Quitters are the real winners... Quit Tobacco Now!

The saying goes that “quitters never win,” but in the case of tobacco, quitters are the real winners.

Nada India Foundation is trying to help tobacco users quit by providing the support, services, and policies that enable people to quit.

Big Tobacco marketing campaigns by Philip Morris, British American, Japan Tobacco, etc. make it even more challenging for smokers to quit. In our efforts, we urge policymakers to ban all Tobacco Marketing and to adopt policies to discourage tobacco use.

We believe that cigarette ads seek to sell more and foster an acceptance in people's minds that smoking is natural. What the ads are showing is important. Data from the World Health Organization (WHO) show that the countries with a total ban on tobacco advertising report a seven percent drop in the consumption of tobacco products.

The COVID19 pandemic has encouraged millions of tobacco users to say they want to quit. There has never been a better time to quit tobacco, and our commitment to helping tobacco users quit is improving health and saving lives.

Join communities of quitters and #CommitToQuit today! Invest in your well-being and make the right choice to quit. #TobaccoFreeIndia #WNTD2021

Remember, in this case quitters are winners. For Help please give a miss call for help 011-22901701

A Journey That Became Purpose

A Journey That Became Purpose By Sagar Kumar Jha Some journeys don’t just build your career—they shape who you are. My time with the Nada India Foundation has been one of those journeys. I joined as an intern, not fully aware of how deeply this experience would influence me. What began as a learning opportunity soon became a space where I understood the real meaning of public health, community connection, and grassroots impact. Working on community profiling in Haryana taught me that public health is not just about data—it is about listening and understanding people’s realities. Leading a team of 30 peers for a tobacco cessation project further shaped my confidence and sense of responsibility. One of the most meaningful parts of my journey was working closely with minors consuming tobacco and engaging with shopkeepers who sold these products. These interactions helped me understand how awareness gaps, social norms, and accessibility contribute to the problem. This experience la...

Meaningful engagement of Students and Young people to combat the threat posed by the tobacco industry #TobaccoExposed

EXPERT OPINION TOBACCO- A BIGGER KILLER THAN CORONAVIRUS? Jun , 2020, Prof. T K Thoma The day before yesterday [Sunday, 31May], the annual World No Tobacco Day was observed by the World Health Organization [WHO] and member countries. Two significant points may be pointed out. First, this year’s World No Tobacco Day coincides with the coronavirus pandemic and second, the United States, one of the major funders of WHO has quit the UN body. Incidentally, the US is home for some of the largest cigarette manufacturers in the world like Philip Morris and Altria. The theme of this year’s World No Tobacco Day is “Protecting Youth from Industry Manipulation and preventing them from Tobacco and Nicotine Use”. This may be a deviation from the usual generalized and victim-centred themes for the Day since the starting of this annual Day in 1987. The WHO has taken courage to take the bull by the horn by confronting the tobacco industry’s belligerent promotion of campai...
