“We don’t know anything about the 95 percent of the people who deleted the email,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych],” said Jennifer Unger,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], Ph.D. “Maybe they’re still smoking the same number of cigarettes. Maybe they are using even more nicotine than before because they’re smoking ordinary cigarettes and e-cigarettes.” Unger, with the Institute for Health Promotion and Disease Prevention Research at the University of Southern California, has no affiliation with either study.
“Neither of these two studies provides scientific evidence that e-cigarettes are effective in helping people to quit,” said John Pierce, Ph.D., a professor of cancer prevention at the Moores Cancer Center at the University of California at San Diego. “It’s not clear to me that e-cigarettes aren’t harmful in some way. It’s not clear to the FDA,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], either.” In Sept. 2010,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], the Food and Drug Administration cited five e-cigarette distributors for “unsubstantiated claims and poor manufacturing practices,” according to an agency release.

Department of Health Secretary Mary Selecky testified that kids often start their nicotine addiction with flavored products. According to a state survey, teen use is on the upswing. Megan Sullivan, representing a Thurston County youth anti-violence and substance-abuse agency,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], told lawmakers some tobacco products, including dissolvable tobacco that looks like mints or gum, can be used by teens without parents or teachers knowing.
“Nicotine is as or more addictive than cocaine or heroin,” Sullivan told lawmakers. The products, including mint-like Camel Orbs, were test-marketed in Portland and currently aren’t available in this state, said James Apa, spokesman for the Seattle-King County health department.
