US survey shows that electronic cigarettes help quit smoking


Editor's note: electronic cigarette in the end have no effect on smoking cessation, is a very difficult to prove a lot of people concerned about the topic. AOL e-cigarette forum "E-Cigarette Forum" in June-July conducted a questionnaire survey, respondents had a total of over one million people, a majority of users live in the United States. Let's take a look at the results.

According to the survey, 89% said they smoke more than 10 cigarettes a day before smoking electronic cigarettes, but 88% said they now do not smoke traditional cigarettes. This is similar to the results of a study published in the April issue of the International Journal of Environmental Research and Public Health, a study of 19,000 participants from around the world who After the electronic cigarette, about four-fifths already completely no longer smoking traditional cigarettes, and the remaining one-fifth of cigarettes are reduced, from an average of 20 to 4 a day.

It is noteworthy that such a high proportion of smoking cessation refers to traditional cigarettes. Another phenomenon is that the two study participants are electronic fans of love, so the evaluation of electronic cigarettes would have been better. Although there are sampling problems, the two surveys still show a trend: electronic cigarettes help quit smoking.

A variety of electronic cigarettes taste more help to quit smoking

In the electronic cigarette forum survey, two-thirds of smoking cessation users said that smoking non-tobacco tastes e-cigarette is an important factor in their smoking cessation. The same magazine in a previous survey of 4,500 people showed that they are initially smoking tobacco grass flavor of electronic cigarettes, but later converted into other flavors. The impact of a variety of flavors may be that, since that new tastes more attractive than the taste of tobacco, naturally do not want to go back to smoke traditional cigarettes.

The media also reported a more rigorous study, showing that the success rate of smoking with electronic cigarettes is the use of nicotine replacement products such as chewable tablets or patches twice. The study, led by health psychologist Robert West of the University College London, found 5,863 people who wanted to quit smoking the previous year, either with electronic cigarettes, nicotine substitutes, or no products. The study, which was published in Addiction, found that the success rate of smoking cessation among the three groups was 20%, 10.1% and 15.4%, respectively. After adjustment for variables including age, gender, social status, nicotine dependence, West found that smoking e-cigarettes had a 60% greater chance of successfully quitting than the other two groups.

Electronic cigarettes in the world are still in an inconclusive state, especially in the nicotine content of electronic cigarettes are often considered more than the case of traditional cigarettes, the social rebound is very loud; academic research is also no agreement, and some believe that electronic cigarettes Will make the growth of bronchial cells close to the type of cancer cells, but now more stringent research and network questionnaire, have shown the efficacy of electronic cigarette smoking cessation.
