Nicotine withdrawal is the main barrier you'll face when trying to quit smoking. Finding out more about it and getting the answers to common questions – such as, “is nicotine bad for you?” and “does nicotine cause cancer?” – is essential for anybody considering switching to vaping to quit smoking.

We’re all fortunate enough to belong to a group of people who don’t take themselves too seriously. At its core,...

2016 has gotten off to a good start when it comes to new vaping products, with a range of excellent box mods hitting the market in January, and the constant influx of new sub-ohm tanks showing no sign of letting up. So, what awesome new gear can you pick up this month? Here’s a quick run-down of some of the best options to hit the market so far this year.

In the US Air Force, e-cigarettes are treated in exactly the same way as tobacco cigarettes. That means if any personnel want to reduce the harm they’re doing to themselves through their nicotine addiction, they aren’t allowed to unless they stand in designated areas with smokers, who are pumping in excess of 7,000 chemicals out into the air. The fact that the e-cigarette users are releasing primarily water vapor doesn't matter in the eyes of the Air Force, and as if this wasn't enough, the anti e-cig efforts they started in 2010 have been redoubled.

As vaping gains popularity, Big Tobacco companies struggle to come up with products that would appeal to younger generations. Let’s...

It’s hard to see why anybody who was aware of e-cigarettes and has done some basic research on them could possibly conclude that they should be banned, but several countries have made that exact decision. You might be wondering why anybody would move to ban something with so much potential to reduce the harm associated with smoking, but the reasons don’t really stand up to much scrutiny. Here’s a list of the countries where e-cigarettes are banned, and a look at the most common reasons.

Do you think e-cigs pose a risk to bystanders? Studies have shown that the vapor of e-cigarettes is less harmful than the air you inhale on a regular basis.

The anti-vaping movement, or more broadly the anti-smoking movement, is driven by ideology, and ideology is downright awful at science.

CDC lies about kids using electronic cigarettes. How can e-cigs be gateways to smoking the real thing?

20 of the most commonly heard anti e-cig arguments rebutted by scientists, researchers, and advocates including Dr. Michael Siegel, Dr. Carl V. Phillips, Dr. Farsalinos, Dr. Ross, Chris Price, James Dunworth, Gregory Conley, Paul Bergen, Kristin Noll-Marsh, and Oliver Kershaw.

Recently, I did a quick recap post listing the best online vaping-related sources of information. There’s a ton of great...

Flavored electronic cigarettes appeal to and are targeted toward adults. Just because we age does not mean we lose interest in the delectables of life. Flavored e-cigs undoubtedly taste better than tar-filled tobacco smoke and are a sincere attempt to keep health conscious smokers from falling off the vapor wagon.

This is another understandable concern from the smoker’s point of view, since many APVs look like you need a freaking degree in engineering to operate them at first glance.

Money speaks louder — and faster — than science. While proponents and opponents of electronic cigarettes wait for studies to bolster their arguments, there’s already solid and compelling evidence that electronic cigarettes provide at least $40 billion in economic benefits to taxpayers and employers as well as to the health and hospitality industries.

The Huffington Post has uploaded a 24-minute video debate in response to Contra Costa County’s decision to ban vaping in no smoking areas. The move also means that any sellers have to obtain a tobacco retailer license in order to sell any e-cigs. This is a controversial move, since e-cigs are not smoking and release nowhere near the level of chemicals you’d find in a tobacco cigarette, but the fierce debate still rages on.

A briefing organized by the New Nicotine Alliance at the sixth Global Forum on Nicotine underlined the importance of flavors for the success of vaping, and called the logic of flavor bans - as currently being proposed across the US - arguing that they could cause more harm than good.
