Rixter Posted October 7, 2013 Posted October 7, 2013 Dr. Arnold Levinson, Director of the University of Colorado Health Smoking Cessation Service, says vaping actually can keep people smoking instead of acting as a cessation tool. "If you’re using these devices because you think that they are safer, the evidence suggests that what they are doing is helping you keep smoking," he said. "The e-cigarettes did no better than nicotine patches in making people quit." I call bull****! Tam 1
Tam Posted October 7, 2013 Posted October 7, 2013 I think you're the good looking guy with the white hat and black glasses. Aquatroy 1

Overall I think it was well balanced info, not tilting one way or the other, and that's fair.. Yep I'm the guy vaping with the hat! Havamal 1

Overall I think it was well balanced info, not tilting one way or the other, and that's fair.. Yep I'm the guy vaping with the hat! Which guy in the hat - the first guy in the black hat (younger guy), or the really old guy in the tannish hat vaping? I don't like what Levinson said for two reasons. For one, he said it's helping you KEEP smoking. No, it's not. It's continuing to deliver nicotine into my system, just as snus would, but you don't call that smoking, so don't call this smoking either. Number two, he said that there was no evidence that the e-cigs helped people quit more the other of the other methods. Yes, there are a couple of new studies out, I believe, showing that very thing. As for Chantix or the other drug to kick habit, they can be dangerous....... But still, I can't get over him saying that vaping is helping us KEEP smoking. I haven't picked up an analog since August 14 at about 2 or 3 pm, I do not willingly inhale tobacco smoke, chemical additives, tar and carcinogens every day. How is vaping still doing that?
