Swedish Study: Nicotine Pouches Help Boost Smoking Cessation Among Women by 200%, Advancing Smoke-Free Goals
A Swedish study finds that since 2016, oral nicotine pouches have helped cut smoking rates, with women quitting nearly 200% more. Sweden’s smoking rate is now 5.3%, close to the smoke-free target of 5%. Experts say nicotine pouches are safe, easy, and effective for quitting.

Key Points:

 

·Key data: Sweden's smoking rate has dropped to 5.3%, close to the "smoke-free country" standard (5%). The rate of women quitting smoking has increased by nearly 200%, the male lung cancer mortality rate is 61% lower than the EU average, and the overall cancer mortality rate is 34% lower. 

 

·Research findings conclude that nicotine pouches are one of the most effective methods for helping smokers (especially women) quit smoking. They are considered safe, socially acceptable, and adaptable to modern lifestyles.

 


 

According to a report from Antara News on June 18, a new study from smoke-free Sweden suggests that oral nicotine pouches are changing the landscape towards Sweden becoming the first smoke-free country in the world - and are driving unprecedented success among women. The report titled "Power in a Pouch", released on June 17 in Strasbourg, shows that since their introduction in 2016, smoke-free pouches have helped accelerate the decline in smoking rates for both men and women, with a nearly 200% increase in female cessation rates. Sweden currently has a smoking rate of 5.3%, just above the 5% smoke-free benchmark. Male lung cancer death rates are 61% lower than the EU average; overall cancer death rates are 34% lower.

 

The co-author of the report, Dr. X, stated:

 

"The evidence is clear: nicotine pouches are the most effective method to help smokers, especially women, quit smoking."
