Exploring Why So Many Smokers Stick To Old Habits

  1. Exploring Why So Many Smokers Stick To Old Habits Over the past decade, the use of ENDS has become a far more popular choice for those who need to get their nicotine fix regularly. While using an e-cigarette, vaping pen or any other kind of electronic device is by no means a healthy choice, it is by far a better option than puffing away on the age-old cigarette or even chewing tobacco. We are also living in an age when cigarette smokers are very much restricted to where they can light up and it is no wonder that they feel like an ostracised community. Legislation regarding cigarette smoke is by far more severe than when it comes to vaping. Also, even though there is still a wide selection of cancer-causing chemicals present in vaping liquids and it is not merely steam that the avid vaper inhales, it is far less harmful than puffing regularly on a cigarette butt. Yet, even though all these facts are becoming much more widely known, there is remains a crowd of committed smokers who refuses to put down the packet and won’t opt for recharging the battery on their device. The reason for this commitment of smokers will only become evident through sufficient and widespread behavior studies and a leading name in this industry is CSUR. Since 1994, this team is involved in researching substance usage and since 2011, their commitment has been towards influencing regulatory requirements according to their findings. Thus, the question remains, why do so many smokers remain committed to lighting up when it is a far more expensive habit with much more health concerns linked to it? For a long time, the major concern has been that ENDS does not provide the same high nicotine quantities that were available in cigarette form. Manufacturers of these devices have however changed this situation and there are now several options available to vapers to be able to get a high-level nicotine surge with every puff without an unpleasant burning throat sensation. They have even made various design changes to ensure that smokers get the same mouth to lung experience of smoking. One large mistake often made in the world of smoking, or maybe the world outside of it is to think that all smokers are ready to quit. This assumption couldn’t be any further from the truth.
