temperature, but instead produces a slurry. Heating and stirring the slurry causes the nicotine polacrilex to go into solution or at least become thoroughly dispersed.
- the solution is cooled, much of the ion exchange resin solidifies and forms a precipitate which settles out of the mixture, which is preferably cooled to about room temperature, and thereafter filtered through activated charcoal to remove so much of the nicotine that it can no longer be detected by taste or smell.
- the cooled solution is passed through a mechanical filter before passing through the charcoal filter.
- the processed water can also be filtered through an ionic filter, such as a semi-permeable membrane used in reverse osmosis processes.
- Nicotine in any suitable form such as tobacco leaves, nicotine alkaloids, or the various other sources of nicotine mentioned above, is mixed with water, and heated, preferably to the boiling point, and stirred vigorously for about one to about thirty minutes. The mixture is allowed to cool, permitting any solids present to settle out. The supernatant liquid is then filtered to reduce the amount of nicotine in the liquid to a level so low that it cannot be detected by taste, odor, or color.
- the nicotine is in the form of nicotine polacrilex in which nicotine is bound to an ion-exchange resin, as described in U.S. Patent No. 3 ,901 ,248 referred to above.
- Nicotine polacrilex in powder form is commercially available from Spectrum Chemical Mfg. Corp. in Gardena, California 90248. Twenty-five grams of nicotine polacrilex (15%, U.S.P.) was mixed in three gallons of water to form a slurry, which was heated to the boiling point (about 210 °F) while stirring for five to ten minutes. The nicotine polacrilex powder appeared to dissolve, or at least liquefy, so that it was uniformly dispersed in the mixture.
- the PES membrane filter is available from PTI Advanced Filtration h e. in Oxnard, California 93030.
- the activated carbon filter is available from ResinTech Inc., in Cherry Hill, New Jersey 08034-1409.
- the filtered product can be consumed as drinking water, and has proved useful in suppressing the urge to smoke cigarettes. For example, many smokers have suppressed the urge to smoke by drinking about 500 ml of the treated water when experiencing the urge to smoke.
- the product of this invention can also be mixed with vitamins, fruit flavoring, cola mix, and natural fruit juices to provide a variety of beverages with the benefit described above.
- the product of this invention may also be used in alleviating the symptoms of attention deficit hyperactive disorder (ADHD), attention deficit disorder (ADD), Toureete's Syndrome, Schizophrenia, Parkinson's Disease, Alzheimer's Disease, anxiety, and depression.
- ADHD attention deficit hyperactive disorder
- ADD attention deficit disorder
- Toureete's Syndrome Schizophrenia
- Parkinson's Disease Alzheimer's Disease
- anxiety anxiety, and depression.
