How can E-Cigarettes Help you Give Up Nicotine?

Smoking can be incredibly harmful, leading to all sorts of health problems like cancer and lung diseases. So, why is it so difficult to quit? One of the main reasons is the nicotine in tobacco cigarettes, which is a highly addictive substance. It can feel almost impossible to just stop smoking and this is why vaping has become so popular.

 

E-cigarettes offer a safer way for you to get your nicotine hit and they provide you with an opportunity to give up nicotine for good. Unlike when you’re smoking cigarettes, you can actually control the amount of nicotine in an e-cigarette too, making it easy for you to slowly decrease the amount you’re intaking. If you want to kick your nicotine habit, below is some useful advice to help you give up nicotine for good.

 

Take Some Time to Get Used to Vaping

While vaping is similar to smoking in many ways, it can feel quite different to start with and you may be tempted to go back to tobacco cigarettes. Trying to cut down your nicotine intake before you’re used to vaping will only make things worse too. So, we would highly recommend taking some time after you switch to e-cigarettes to just get used to the vaping experience. Experiment with different e-cigarettes and e-liquids until you find the best combination for you.

Always make sure you have the right level of nicotine in your e-cigarette too as the wrong strength will increase the likelihood of you going back to tobacco to get your nicotine hit. Take a look at our previous blog to help you choose the right nicotine strength for your e-liquid.

 

Reduce the Nicotine Strength Over Time

Giving up nicotine is a journey, one that you should take at your own pace, and not everyone reduces their nicotine intake in the same way. It’s beneficial to be patient when you’re reducing the amount of nicotine in your e-liquid and giving up too much, too soon can result in you going back to tobacco cigarettes and having to start all over again.

To help you stay on track with your e-cigarette, slowly reduce the amount of nicotine you’re adding to your e-liquid over time. There are lots of pre-mixed bottles of e-liquids that can make reducing your nicotine intake straightforward as well as nic shots and nic salts that you can add to e-liquid. Ultimately, there’s no rush and there are several e-liquid flavours to try along the way.

 

Try Mixing Your own E-Liquid

The lowest nicotine level on the market right now is 3mg/ml, which is typically ideal for light smokers or social smokers, and the next pre-mixed solution available is 0mg/ml. Going from 3mg/ml to no nicotine at all can feel like a big step and if it’s too much for you, feel free to mix your own e-liquid to find the perfect strength.

Mixing your own e-liquid allows you to take baby steps when giving up nicotine and you don’t have to jump from one pre-mixed option to the next. You can create a strength that works well for you at different stages in your journey and if you need any help with mixing e-liquid to the right strength for you, our team at LUCKEE is happy to help.

 

Reduce the Amount you Vape

If you are looking for another way to reduce your nicotine consumption slowly, you can try reducing the amount you vape throughout the day. The less e-liquid you inhale, the less nicotine you will be intaking and this is another option to explore when you’re trying to give up nicotine.

 

Some e-cigarettes have puff counters, which will make it easier for you to track your daily usage. You can make it your aim to slowly decrease the number of puffs you have each day, until you no longer find yourself reaching for your vape to get a nicotine hit.
