Formal dehyde and the E-cigarette

Buy Electronic Cigarettes Online

There is a lot of talk about the availability and usage of the e-cigarette. While it is true that the e-cigarettes don’t contain any tobacco, most of them still contain nicotine. Nicotine is a very addictive drug and is lethal to people smoking 30- 60 mg. An average “light” cigarette contains approximately .5 mg of nicotine a regular cigarette contains. A recent report states that “e-cigarettes aren’t as harmless” as we have been led to believe. It also states, “The vapours can contain almost the same amounts of the carcinogenic compound formaldehyde as in a conventional cigarette.” Companies that sell it make claims that it’s healthier and it will help you break free of real cigarettes and now you can literally “smoke everywhere.” To my knowledge I haven’t seen any scientific studies suggesting that this is a device that actually helps people quit. Since a person is now able to smoke everywhere it’s possible the person will smoke more than they did with a real cigarette thereby increasing their dependence upon the e-cigarette and nicotine. Long-term usage of nicotine in any form causes heart problems by narrowing the arteries increasing the chances of heart attack. Since, the e-cigarette doesn’t contain tobacco the FDA doesn’t oversee its regulation. E-cigarette companies aren’t required to list the ingredients that are in the product. Someone using the e-cigarette doesn’t really know what they are inhaling.

The next time you hear a celebrity on the radio touting the benefits of e-cigarettes remember; nicotine is a highly addictive drug and can cause heart problems. The companies selling e-cigarettes don’t care if you quit they just want your money.
