The efficacy of advertising can be observed in its ability to shape perceptions and influence behaviors, leading to an uptick in e-cigarette usage among both young adults and teenagers. Prominent advertisements often glorify vaping as a trendy lifestyle choice, portraying it as a safer alternative to traditional smoking. This imagery has a powerful effect on the youth, shaping their beliefs and attitudes towards nicotine consumption. The strategic placement of these ads on social media platforms, websites frequented by younger populations, and even video games has further facilitated this process. As exposure increases, so does curiosity and, gradually, the normalization of e-cigarette use.

La plupart des fumeurs arrêtent de fumer sans aide. Pour d’autres, participer au Mois sans tabac peut être une motivation supplémentaire, sachant aussi qu’arrêter de fumer pendant 30 jours multiplie par cinq les chances d’y parvenir définitivement. Quoi qu’il en soit, sachez aussi qu’il y a 70 % de chances supplémentaires de réussir votre sevrage grâce à l’accompagnement d’un professionnel de santé.

Les professionnels du vapotage dénoncent l’article 23 du budget qui prévoyait à l’origine l’interdiction de la vente en ligne, une nouvelle taxation des e-liquides, un monopole de distribution confié aux buralistes, et l’assimilation de la vape au tabac. Le texte a été largement remanié à l’Assemblée nationale puis au Sénat. Mais les professionnels, qui se voient comme une filière utile pour la lutte contre le tabagisme, redoutent un retour de ces mesures en commission mixte paritaire.

Le Baromètre 2024 de Santé publique France dresse un constat sans appel : le vapotage poursuit sa progression chez les adultes français. Dans un communiqué daté du 11 décembre, le Comité national contre le tabagisme (CNCT) interroge sur les véritables bénéfices pour la santé de ces produits et dénonce la politique toujours plus agressive des lobbys de la vape.

The vape world has redefined the way many use nicotine and look for smoking alternatives. The shift began with more recent designs of the e-cigarette in the early 2000s. Early devices copied cigarettes. Newer models focus on battery life, flavor delivery, and safety. This guide will cover device types, market data, health findings, rules, and practical tips for you.

In the study, a group of nearly 20 participants attended two lab sessions where they smoked both a traditional cigarette and a pod-based e-cigarette. To measure the effects of the vaping and smoking, the research team measured the rate at which participants' blood vessels dilated back to their normal size. Results showed delays in that process for both electronic and traditional cigarette use."Blood vessel constriction can have major impacts on one's health in the long term," Ben Taleb said. "Studies link a delayed reaction and dilation to future negative cardiovascular events like strokes, high blood pressure and heart attacks."

Existing regulations have not managed to reduce the rising rates of youth vaping in Aotearoa New Zealand. Both the latest NZ Health Survey and Snapshot Y10 survey reported high levels of daily vaping among young people aged 18 to 24 (23%) and 14 to 15 (10% overall, but more than 20% among rangatahi Māori). Other studies and reports from school principals confirm we need urgent action to address youth vaping.But what measures should policymakers implement? To answer this question, we need to consider how vape marketing makes these products widely available, appealing, addictive and affordable.

The substance is a naturally occurring plant-based alkaloid that selectively binds to nicotinic receptors in the brain. In turn, this can help alleviate nicotine cravings and reduce withdrawal symptoms, among smokers of combustible cigarettes as well as e-cigarettes (vaping).Cytisinicline has been used as a smoking cessation product for decades in some Central and Eastern European countries. It was approved by the British Medicines and Healthcare products Regulatory Agency in March 2019, though only available commercially in the United Kingdom since January 2024. Cytisinicline hasn’t yet been approved by the European Medicines Agency.

Vapes containing nicotine may increase the risk of heart failure, according to a new study, adding on to previous research that found vaping may increase the risk of heart disease, worsen blood pressure and heart rate, and cause several lung-related health issues.

