A few important questions answered here, without having to access the main menu

Safe or Safer? Briefly,nothing is absolutely Safe, but as the products continually evolve they become Safer. NRT products such as patches,gums,sprays,inhalers have a risk of substantially less than 1% of the harm of Smoking.Snus approximately 1%, E-Cigarettes less than 5%, Heat not Burn approximately 10%. These estimations become ever more refined as increasing numbers of research studies are published.

Quit Aid The most used method of Quitting is by 'Cold Turkey' ie unaided, but this has the greatest failure rate.It is very difficult to attribute a precise figure towards the popular quit methods such as NRT, Varenicline(various trade names), Allen Carr, hypnotherapy,Snus etc, as the usual medical standard of proof the Randomised Control Trial doesn't really cover certain options like e-cigarettes adequately. However a recent RCT demonstrated that e-cigarettes were twice as effective as NRT for Smoking cessation

Health Improvements Virtually everyone experiences profound improvement after quitting Smoking eg breathing far easier,cardio benefits
