A habitual smoker for more than 30 years, George (not his real name), 57, went from Marlboros to e-cigarettes and then back again. Know more:

A HABITUAL smoker for more than 30 years, George , 57, went from Marlboros to e-cigarettes and then back again. Unsatisfied with the taste and feel of flavored e-cig juices, he was on this seesaw for several years until he came across Blends, a heated tobacco product launched recently in the Philippines.

When tobacco is heated as done with IQOS, 90 to 95 percent of those toxins are not present, according to PMI. Bonds by IQOS is the affordable version of the revolutionary product. It was launched locally in November last year. The device has an average selling price of P990, while its accompanying specially designed tobacco sticks called Blends can be bought for P100 per 20-stick pack.

Filipino summit participant Dr. Lorenzo Mata Jr., president of advocacy group Quit for Good, found the revelations enlightening. He added that evidence presented in the 2022 report of the United Kingdom Office for Health Improvement and Disparities reinforced Bates’s theory. “Citing the 2022 report by the OHID entitled ‘Nicotine Vaping in England: An Evidence Update Including Health Risks and Perceptions,’ Dr. Debbie Robson, a co-author of the OHID annual evidence reviews of e-cigarettes, discussed biomarkers of exposure or medical signs used to measure the effect of a substance on the presence or progress of disease.

Among those who attempted to quit were current smokers with low nicotine addiction and current smokers aged 45 years old. Being older and married and having tertiary education influenced such attempts.
