What Is Herbal Alternative For Dipping Skoal?

Hello, I have discovered that my teenage son is dipping skoal daily. I got on his case about it and discovered that he went to walmart and bought an herbal replacement. Do you know anything about the herbal substitute? Ny son is about 5'11 and weighs 212lbs, is into physical fitness big time, and goes to dentist every 6 months for cleanings, he's also 17 years old. Thank you for your response in advance. Amy

Ok, there are many herbal replacements that include tobacco. They are not different from the tobacco in skoal. Other substitutes would be cigarettes and vaping. Vaping has the least other chemicals in it and can be dialed down one small milligram at a time and can be the context for quitting.
