Electronic Cigarettes

Electronic Cigarette or e-Cigarette is an electronic device that is aimed at mimicking the real cigarettes. Their design is very identical to the real cigarettes so that the people using it have the same feeling of using a real one. It consists of nicotine liquid that is vaporized by heating. And for the heating purpose battery is used. The smoker inhales the smoke produced by heating the nicotine vapor.

Some e-cigarettes have nicotine while other claim non-nicotine cartridges. The world thought of them as an alternative, but some research claims that it is not a valid alternative for tobacco powered electronic cigarette. Many are promoting these cigarettes as the device that would help them quit smoking, but no scientific evidence exists. Manufacturers are trying to lure customers by providing various flavors. The lack of available research in this field is also a huge loss for customers, but many scientists suggest potential health risks related to using these types of cigars.

The way they work

The look and feel of this cigarette is very similar to the tobacco one. The front end of the cigarette glows when you inhale and when you exhale the smoke similar to tobacco cigarette is produced. It has a battery that acts as the heating element and converts the nicotine present in the nicotine cartridge into vapor. Some of them are rechargeable while others are disposable, the cartridge can also be replaced. The new term has been derived from using the e-cigarette it is called “vaping” not smoking.

Side Effects and Safety

Like every other cigar containing tobacco. Electronic cigarette having nicotine is addictive. Some no extraordinary difference is created when one uses it instead of tobacco cigar. Addiction remains. Even though large researchers are not available, but studies suggest that if you stop vaping you may have different feeling including depression, anxiousness, irritation, loneliness. It is very dangerous to heart and asthma patient. Those who have heart and lung diseases shouldn’t even think about opting  cigar this may be fatal to your health. It has been found that there are worse effects on your arteries and nervous system due to continuous use of this cigar.

The e-cigars aren’t ideal replacement at all, what more harmful in the regular cigar is tobacco and smoke. The e-cigars don’t burn but using them instead of regular cigar won’t make much difference, same this just little improvised with the concept. The long term use and its side effects may not be known clearly, but it isn’t a trustworthy replacement.

Good and Bad

This cigar has been a major point of debate for many health experts and medical groups. Manufacturers are claiming it to be harmless and efficient alternative, and medical experts are not praising them. The uncertainty remains about how safe the e-cigar is and what effects can it cause on human health.

The unavailability of needed data makes it unclear to put forward a solid verdict about the all new e-cigar. The people who oppose it claim that nicotine present in the electronic cigarette is addictive, and it would act as “gateway drug” which would lead many non-smokers to use tobacco. But others are looking at the device from the smoker’s point of view, allowing them to find a better alternative of tobacco cigar.
