Read moreFor over a decade, U.S. public health bodies like the Centers for Disease Control (CDC) have often undermined non-pharmaceutical products that could aid in smoking cessation and tobacco harm reduction. This approach is a mistake.

Read moreState-level bans on flavored e-cigarettes may inadvertently lead to an increase in traditional cigarette use among young adults, according to a new study published in the journal Health Economics. Researchers found that while these bans successfully reduce vaping among young adults aged 18-24, they also trigger a concerning substitution effect.
Read moreA large-scale review of 52 human studies has provided further evidence that vaping and other non-combustible nicotine products, such as heated tobacco and nicotine pouches, are significantly gentler on oral health than smoking traditional cigarettes. The review, led by German researchers and published in the prestigious Harm Reduction Journal, systematically compared the oral health outcomes of users of modern nicotine products with both cigarette smokers and individuals who use no nicotine at all. While the findings unequivocally show that quitting nicotine entirely remains the healthiest option for gums and teeth, the evidence strongly supports the role of these smoke-free alternatives in reducing oral harm for adult smokers who switch completely.

Read moreCalifornia’s comprehensive ban on the sale of flavored tobacco products has successfully reduced both e-cigarette and traditional cigarette sales within the state without causing a significant surge in cross-border purchases in neighboring states, according to a new study published in the American Journal of Public Health. This research, conducted by a team from the CDC Foundation, Truth Initiative, and the University of Southern California, is the first known formal evaluation of the law’s impact on sales since its implementation.
