FYI - Link to a bunch of NIH and other private studies showing that reducing nicotine in cigarettes does NOT result in compensatory smoking (i.e., “current smokers will simply smoke more cigarettes to get the same nicotine fix”) but does result in an increase in quit attempts.
Big Tobacco and its backers/analysts will continue to try to deflect by saying that (1) “VLN is not technically feasible”; (2) “VLN will merely result in smokers smoking MORE cigs”; etc. THAT’S NOT WHAT THE SCIENCE SHOWS; CALL THESE PEOPLE OUT. FDA says it will “follow the science”; I hope it does, as it should. Nice also to give people who decide to try smoking the option to smoke but not get addicted, and nice to give smokers a better option of being able to quit.
