Studies compiling scientific and smoking cessation data

[waveho]

Still only on the Prnewswire, but this news is very interesting so far. I hope the results are as promised and the story gets major media coverage. Here's the link and a part of the story:

UK Electronic Cigarette Company Set To Prove Ecigarettes Are Safe.
According to a recent medical study in South Africa, 45% of smokers using the electronic cigarette were able to quit within two months of switching to the innovative new product, compared to 5% of Nicorette Gum users.
Of course, what counts is whether smokers can cease smoking for the long term. However, the results remain extremely encouraging.

The survey results found:
• 6% of smokers quit within two weeks
• 45% of smokers quit within two months
• more than half reported improved energy levels and an improvement in their appearance.
All of the doctors involved in the study felt that the electronic cigarette could be an aid to overcoming all physical and psychological effects of smoking, with one doctor adding that:
"an e-cigarette is the most effective treatment method on the market for quitting tobacco smoking".
