A recent survey proves otherwise – that vaping is a good option to help smokers butt out once and for all. At the end of 2015, the Consumer Advocates for Smoke-free Alternatives Association performed a study and found that almost 90% of vapers say they quit smoking for good after they started vaping regularly. Only 5% continue to smoke regularly after taking up vaping.
The study also found:
- Almost everyone had attempted to quit smoking prior to vaping regularly
- Only 6% had not previously attempted to quit smoking before using ecigarettes
- Of the 5% who continue to smoke, 34% smoke less than one per day on average, and only 23% smoke more than 5 cigarettes per day, since starting to vape.
According to Chief Scientific Officer at CASAA Carl V Phillips, “51% of those who had not quit smoking entirely credited e-cigarettes with helping them almost quit smoking and another 44% credited e-cigarettes with helping them smoke a lot less. Only 3% indicated they use e-cigarettes as a partial substitute but still smoke almost as much as they used to, with almost none saying they smoke fully as much as they used to. A few (1%) indicated they both reduced their smoking, but do not credit that to e-cigarettes.”
“It is the best-defined population of any survey of e-cigarette users to date,” he adds.
Based on this study, it is clear that ecigarettes are a viable option for people who want to transition away from traditional tobacco smoking. Considering the ineffectiveness of other methods such as pharmaceuticals and counseling, it is definitely worth a try if you are serious about making the switch once and for all.
