VAPING: THE SENSORY EXPERIENCE THAT IMPROVES YOUR CHANCES TO QUIT SMOKING
VAPING: THE SENSORY EXPERIENCE THAT IMPROVES YOUR CHANCES TO QUIT SMOKING
Vaping has revealed effective where official therapies failed. What is the secret of its success? A study by researchers Di Piazza, Caponnetto, Askin, Christos, Maglia, Gautam, Roche and Polosa tries to explain the reasons behind its success. The results are on the prestigious international Harm Reduction Journal.

Catania, November 16, 2020. A research conducted by the City University of New York, Cornell University, and CoEHAR (Centre of Excellence for the Acceleration of Harm Reduction) sought to identify the extent and quality of respiratory sensations among those who failed to quit smoking with traditional drugs but succeed with electronic cigarettes. The study focused on the perceptions of ex-smokers on the influence that using e-cig had on their smoking cessation experience.
Among the participants, 84% reported that the sensation of vapor is relevant in quitting smoking, while 91% believe that the perceptions accompanying the use of e-cigarettes contributed to quit.
“The sensory experiences given by electronic cigarettes can help those who are unable to quit smoking with classic anti-smoking drugs” explain Prof. Riccardo Polosa, Founder of CoEHAR. “Smokers may prefer substitute products with characteristics similar to the act of smoking rather than being medicalised” he added.
“It is clear – explains prof. Pasquale Caponnetto from the University of Catania – that the sample represents people satisfied with this change. However, within a process of seeking treatments aimed at detaching people from harmful substances that create addiction, we cannot neglect the impact that sensory experience can have. They are – in fact – capable of modifying rooted cognitive, behavioural, and even emotional relational schemes”.
Research
The study involved a non-random intentional sample of 156 participants recruited in the United States through the Consumer Advocates for Smoke-Free Alternatives Association Facebook. Participants completed an online survey to evaluate the sensory experiences associated with the use of electronic cigarettes.
Results
A percentage of over 91% of vapers who quit report a feeling of pleasure when switching from smoking to vaping, significantly contributed to driving them away from the traditional cigarette.
Using electronic cigarettes, the volunteers stated that they felt the steam in the throat, trachea, lungs and tongue, in association with a reduction in the desire to smoke. There was also a feeling of pleasure in using the electronic cigarette, including the desire to taste, smell, observe the steam and touch the device, confirming the importance of maintaining some ritualistic aspects.
The study also identified how women had a more significant reduction in craving for cigarettes compared to men. Furthermore, those who began smoking at age 13 or younger had greater sensory satisfaction and pleasure than those who started at 16-17.

VAPING NEWS: PAYPAL LOCKING VAPE RETAILER ACCOUNTS
“Vape companies have experienced issues with PayPal in the past, not least a problem that funds in accounts would be frozen for a considerable length of time – causing serious concerns for businesses impacted by COVID-19 restrictions. Now an increasing number of reports are cropping up of companies across Europe and beyond being blocked from using PayPal. It’s being reported in France, “PayPal has decided that the sale of products related to electronic cigarettes was no longer ethical for the company”, and that it is now closing accounts “without notice and definitely”.”

VAPING NEWS: SAN FRANCISCO [Apartment Ban]
“On Thursday, a committee of the city’s Board of Supervisors voted to advance a bill that would ban smoking inside private dwellings located in apartments with three or more units. The San Francisco Examiner reports that the restrictions would apply not just to tobacco products, but also to smoking marijuana and even to vaping. San Francisco currently bans smoking in the enclosed common areas of multi-unit buildings. Yee’s proposal extends this to the interiors of those buildings’ private homes, as well as to balconies and patios. The bill would allow the city’s Department of Public Health to fine offenders up to $1,000″

BILL TARLING — In 2019, California brought in $3.1B in tobacco tax revenue and relies on the revenue stream by ensuring people keep smoking, and don’t switch to harm reduction e-liquid vapor products

VAPING NEWS: CALIFORNIA [Advocacy Groups Request Flavor Ban Repeal]
““Unless California lawmakers want to force hundreds of thousands of vapers back to smoking, they need to reconsider this flavor ban,” said Gregory Conley, president of the American Vaping Association (AVA). “While voting for bans may make legislators feel righteous, the reality is that prohibition is failed public policy and never works for adult consumer products.””
