Mother Is Addicted To Pan Parag For Ten Years. What Are Some Products I Can Suggest To Her To Get Rid Of Her Addiction?

Hi, I am 19 years old and my mother has been chewing pan parag for the past 10 years. In the past 5 years she probably has it in her most the majority of the day. I did not even know what pan parag really was or how bad it was until some one I know passed a away from oral cancer. My dad has tried numerous times to get her to stop but she will not. So now I am starting to feel that she is addicted to it. I do not even know where to start to try and help her. What doctor should I consult to see how much the pan parag had effected her already? What are some products I can suggest to her to get rid of her addiction? My mom is 50 years old and I hope it is not too late

i respect ur concern for ur mom. the first thing u need is to consult a dentist or an oncologist for an opinion. after such long time of pan paraag use she may be having altered oral mucosa (a precancerous stage )that needs a checkup.
there are no safe alternate products. however you can mix murabba of khajoor and sugar coated saunf, green cardamom's seeds and use this as an alternate. but remember any thing that constantly irritates mouth can lead to oral cancer. hope ur mom understand ur concern and cooperates.
