Our trainers

All our coaches used to be heavy smokers and are now consistently clean. Learn from them how easy it is to become a non-smoker!

Our seminar character

We all hear this stubborn voice within us. It says: „Smoke a cigarette at last!“, „Cigarettes belong to coffee“ or „Smoking is relaxing!“. That voice comes from Günter. Günter is our inner hog.

Günter has no idea, but he still gives us advice all the same. So it’s better to first explain to Günter the mechanisms by which smoking works. What does nicotine do to us? How does one become a non-smoker – without bad mood swings, dubious pills and substitute drugs? And how do you remain slim?

Günter is our seminar character: Created by Stefan Frädrich and drawn by Timo Wuerz. He illustrates our presentations and numerous books. You can find more about Günter on Günter’s website.

Legacy Tobacco Documents Library

For browsing and researching: Here you will find published original documents of the tobacco industry in the custody of the University of California in San Francisco. On the one hand, the bosses of the big US tobacco companies swore before the US Congress in the nineties that they knew nothing about the connection between nicotine and addiction. On the other hand, internal tobacco industry documents prove that the industry has long been aware of the dreamlike customer loyalty generated by its addictive products and that it has been targeting young people.
