Electronic cigarettes: concrete help to quit smoking, but also risk of new addiction

Electronic cigarettes (EICGs) represent, although in a fairly low percentage, a concrete help for those who wish and decide to quit smoking.

In fact, The New England Journal of Medicine publishes a study conducted in Great Britain 2015 and 2018 on 886 people who wanted to lose tobacco addiction.
