Dr. Keith's clinical results of 3 patients who quit smoking with e-cigs

In January, I wrote here about my clinical experience that ego electronic cigarette, or e-cigarettes as they are known, seemed to help my patients quit smoking, by transitioning them to an alternate form of nicotine delivery.

E-cigs simulate smoking, while not simulating it so well as to become addictive itself. In other words, the electronic cigarette served as a kind of “bridge” that helped people stay away from the real thing, then abandon the electronic cigarettes, too—leaving them smoke-free and nicotine-free.

At that time, patients were reporting these experiences to me, and I was taking note.In the aftermath of that piece on FoxNews, two companies made its electronic cigarettes available to me so that I could offer them to patients who expressed a desire to switch from real cigarettes. Those two cheap E-liquid companies were LOGIC and NICOmate. s1d34REWs

I am reporting now on three patients who received these products and benefited tremendously.I have not been paid anything by either of these companies.

Patient #1 was a man in his 40s who was smoking a pack of cigarettes per day. Using electronic cigarettes dispensed to him during the course of two months, he gradually transitioned from cigarette smoking, to smoking fewer cigarettes and using electronic cigarettes, to using electronic cigarettes only, then to using no electronic cigarettes and being nicotine-free. He remains a nonsmoker.

Patient #2 was a woman in her 60s with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, who was smoking two packs of cigarettes a day, despite her illness. She switched immediately to electronic cigarettes and abandoned those about three weeks later. She remains smoke-free today.

Patient #3 was a woman in her 30s who was overweight and suffering with depression. She used cigarettes (a pack a day) as a mood enhancer, which is common, due to nicotine's influence on one's mood. She transitioned to electronic cigarette atomizer in place of tobacco and remains an electronic cigarette user, but tobacco-free, months later. Her use of electronic cigarettes has dramatically declined.
