A variety of sources from previous studies led to the development of a survey that would solidify what experts have been saying for years, “e-cigs are much safer than smoking combustible cigarettes”. Nevertheless, if you know of any naysayers who still believe that e-cigs need to be restricted further, perhaps the astounding percentages below may be enough to persuade them otherwise?
The survey
A press release issued on October 29, 2020, by the online publication Real Wire, a global media distribution network, revealed that there’s a huge demand for Logic e-cigs, and other popular brands, all across Europe. Many ex-smokers attribute their success in quitting tobacco cigarettes alongside the help of innovative smoking cessation tools like e-cigs, and the results from the following survey claim that a factor assisting their ability to stop lay with their access to flavored refills.
What was the result?
More than 3,300 e-cigarette users took part in a survey, which was carried out by the Independent European Vape Alliance (IEVA). Over 80 percent of the respondents reported that since they had switched over to e-cig use only, they had been able to completely stop smoking. Additionally, 65 percent of vapers claim to use fruit or sweet e-liquids to curb their cravings.
A good third of participants (roughly 35 percent) claim that tobacco-flavored products, as featured in the Logic e-cigs lineup, are their preferred flavor of choice because they help to ease the longing for their past smoking lifestyle. However, many users claim to enjoy a hint of flavor as a change to their routine, with many claiming that they would have a harder time keeping smoke-free without a variety of options to choose from.
“Our survey confirms previous research that e-cigarette flavors are crucial for adult smokers. A flavor ban must be avoided at all costs, because it would lead many vapers to buy unregulated products on the black market or to start smoking again. And this would endanger the great opportunity that many more smokers will stop smoking with the help of the e-cigarette,” said the president of IEVA, Dustin Dahlmann.
