While many people agree that vaping is a good alternative to smoking, there is still much debate in the media due to the few chemicals that are in e-cigarettes, such as nicotine.
The truth about nicotine
It’s worth noting that nicotine is not the chemical that makes traditional cigarettes dangerous. It’s a chemical that makes them addictive, but the danger posed by cigarette smoking comes from the addition of all the other nasty carcinogenic chemicals they add in the cigarette production process.
Ironically, the amount of nicotine in an e-cigarette is up to the smoker, whereas users have few options with traditional cigarettes. The amount of nicotine in an e-liquid can vary, giving smokers greater flexibility especially if using e-cigs as part of a quit smoking strategy.
Simulate the experience of smoking without the risk
Inhaling a puff of e-cigarette vapor can have the same sensation as a traditional tobacco cigarette without any smoke from tobacco, making e-cigarettes a great potential alternative for a cigarette smoker trying to make a change.
Save some money
The cost of traditional cigarettes per pack has sky-rocketed in recent years forcing smokers to look for cheaper alternatives. Although costs vary with the vaping method used, in general, e-cigarettes can be much more cost effective. Depending on your vaping style, you’ll be able to find a device that fits your needs. Some are disposable and thrown away after one use while others have rechargeable batteries and can be re-filled with e-liquids.
Vaping gives smokers an alternative that can look and feels like a traditional cigarette without the exposure to many of the additional chemicals in traditional tobacco products.
