@cochranecollab , whose reviews feed into national and international health guidelines, has published its largest review yet of vaping as a way to stop smoking. Smokers using nicotine vapes are up to 67% more likely to quit than smokers using patches, gum or lozenges. Up to twice as likely to quit as those going cold turkey.
