DID YOU KNOW
Vaping Flavored E-liquid
Helped Adult Smokers Quit
Flavored vapor products are designed to give adult users a more appealing alternative to cigarette smoking. Studies have shown that the availability of flavors is perhaps the single most important factor for those who successfully quit cigarettes by switching to vaping.
There is no serious evidence to suggest that flavors are more toxic or more dangerous than non-flavored products. Banning or severely limiting the most popular flavors will only hurt those who need vapor products – adult smokers trying to lead a healthier lifestyle by quitting cigarettes.
