A new study could potentially hinder the push to destroy the vaping industry. In a joint study with researchers from the United States and United Kingdom, the study reveals that switching to vaping considerably cuts health risks when compared to those that continue to smoke traditional cigarettes.

The Study

“You had researchers from both countries and the CDC involved in the planning and execution of the study for the first time,” Tony Abboud, executive director of the Vapor Technology Association, told The Daily Caller News Foundation. “One of the biggest findings of the study, was that if people switch from tobacco cigarettes to vaping products , their health is substantially improved than if they continued smoking.”

This study, which has been posted in the Annals of Internal Medicine, shows a massive reduction in the levels of toxic chemicals and carcinogens linked to smoking-related illnesses in the patients who switched to vaping for at least six months. This easily proves that e-cigs improve health benefits to those who do switch.

E-Cigs Improve Health

Researchers from the University College London, Roswell Park Cancer Institute in New York, and the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention all participated in this study. The evidence discredits the recent assertions from the Surgeon General and CDC, which claimed that vaping is harmful to health and a potential gateway drug to a smoking addiction, when actually e-cigs improve health.

“In the UK they’ve looked at all the science that exists and say vapor products are 95 percent safer than combustible cigarettes, and argue for that reason our government needs to be promoting them, not restricting them,” said Abboud. “That mindset, which is based upon science, is held across the board in England.”

The US Shortcomings

While the US is still trying to disband the use of e-cigarettes , the UK is promoting them as a measure of public safety. Physicians are beginning to agree that using e-cigarettes eliminate most of the harms that come from smoking traditional tobacco.

Abboud went on to state, “Here in the U.S. we have a scientific community, or at least government agencies, that have pretended as if they don’t have enough information yet, despite one of the most esteemed medical bodies in the world, the Royal College of Physicians, coming to the conclusion they did. Those two things cannot be true.”

Conclusion

The truth is that there is more than enough evidence showing that the use of e-cigarettes is substantially safer than traditional tobacco. Unfortunately for the US, the government agencies, such as the FDA, are fighting this information with the help of Big Tobacco Big Pharma , and the media . These agencies are losing a great amount of money each year, so they want to destroy the industry that is advancing this cause. Thousands of people each day are switching to vaping, taking money out of Big Tobacco’s pockets. People are using vaping as a cessation method, which reduces sales of anti-smoking drugs, like Chantix , which takes money away from Big Pharma. Once these agencies stop worrying about their money and start thinking in terms of public health, the fight against vaping will come to a stand-still. We need more information like this to be shown to prove that e-cigs improve health, not harm it.

This needs to happen sooner than later! We need your help to convince these agencies that vaping has saved your life! Make your voices heard and aid in the fight to save vaping!
