Understanding Smoking Cessation: E-Cigarettes and Chantix
Description
In this episode, we dive into the complex narrative of electronic cigarettes and their role in smoking cessation. Join Josh and Adam as they review research showing e-cigarettes as safer than traditional cigarettes in terms of chemical exposure while also examining the risks for non-smokers.
We present evidence that nicotine e-cigarettes may outperform traditional nicotine replacement therapies like patches and gums. Supported by sources such as the American Journal of Public Health and Cochrane, we compare e-cigarettes with Chantix (varenicline) for smoking cessation. We highlight clinical outcomes and the under-researched long-term side effects of e-cigarettes.
