Vaping/E-Cigarettes - Healthy Cornwall

Vaping to Quit Smoking

Switching from smoking to vaping can be a really effective stop smoking tool. Our service has supported many people to successfully go smokefree using vapes.

Vaping has been proven to be less harmful than smoking; it provides the hit of nicotine and habitual hand to mouth movements etc but without the extremely damaging tar and chemicals usually found in cigarettes.

But…

Remember that vaping is not completely harmless. Children and non-smokers should never vape.

The healthiest option is not to smoke or vape. So, if you do use vaping to quit smoking, have a future plan in mind to quit vaping too.
