These kind of articles always seem odd to me. I've used an e-cig to stop smoking. Worked myself down from 21mg juice to 3mg, step by step. Now I really only use it when I'm out drinking, to prevent myself from wanting a cigarette (old habits do die hard, after all)
The e-cig helped, but the real motivator is that I wanted to run and play soccer more effectively. Vaping was just a tool that kept me away from cigarettes.
- treve 8y agoWhat's odd about it? That people get hooked to nicotine through another delivery mechanism?
- ce4 8y agoAnd one very nice side effect of vapes that I noticed to be crucial for weaning off more easily: Vaped nicotine feels way less addicting. I think its got something to do with other "active agents" and additives missing compared to cigarettes. Edit: For example, studies have shown cigarette smoke to inhibit MAO in the brain due to some agent besides nicotine, which vaping very probably doesnt. https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC19495/ https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC19495/
