subject: E-cigarettes Are Going Mainstream [print this page] By now you have probably already heard of the E-Cigarette. It has attracted a lot of controversy with one side singing their praises (a side that consists primarily of satisfied customers) and another side consisting of detractors who have not done much research into it at all. There have been news stories, congressional hearings, and all sorts of coverage about them. So, as previously said, you have probably heard of them.
You also probably know, then, that they are on the verge of being mainstream items. After all, the majority of smokers out there are looking for some form of alternative to smoking. I mean, if you were a smoker, and still wanted to smoke, but did not want to inhale all of the tar and smoke (which is the majority of the additives that negatively affect the health of a smoker) that comes with it, why would you not take the alternative that does exactly that? Makes sense, right? Here are some things that you should know about the E-Cigarette and why it is making its way into the mainstream.
E-Cigarettes are going mainstream mainly because, as previously mentioned, there are nowhere near as many health risks as there are with regular cigarettes. They do not have the tar, or smoke, or anything else that can work its way into your lungs. But what about the smoke, right? Well, there is no smoke to speak of. There is a vapor called E-liquid, which delivers a small amount of nicotine into your system. Basically, you feed your nicotine addiction, but you do not shorten your life span. So, you get the sensation of smoking without letting actual smoke into your system. You know what else this means? It means no stinky cigarette smoke smell, which is most likely why most of your non-smoking friends will not hang out with you anymore.
Another great thing about them is that there is almost no chance of polluting the environment, so you are being eco-friendly, which is always a good thing. There also is no mess from using an ash tray. It is basically a win win situation for your social life, your lungs, and your friends. So now that you are more in the know about E-Cigarettes, what do you think? Do you still want to put up with those nasty smelling, messy regular cigarettes, or do you want to make a change that can actually be pretty beneficial?