Vaping is different than smoking cigarettes, since it involves heating a liquid in a small device like a vape or e-cigarette that is then inhaled in the lungs. Smoking cigarettes, on the other hand, involves burning tobacco.So is vaping safer and less harmful than smoking tobacco? Regular tobacco cigarettes contain 7,000 chemicals, many of which are harmful and toxic to the body. Although the exact chemicals that are in vaping are not completely known at this time, most experts agree that vaping exposes you to less chemicals than are found in traditional cigarettes.

"L'exécution du décret (...) est suspendue en tant qu'il interdit la fabrication, la production et l'exportation des produits à usage oral contenant de la nicotine", écrit le Conseil, selon lequel la commercialisation de ces produits, également concernée par ce décret suspendu, est déjà interdite par d'autres textes. Ce décret, pris par le gouvernement début septembre, a pour objectif de bannir les sachets, billes et gommes de nicotine. Il avait été salué par les associations antitabac pour lesquelles ces produits rencontrent un succès dangereux chez les adolescents.

A major ICMR-led meta-analysis shows e-cigarette users face significantly higher heart attack and stroke risks compared to non-users, especially among former smokers who switched from cigarettes.

Young men are behind the growing popularity of nicotine pouches in Great Britain, a study suggests. Around 7.5% of 16 to 24-year-old-men are using the small sachets that fit under the top lip, compared with 1.9% use among young women and 1% among adults overall. Most pouch users - estimated to be around half a million people - also smoke or vape, and a growing number are using them to give up smoking, University College London researchers found. They say research is needed to determine whether the nicotine-filled pouches could help people quit cigarettes, which contain harmful tobacco and other chemicals.

There can be some confusion about vapes (sometimes called e-cigarettes or e-cigs). This is not surprising, because there is lots of misleading information out there. Here are some of the most common myths about vaping, and the facts based on scientific evidence and data.

Compared to smoking traditional cigarettes, the harm associated with ENDS use may be underestimated due to the reduced ability to control vaping behavior, ease of ENDS access, fewer vaping area restrictions, and better taste. Currently, the available evidence suggests that ENDS may be a safer alternative to traditional tobacco products. Though most oral symptoms experienced by ENDS users are relatively mild and temporary compared to traditional cigarettes, the dangers of ENDS still exist. However, further research with longer follow-up periods is required to establish the long-term safety of ENDS.

Among lifetime tobacco users, higher levels of parental education were associated with co-use of cannabis and e-cigarettes. Racial/ethnic-specific patterns of e-cigarette and cannabis co-use depends on adolescents’ prior experience with tobacco. The higher rates of use and co-use of e-cigarettes and cannabis among prior tobacco users suggest that targeted interventions are needed for this group. Identified socio-demographic groups at higher risk of co-use of e-cigarettes and cannabis need to be further studied.

Moves by regulators to limit the nicotine content of cigarettes would encourage people to buy full-nicotine cigarettes from illegal sources, according to a new study by researchers at Johns Hopkins University. But the availability of affordable vape products, the paper also suggests, would curb that migration to the illicit market.

The moment that festival fans have been waiting for is almost finally here, with Glastonbury Festival finally kicking off in less than two weeks. More than 200,000 attendees will flock to the festival to see the likes of the Arctic Monkeys, Lizzo and Elton John. However, festivalgoers will be advised not to take disposable e-cigarettes this year, as part of Glastonbury's efforts to 'reduce, reuse and recycle' plastics. The festival has updated its packing guidelines on the website, which now say 'not to bring' disposable vapes.

Imperial’s response follows the call by the Office for Health Improvement and Disparities (OHID) for evidence to “identify opportunities to reduce the number of children (people aged under 18) accessing and using vape products, while ensuring they are still easily available as a quit aid for adult smokers.”

New Zealand will ban disposable vapes in a radical crackdown on its own kid e-cig epidemic. Child-friendly flavours, such as 'cotton candy' and 'strawberry jelly donut', will also be forbidden in favour of duller titles. The drastic changes — set to be phased in from August — follow an unprecedented law preventing kids born after 2009 from ever being able to buy cigarettes. New Zealand's Health Minister Dr Ayesha Verrall said: 'We want vapes as far from the minds and reach of children and young people as possible.'
