As all of us know, smoking is bad for health and may cause lung cancer and other diseases in a long run
. Due to this reason, there are lots of advertisements and campaigns which are held by certain organizations to encourage people to stop smoking. But, the question is; how efficient is the campaigns? Do people really stop smoking?
To overcome this problem, the innovation of electronic cigarette starts to evolve. It is a battery-operated device which enables the user to inhale the flavored vapor produced by the heating element and contains a certain amount of nicotine. It provides the satisfaction to most of the smokers because the aroma is just like inhaling a cigarettes smoke. The good point here is the smoker does not really inhale the harmful smoke produced from the combustion process of a real tobacco.
An electronic cigarette consists of 3 main parts such as the mouthpiece, battery and heating compartment. The mouthpiece is also known as cartridge which is replaceable from time to time. The cartridge is dampened with nicotine as the flavor when inhaling the vapor. This device usually uses lithium-ion (rechargeable) battery to activate the heating element. The last part is the heating element which vaporizes the nicotine on the cartridge when activated by certain sensors.
Most of the electronic cigarettes do not have a complicated system and they should be designed as compact as possible to have a similar design or shape like a real cigarette. Although most of the companies selling these devices claim that there are no harmful side effects and much safer than the normal tobacco, it is recommended that you should make a thorough research regarding the device and make sure that you only buy it from a reputable company. Dont try to get it if the price is far below the market price for this product.
There are lots of debates regarding this innovation whether or not it is really safer as compared to smoking in the conventional way. All in all, it is very much depends on an individuals perception to judge which is better as everyone knows 100% stop smoking is quite difficult.
