Abstract: A device which utilizes buoyancy and draws all or a majority of the energy required to make it function from gravity and is able to convert more of that energy into usable force than is required to operate the device

Abstract: A method for producing a consumable nicotine-alternative composition includes measuring a quantity of a cigarette nicotine-alternative alkaloid and/or a larger quantity of lobeline. The quantities of cigarette nicotine-alternative alkaloid and/or lobeline are diluted into one or more successive intermediate solutions, a last of which constitutes a final solution. The final solution is apportioned so that each portion contains a precise quantity of cigarette nicotine-alternative alkaloid and/or lobeline appropriate for consumption in a single use by a single person. Each portion is introduced into a separate single-serving dispenser.

Abstract: A method of producing a consumable nicotine composition includes blending a measured quantity of nicotine into a solution. A nicotine concentration is achieved in the solution of between 0.0001% and 0.1% and the solution apportioned so that each portion contains a precise quantity of nicotine appropriate for consumption in a single use by a single person. Each portion is introduced into a respective single-serving beverage. Another method of producing a consumable nicotine composition also includes blending a measured quantity of nicotine into a solution and achieving a nicotine concentration in the solution of between 0.0001% and 0.1%. The solution is likewise apportioned so that each portion contains a precise quantity of nicotine appropriate for consumption in a single use by a single person. Each portion is introduced into a respective beverage and each beverage packaged into a separate single-use dispenser.

Abstract: A prepackaged liquid Composition that is intended for oral consumption and includes the ingredient, 5-Hydroxytryptophan (5-HTP) in an amount of between 4.0% and 0.0001% of the final consumable composition.

Abstract: A method of producing a composition having a precise amount of nicotine appropriate for a single use by a single individual involves diluting a large quantity of nicotine into one or more successive intermediate solutions, a last of which constitutes a final solution. The final solution is then apportioned, so that each portion contains a precise quantity of nicotine appropriate for consumption in a single use by a single person. The portions may be introduced into beverages and consumed as a cigarette substitute by individuals attempting to quit smoking. This method of nicotine dilution enables accurate and inexpensive production of nicotine compositions having single-serving amounts of nicotine without requiring expensive, precision equipment for measurements.

Abstract: A liquid composition including a Nicotine or alkaloid having the same direction of activity, content of between 0.0001% and 0.1% that can be consumed orally.
