Juul-Sponsored Study Suggests It Could Help Adult Smokers Cut Back

Description

A study paid for by e-cigarette company Juul, which is partially owned by the tobacco giant behind Marlboro cigarettes, suggests the devices may help adult smokers cut back on smoking. The authors of the paper concluded that smokers who started using the Juul significantly curbed their use of traditional burned cigarettes. While some adults switched completely to vaping, others continued to both vape and smoke — a potentially troubling phenomenon called "dual use." The dual users still appeared to be smoking less, though. An outside researcher raised some red flags about the study, suggesting that the author may have a conflict of interest and calling the journal in which the work appeared "predatory."
