Smokers who switch to e-cigarettes may adopt other healthy routines

New research from SDRG indicates adult smokers who shift to using e-cigarettes may have more chances to improve health and well-being. The study monitored changes in health and social functioning among smokers at two stages in adulthood, age 30 and again at 39. Approximately one third of smokers shifted to vaping some or all the time by age 39. This group reported better physical health, increased exercise, and more active social engagement.
