Giving A Speech On Electronic Cigs

[WhiteLabelDon]

Hey everyone I am currently writing a speech for class and my topic is E-Cigs the proper use and health benefits. I was wondering if any of you had any input i could use to drive the point home effectively and if you had any links to a good source about the many benefits they provide. Thanks for the help

Check out CASAA's threads here on ECF -- tons of great information there. They've got your research covered.

Wonderful speech topic, BTW. Inspire that class!

I'd cover the simple explanation of how they work. I'd also mention that the reported tobacco quit rate with ecigs is more than 80% vs the 7% quit rate on nicotine lozenges. I'd mention that the exhaled vapor has been tested to contain almost no nicotine as it is mostly absorbed by the user (New Zealand study from CASAA.org). I'd mention that vapers report rapid loss of desire for cigarettes as they transition to the ecig. It's also cheaper one you settle on the right hardware and e-liquid combination.

Suggestion:
Frame the statistics in terms of the two-year quit mark. For big pharma NRTs, the success rate is only 2%, while cold turkey is something close to 10%. As Dave said, the quit rate for vaping is at or above 80%. There is a study floating around out there which quoted the average of 9 unsuccessful attempts to quit smoking, using big pharma NRTs, before the interviewees ever tried vaping.

There are several studies out there which have explored the health benefits of nicotine--including the prevention of Parkinson's, Altzheimer's and ulcerative colitis. Other prevented maladies exist.

The New Zealand study on Ruyan products showed that less than 2% of the produced nicotine remains in exhaled vapor.

All these documents can be found at the ECF link above, or over at: Medical/Health and Safety - Vapers Forum
