The intent of ecigarettes is to increase the number of smokers, says a damning new expert report.
BRUSSELS — The American agency in charge of public health, the US Food and Drug Administration , has banned the sale of Juul brand e-cigarettes in the United States. In the opinion of Pierre Bizel, PhD, a member of the Belgian National Coalition Against Tobacco, the intent of these products is above all to increase the number of smokers. There is no scientific evidence that e-cigarettes help eliminate tobacco consumption.
to the publication of 11 studies it had funded to demonstrate that its products helped smokers stop their tobacco consumption. Although all the articles had been peer-reviewed , the legitimacy of the process was questioned by academics.A 2021 study that appeared inrevealed that fewer than half of the clinical trials sponsored by Juul Labs were published correctly.
These e-cigarettes can only serve to create dependency as early as possible and then increase the number of smokers. Like other products currently available, such as Puffs, the objective remains the same: these fluorescent or candy pink disposable e-cigarettes, which produce almost no smoke and are very discreet, have a very high nicotine content and hook the consumer into regular use. It is, after all, a product manufactured by nicotine sellers.
This device can certainly play a role in quitting [smoking], but only in a specific context, with support, as is required for any therapeutic weaning with the help of medication. Otherwise, effectiveness will be very low. Without counseling, without a physician, without behavioral support, relapse is almost certain. The device can be a tool, like many other tools, provided that it is used in a therapeutic context.
