5,000 Experts Spent 3 Years Verifying the Risks of Vaping—and Confirmed It Is 95% Less Harmful Than

PHE has employed approximately 5,000 scientists, researchers, and public health professionals, making the agency's research findings highly credible and recognized by the general public.

Recently, PHE dropped a bombshell regarding "smoking harm reduction," releasing a shocking new research video that clearly illustrates the difference in the amount of toxic chemicals and tar inhaled by smokers each month compared to non-smokers and e-cigarette users.

The inception of electronic cigarettes was aimed at reducing harm.

The UK PHE is known for its progressive stance on harm reduction, and it recently released an experimental video documenting the destructive harm caused by traditional tobacco products to the human body and how switching to "safer smoking products" can avoid or reduce this impact.

The release of this video is part of PHE's "health harm reduction campaign," led by health experts Dr. Lion Shahab and Dr. Rosemary Leonard, encouraging smokers to try quitting since January of last year. PHE has also conducted multiple experiments to demonstrate the health impact differences between new tobacco products and traditional tobacco products, confirming that "e-cigarettes are 95% less harmful than traditional cigarettes and reduce about 7,000 carcinogens," as evidenced by independent research reports.

Research results present a stark contrast.

The study illustrates this point by replicating the effects of "inhaling cigarette smoke," "e-cigarette vapor," and "normal air" in three glass domes filled with cotton. Each dome is connected to a diaphragm pump, providing continuous suction of the three different gases, while the cotton balls represent the lungs.

The inhalation amounts of traditional cigarettes and e-cigarettes are approximately the average usage amount per month for users.

At the end of the experiment, the cotton ball in the glass dome testing cigarettes was brown, the inner wall of the dome was brown, and the tube leading to the pump was covered in sticky tar. In contrast, the glass dome receiving e-cigarette vapor showed no significant changes, except for some water vapor, and the cotton ball was only slightly colored. As for the dome receiving natural air, there was no change except for water vapor on the glass dome.

PHE's Director of Health Improvement, Professor John Newton, stated:

This experiment clearly demonstrates the stark contrast between the impacts of new tobacco products and traditional cigarettes.

"If thousands of smokers who could quit with the help of e-cigarettes delay due to incorrect safety concerns, it would be tragic."

"We need to assure smokers that switching to e-cigarettes is less harmful than using traditional cigarettes. This video indeed highlights the destructive harm caused by each cigarette to the human body and helps people see that "using e-cigarettes may only carry a fraction of the risk."

Still, there are misunderstandings about e-cigarettes.

Sadly, even with PHE's strong advocacy for the "harm reduction effects of smoking alternatives," market research still finds that 44% of traditional cigarette users in the UK "incorrectly believe that using traditional cigarettes is as harmful as using e-cigarettes or are unaware that e-cigarettes carry lower health risks.

PHE recognizes that at the start of the new year, at least 500,000 traditional smokers will attempt to quit, hoping this video will encourage them to use different quitting plans to increase their chances of success in quitting.

Overall, this video released by PHE serves as a strong boost for the global electronic cigarette industry. Although similar studies abound online, they are often funded by industry groups or related interests, rather than being released by a national health agency, thus giving PHE's research video greater credibility and endorsement of the harm reduction efficacy of products.

Perhaps the impact of the video on the UK population "wanting to quit smoking" ultimately depends on the "mainstream media," but through PHE's ongoing research on e-cigarettes and the gradually opening new tobacco markets worldwide, we can predict that the traditional tobacco market will experience a rapid decline in the coming years.

It is believed that through the tireless efforts of industry colleagues to continuously promote "positive information," smoking alternatives will inevitably become "mainstream products that benefit traditional smokers," thus building a bridge for smokers to embrace a "healthy life."
