Dr. Keith Ablow Conducts Study for Electronic Cigarette Effectiveness
Renowned Psychiatrist to Study the Benefits of Smoking Alternative
LIVINGSTON, N.J., May 9, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- LOGIC Technology, makers of premium electronic cigarettes, today announced that Keith Ablow, MD will be conducting an expanded clinical study of LOGIC e-cigarettes in his practice to determine their effects on reducing or eliminating tobacco product usage. Previously, Dr. Ablow reported that three individuals had ceased smoking when given e-cigarettes as part of a smoking cessation regimen.
Sponsored by LOGIC, Dr. Ablow's study will monitor and track patients' experiences using electronic cigarettes to determine the genre's effectiveness for transitioning smokers from traditional cigarettes to a tobacco-free, smokeless, battery operated nicotine delivery device.
The study, to be conducted over a 12 week period, will offer patients who use traditional cigarettes the option to try electronic cigarettes. Dr. Ablow will provide participating patients with electronic cigarettes and measure their use of this technology and tobacco products over the course of the 12 weeks. Simulating the feeling and taste of a real cigarette, LOGIC provides a sensory experience that satisfies a smoker's addictive cravings for the nicotine, tobacco flavor, hand to mouth motion and vapor release, while avoiding 4,000 toxins that are in cigarettes. Unlike other nicotine delivery devices, an e-cigarette can assuage the desire for a traditional cigarette and deliver a realistic smoking experience.
"We are thrilled to work with distinguished psychiatrist Dr. Keith Ablow to conduct this study," said Eli Alelov, CEO of LOGIC Technology. "Minimal statistical data exists about electronic cigarettes and their effectiveness in supporting a switch from traditional cigarettes and we think it is imperative to educate the public on the benefits of this product. We think Dr. Ablow's findings will support the rapidly growing industry and prove what we have been saying for years, that LOGIC is a smarter alternative helping to convert American smokers to better choices."
"I reached out to LOGIC about this informal, expanded series of clinical case studies because I cannot understand why universities and the government are not aggressively exploring the use of electronic cigarettes to help smokers stop using tobacco," said Keith Ablow, MD. "I am a supporter of electronic cigarettes in aiding patients to make smarter choices with their smoking habits."
LOGIC will provide a findings update as the study moves forward. LOGIC e-cigarettes are available in disposable and rechargeable versions and can be purchased at convenience stores nationwide as well as on the company's web site. For more information about LOGIC Technology, visit www.LogicEcig.com.
