Under the <\/span><span>Biden administration<\/span><span>, the FDA denied over a million marketing applications for candy- or fruit-flavored vaping products, even though smokers rely on these products to kick their cigarette habits. The FDA under President Trump has not yet lived up to the administration\u2019s deregulatory ambitions.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>Read more <a href=\"https:\/\/hometransferguide.com\/?p=263\">Thugs Who Demolished DC Chipotle In Viral \u2018Teen Takeover\u2019 Still On The Run<\/a><\/p>\n<p><span>But that\u2019s quickly changing. The FDA <\/span><span>recently<\/span><span> approved marketing authorization for Los Angeles-based Glas electronic cigarettes in mango, blueberry, and two menthol varieties. Additionally, the FDA <\/span><span>laudably announced<\/span><span> it is deprioritizing enforcement against harm reduction products \u201cif a product has a pending application that has been accepted and filed, or when a manufacturer has a pending and accepted Supplemental PMTA [Premarket Tobacco Application], and if FDA has determined the application includes data necessary to evaluate whether the product is appropriate for the protection of public health in the case of non-tobacco flavored \u2026 products.\u201d <strong>(RELATED: Reynolds Launches $3,200,000,000 Investment In America-Made Smokeless Nicotine)<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>This news, which <\/span><span>follows the encouraging renewal<\/span><span> of modified risk granted orders to reduced-risk heat-not-burn devices, is a large leap forward for the millions of smokers desperately seeking out less harmful choices. Hopefully, <\/span><span>departing Commissioner Makary\u2019s<\/span><span> successor continues this progress and gives smokers more options to quit cigarettes. The FDA must continue to approve new products and end its failed prohibitionary policies.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>For most of the roughly <\/span><span>30 million cigarette smokers in the U.S.<\/span><span>, quitting is no easy feat. Kicking the deadly habit is not easy or fun. Even relatively effective quit-smoking aids such as nicotine patches have a 6-month success rate of\u00a0<\/span><span>less than 20 percent<\/span><span>. Author Earl Chinnici struggled mightily to end his 28-year addiction, lamenting, \u201cI had not been at all fair to myself, or to anyone or anything near me, by keeping my cigarettes right there next to me or in my shirt pocket throughout the years.\u201d In his book <\/span><i><span>Maybe You Should Move Those Away From You<\/span><\/i><span>, he offers an important insight into ending addiction: \u201cit can help significantly to have some powerful weapons in your arsenal.

According to a 2018 National Academies of Sciences\u00a0<\/span><span>report<\/span><span>, \u201cThere is conclusive evidence that completely substituting e-cigarettes for combustible cigarettes reduces users\u2019 exposure to numerous toxicants and carcinogens present in combustible tobacco cigarettes.\u201d These products are better for smoker\u2019s families too because there is \u201cevidence that second\u2010\u200bhand exposure to nicotine and particulates is lower from e-cigarettes compared with combustible tobacco cigarettes.\u201d\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><!-- \/10519169\/dailycaller_incontent_2 --> <\/p>\n<p><span>Studies have\u00a0<\/span><span>repeatedly<\/span><span>found<\/span><span> that e-cigarettes are far more effective than traditional therapies in getting smokers to quit, all while being about <\/span><span>95 percent safer<\/span><span>\u00a0than cigarettes. Flavors are a critical part of the switching process. Flavored vapes\u2014which, in fact, entice adults\u2014are especially effective in weaning smokers off cigarettes. It\u2019s little wonder why flavor bans, which make the experience of quitting cigarettes far less enjoyable and attainable, <\/span><span>increase<\/span><span> cigarette smoking.<strong> (RELATED: Authorities Recover Stolen Cargo Of Tucker Carlson\u2019s ALP In Massive Seizure)<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<p>Read more <a href=\"https:\/\/hometransferguide.com\/?p=261\">British Media Argues Afghan Men Have No Choice But To Sell Off Daughters<\/a><\/p>\n<p><span>Until now, FDA bureaucrats opted to stick their heads in the sand rather than listen to the latest evidence.
