Why Is The E Cigarette The Better Choice?

When it comes to smoking alternatives or even cessation devices

, the results are very varied. On one hand, you've got smoking alternatives that boast about how you won't "crave a single cigarette ever again", but if you have tried that alternative, then chances are, you'll have witnessed first-hand just how false those claims are. Then on the other hand, you have your cessation devices. There are plenty: patches, gum, and inhalers that are designed to delivery doses of nicotine in various ways; prescription medication, such as Chantix, that prevent certain receptors from "acting up" and thinking that they don't need nicotine.

Then there is the electronic cigarette, the latest, or one of the latest, products marketed as a smoking alternative. There has been quite a bit of controversy surrounding the e cigarette already, especially during the last few months as more and more of the general public have become aware of the 4-year-old product. Some say that this product, which mimics the act of smoking and looks like a real cigarette, will only attract the attention of minors and might cause non-smokers to pick up on the habit. Then there are others who say that the product won't help people to quit, even though it's not a cessation device.

Despite the negative comments from naysayers, what makes the e cigarette the better choice and sets it apart from other smoking alternatives and even cessation products? Again, it is not a product that is designed to help you quit smoking, but there are many users who will gladly declare that the e cigarette has actually helped them to quit smoking. Thanks to the fact that the e cigarette looks pretty much identical to the tobacco cigarette and even acts like it - producing "smoke" and everything - there have been plenty of smokers - ex-smokers now - who have managed to quit their nasty smoking habit since starting on the e cigarette.

The fact that it looks and acts like a cigarette is what sets it apart from the rest. The other smoking alternatives and cessation products fall short in one way or another. Nicotine delivery systems, such as the patch, gum, or inhaler, for example only take care of the cravings for nicotine, but what about the craving for familiarity and comfort? What about the craving for the actual act of smoking? Those nicotine delivery systems can't take care of both of those needs, and neither can other smoking alternatives.

In addition to mimicking the act of smoking, the e cigarette also has the added benefit of cleanliness. It is powered with a rechargeable battery, so using one won't ever require a lighter, matches, or an ashtray. There is no smoke that leaves residue on your furniture, clothing, and walls, and there are no ashes to burn holes into your clothes, furniture, and other fabrics. Plus, the e cigarette saves the user lots of money in the long run because of the liquid solution that is responsible for the smoke-like vapor that emits from the e cigarette.
