鈥淢essage applications have scientifically proven to roughly double one鈥檚 odds of quitting smoking, which can help you live 10 years longer and save $50,000,鈥 said Dr. Amelie G. Ramirez, study leader and director of the Institute for Health Promotion Research at 大象传媒. "We developed Quitxt specifically for young adults to help them quit for good."
