E-Cigarettes Key Addition in 20 year Projection of Reducing 400,000 American Deaths per year to 10,000

Petition to the Food and Drug Administration by the American Association of Public Health Physicians regarding E-Cigarettes

    COLLEYVILLE, TX, March 15, 2010 /Healthcare PR News/ -- In a petition to the Food and Drug Administration by the American Association of Public Health Physicians (AAPHP), has submitted the most comprehensive findings and recommendations regarding the reclassification of E cigarettes as an alternative to conventional tobacco cigarettes.

According to the document, "E-cigarettes would be a major part of the proposed harm reduction initiative, because they appear to satisfy the nicotine addiction and the habituation to the cigarette-handling ritual more effectively than any other product now on the market. For many current smokers, E-cigarettes may be the only low risk nicotine delivery product acceptable as a substitute for conventional cigarettes. Cost and other considerations will limit the attractiveness of E-cigarettes to teens. Enforcement of FDA restrictions on marketing to minors and health education programming should enable us to secure health benefits E-cigarettes can offer without increasing initiation of nicotine use by teens."
