Look into the cloudy brand it’s like concentration and plant based and no nicotine

With addiction and overuse, stopping fully is extremely difficult. Similar to alcohol, there are effects if they drop it fully, so normally they would slowly reduce the dosage overtime. To encourage her show you are happy about her reducing the quantity rather than stopping the entire thing (possibly celebrate when she gets clean with something special too).

Try to get her one of the whistle like things, it’s basically a steel tube on a necklace so you can get the sensation of sucking in but only breathe air. It helped me

Also, let her know the first three days are the worst. If she can get past that she can do it. Just think of it one day at a time. I quit cold turkey but it took me a few tries to actually go through with it

I’m know fully knowledgeable with this, but I had my own issues and celebration and support of reducing it did help me with my issues.
