Are products other than Western moist snuff (ST) or e-cigarettes good substitutes for cigarettes?
Though many products contain nicotine, we emphasize electronic cigarettes and moist snuff, particularly the kind in packets or hard lozenges, because they provide nicotine in a way that can satisfy most smokers, with minimal health risks, and are easy to use. Chewing tobacco and loose moist snuff have the same low health effects, but are harder for most smokers to consider using because of the appearance and the need to spit. There are some other products that are worth mentioning.
