Here are some reasons why nicotine vaping can help you quit smoking :
First, when a smoker smokes a cigarette, they perform a physical action of "pulling the cigarette from their hand to their mouth and inhaling the smoke to stimulate the back of their throat." This action is very similar to the action of using a nicotine vape, which is helpful in quitting smoking. Furthermore, nicotine vapes are twice as likely to help smokers quit smoking compared to other smoking cessation devices such as nicotine patches and gum.
Secondly, cigarettes contain harmful substances such as tar and carbon monoxide, but nicotine vapes do not , which greatly reduces the risk of developing cancer, lung disease, heart attacks, strokes, and other illnesses. Both cigarettes and nicotine vapes contain nicotine, which is a relatively harmless substance that has been used as a medicine for many years and is a safe substance. Furthermore, nicotine vapes come in a variety of nicotine strengths, allowing smokers to choose the nicotine vape that best suits them, which increases the success rate of quitting smoking.
In addition, nicotine vapes can be purchased cheaply , at about one-third the price of paper cigarettes, so they can be said to be useful for quitting smoking from an economical perspective as well.
Finally, nicotine vaping has been gaining attention worldwide for its ability to help people quit smoking.
- In the UK, the "Swap to Stop" scheme has been announced (a plan by the UK government to offer smokers e-cigarettes instead of harmful paper cigarettes) in 2023.
- In the UK, local communities are already providing support for quitting smoking, and nicotine vapes are also being used to help people quit smoking.
- More and more Americans are quitting smoking cigarettes and turning to e-cigarettes.
