Electronic Cigarette Blog by VIP

We are at the start of the New Year and millions of smokers globally have made their resolution to try and quit smoking. Unfortunately, only a small percentage of people who use smoking cessation aids are successful, according to statistics. For many smokers who can’t quit the habit the electronic cigarette can be the perfect substitute.

Why Quit Tobacco smoking?

Tobacco cigarette smoke is packed with toxic chemicals which affect your health and fitness. Tobacco smoking is the leading cause of lung disease and can lead to premature death. The potential effects of smoking, such as lung cancer, may not appear for up to 20 years, but once contracted often prove fatal. Secondhand or passive smoke from tobacco also affects the health of people around us who don’t smoke. The World Health Organization (WHO) estimates that tobacco caused 100 million deaths in the 20th century.

The cost of tobacco is another big reason to quit. Smoking a branded pack of 20 cigarettes each day will cost you around £2300 a year. We estimate that if you are an average 20 a day smoker you can save £2000 a year by switching to the electronic cigarette. See our Price Comparison Chart for more details.

Quitting is the best option, but if you can’t or don’t want to quit smoking there is an alternative.

Electronic Cigarette Inhaler

The electronic cigarette is a nicotine inhaler or personal vaporizer which contains nicotine in liquid form. When the e cigarette user draws from the device the nicotine liquid turns to vapor and is inhaled without the tar, carbon monoxide and passive smoke.

Safety?

Boston University School of Public Health (BUSPH) researcher concludes that electronic cigarettes are much safer than real cigarettes.

“The report reviewed 16 laboratory studies that identified the components in electronic cigarette liquid and vapor. The authors found that carcinogen levels in electronic cigarettes are up to 1,000 times lower than in tobacco cigarettes.” Read the full article here.
