    Need to change..Need to vape

    I tried anything and everything to stop smoking over 30+ years. THE ONLY THING that got me off the stinkies was vaping.

    I had asthmatic bronchitis an average of 2x a winter when I smoked. I've been vaping since Feb. 2014 and HAVE NOT HAD BROHCHITIS  or a cold since then! And I have allergies that used to be horrid, those symptoms are improved as well.

    VAPE!  It works!

    CDC Study Disproves Anti-Vaping Claims

    An October 2015 CDC study sheds light on vaping habits and shows that fears about vaping as a tobacco gateway for non-smokers and minors are unfounded. Less than 4% of "never smokers" have tried electronic cigarettes and fewer still are using the devices daily. The most populous vaping group are current and recent smokers. 55% of recent smokers have tried electronic cigarettes, while 22% of recent former smokers are currently using ecigarettes.

    The national health survey is the first of its kind. Finally an authoritative US government body has compiled evidence that vaping is not popular with non-smokers and is used by a large group of people who have recently quit smoking altogether. 

    The report found that approximately 12% of people had ever tried electronic cigarettes. While anti-vaping groups warn about the dangers of electronic cigarettes, the truth is that adults are turning to ecigs as a harm reduction and a nicotine replacement therapy. It is no coincidence that more than half of those who recently quit smoking are also users of electronic cigarettes. 

    Vapers will not be surprised to hear this news. Anecdotal evidence of the helpful potential for the technology has been known for years. Vapers report success in staying away from combustible tobacco with vape starter kits, mods, and ejuice. Now armed with credible evidence from the CDC, ecig advocates will be able to demonstrate why electronic cigarettes should be exempt from limiting regulation and taxation. 

    The CDC study also shows that vaping is catching on in a big way. If  3.7% of the US population is vaping every day or some days, then that is almost 12 million people. While some officials are still calling for more regulation of the devices, perhaps the recent data will help educate legislators on the utility of this potentially life-saving technology.
