The difference between smoking and vaping is that smoking delivers nicotine by burning tobacco, which can cause smoking-related illnesses, and vaping can deliver nicotine by heating a liquid in a much less harmful way.

 

 

 

 

Smoking is bad for your health as the toxins produced by burning tobacco cause smoking-related illnesses.

 

The majority of health benefits are seen when you stop smoking completely. Some people find cutting down as a helpful step to quitting, but stopping smoking completely should be the end goal.

 

 

 

 

FACT CHECK

While nicotine is addictive, it doesn’t cause cancer. Understand nicotine and vaping. ‘Some people get addicted to nicotine after smoking just a few cigarettes.’

 

 

 

 

In smoking, the amount of nicotine in cigarettes is generally fixed, and how much you get depends on how you smoke. In vaping, the amount of nicotine depends on the strength of the e-liquid you choose, and how you vape.

 

The healthiest option is not to vape or smoke. Don’t vape if you don’t smoke. Only vape to quit smoking.
