Study finds E-cigarettes don’t help smokers quit

[NoOneMan]

123. If we can fully determine e-cigs do not effectively help people quit or reduce cigarette consumption

beyond placebo or cold-turkey, then people who are using them to do so (which may be 85% of its user base) should simply save their money and quit the most effective way thats been proven so far (cold-turkey). Its also the cheapest way.

For those who are using them for shits and giggles, then this is irrelevant anyway

But we also need to recognize that the 13.8% of non-users who quit in the study are not the same 10.2% of e-ciggers who quit (under the presumption such users were intending to quit). On a Venn diagram of people who are quitting, some of these circles may not overlap. IOW, perhaps the only way to get to a 100% quit rate among people intending to quit is to entertain and employ many different methods for many different types of people.
