"While we have heard from former smokers who say e-cigarettes helped them quit, we have to ignore their statements because we just can't bring ourselves to admit that something which looks like a cigarette could possibly be a good thing and could have positive benefits like helping a smoker get off of tobacco cigarettes."

F. None of the above.

Not only does this column provide bad medical advice, but the advice itself is based on misinformation. For example, the article claims that e-cigarettes have been shown to be a gateway to smoking: "Most dangerous of all is the appeal to children. Vapor is less irritating than smoke, and comes in flavors such as bubble gum, cola and chocolate. Some children who would not try regular cigarettes will be tempted by e-cigarettes. As soon as they start, they will become addicted to nicotine and suffer from the health effects and expense of that addiction. Others who start with e-cigarettes will go on to use real cigarettes, and face the deadly diseases they cause."

• The truth is that the study we relied upon did not measure the time course of electronic cigarette and cigarette use. Thus, it could not determine whether the kids who were using both cigarettes and electronic cigarettes had initiated with smoking or with electronic cigarettes.
