Heated herbal product delivers nicotine with fewer toxins
Researchers tested the iSENZIA™ heated herbal system as a potential safer alternative for smokers, delivering nicotine with fewer harmful chemicals than cigarettes. The study found that the system produced aerosols with significantly lower levels of harmful compounds compared to cigarette smoke, supporting reduced exposure and potential harm reduction. Clinical findings showed lower nicotine delivery and satisfaction compared to cigarettes, suggesting lower abuse liability. However, long-term health impact and switching effectiveness require further study. Study limitations include a small sample size and lack of long-term outcomes.
