Can E-Cigarettes Help Smokers Give up Real Cigarettes for Good?

  • Written by News Feature Team


There was once a time when medical professionals were hired to advertise the benefits of smoking, but nowadays, no smokers are under the illusion that their habit is healthy. We know that cigarettes could eventually lead to a life-threatening disease, and smoking can wreak havoc on the health of people close to you.

In fact, some studies estimate that non-smokers living under the same roof as a smoker face a 30 percent higher risk of becoming inflicted with heart disease than those that live in a smoke-free home, with no amount of smoke being safe to inhale. Unfortunately, despite the scary statistics and all we know about the dangers of smoking, quitting doesn’t seem like an option to the heavily addicted.

If you've tried using gum, patches, and going cold turkey without success, you might be interested in giving vaping a go. Some people see e-cigarettes as a trend that will die out inevitably, but many experts agree that vaping is here to stay because it can help people quit tobacco for good at a pace that suits them.

However, some people think that e-cigarettes work to intensify nicotine addictions, and many smokers remain unconvinced that switching can help them abstain from smoking. Below, this article sheds light on some of the benefits of switching to vaping and how to quit tobacco using e-cigarettes.

Stop Smoking by Vaping

While it's true that more research needs to be done on vaping to help us understand its long-term effects, most experts concur that it's more beneficial than smoking in the following ways:

  • Your health

Cigarettes contain over 4,000 chemicals, many of which harm your health as well as those around you. E-cigarettes contain far fewer dangerous chemicals and have no tar or real smoke whatsoever, which is why most people agree that vaping is healthier than smoking.

  • Your Bank Account

It's not just your health that smoking hurts – 20-a-day smokers spend thousands of dollars annually to maintain their habit, which is money that could be spent on a holiday with the family. Fortunately, you could save up to $6,000 annually by switching to e-cigarettes.

  • The Environment

When you consider that cigarette butts are the world's most commonly littered item, smokers emit half as much carbon dioxide annually as half the world's vehicles, and cigarette manufacturers contribute to between two and four percent of the world's deforestation, you can see that switching to vaping is a smart move.

Quit Smoking with E-Cigs

E-cigs allow you to reduce your nicotine intake slowly without having to stop inhaling and exhaling a gas, which is why many people use them as a stepping stop to quit real cigarettes for good. First, you can buy e-liquid which contains nicotine before reducing the strength, and then you can switch to nicotine-free e-liquid when you're ready to lose your addiction.

Provided you purchase an e-cig from a reputable provider, you can feel confident that it will last for years without needing replacing. Take the first step towards abstaining from real-cigarettes by ordering an e-cig today.
