Question

I'm trying to cut down on smoking and I've heard that vaping and e-cigarettes might be a better option since they don't have tar. I'm curious if they really are a bit less harmful and if it's possible to gradually reduce the number of puffs too. I've noticed there's not much information out there. What do you think about this?
