Benefits of Electronic Cigarettes

 

 

A new study published in the medical journal Lancet has found
electronic cigarettes may be as effective as nicotine patches
in helping people quit smoking.

 

"E-cigarettes, with or without nicotine, were modestly effective at
helping smokers to quit, with similar achievement of abstinence as
with nicotine patches, and few adverse events," the study found.

The study was conducted in Auckland, New Zealand, between September
2011 and July 2013 by researchers from the University of Auckland, New
Zealand health agencies and Queen Mary University of London.

 The researchers randomly tested 657 smokers. They then tested how many
people had abstained from smoking after six months. The rates were 7.3 %
with nicotine e-cigarettes, 5.8 % with patches, and 4.1% with placebo e-cigarettes.

This "suggests such short-term e-cigarette use is of low risk. However,
longer-term use requires more research," the authors said.

If you haven't tried electronic cigarettes, we encourage you to give them a
try to see if they can improve your smoking experience.

     New models can last up to 20x longer  than traditional e-cigs.
