I have a friend who has been using an e-cigarette for 10+ years. He doesn’t seem any less addicted to smoking as back when he was using old-fashioned cigarettes.

I understand e-cigarettes are supposed to help you quit… but has anyone actually had success with them? Or, is it more like trading one vice for another?

      Your “knowledge and skillsets” mean absolutely nothing if you are not prepared to share your sources. “Trust me” does not cut it.

      I’m a medical statistician and part of my job is teaching medics how to navigate the literature. You’ll be delighted to know that there’s always a massive chunk on Doll & Hill and the methods which arose from the fight to prove that smoking was killing people. Do not try to patronise me. If you cannot be bothered to write up why you think something is true, do not claim that it is true.
