Are you a smoker who knows that its bad for your health, but still continue to do it because you just cant give it up? Well if your answer is yes, here is an alternative that gives you the satisfaction of smoking without the ill effects it causes to your health. For smokers world wide, who have found that smoking a cigarette has become very restrictive, due to prohibitive laws about places, not to mention the incriminating looks given by non-smoker, here is a brand new invention called electronic cigarette. It is also called as smokeless cigarette or e-cigarette. While the electronic cigarette has been around for quiet some time, it has gained more popularity in the recent years because of all the laws made about smoking in public places. An Electronic cigarette creates the same effect as a regular cigarette, but it does not contain any tobacco, glue, tar, hydrocarbons or additives that are part of a regular cigarette and it does not emit smoke like that of a regular cigar. Hence it is comparatively healthy option, as it does not have any cancer causing ingredients in it. Also as it does not emit smoke, hence does not cause the health hazards of second hand tobacco smoke for surrounding non-smokers. Thus without tobacco and smoke, an electronic cigar can be 'smoked' legally at anyplace like bars, public places, even airplanes. Lets take a look a how an electronic cigarette works. An e-cigarette looks and feels just like a regular cigarette. When you inhale from an e-cigarette, a "flow censor" gets activated, which releases water vapor containing nicotine, propylene glycol and a fragrance that gives a flavor of tobacco. You can actually feel your lungs getting filled with warm tobacco smoke. Also when you exhale, it releases water vapor instead of smoke, which dissipates quickly, thus does not cause annoyance to the people nearby. Hence this cigarette creates the same visual and sensory effect as that of a regular cigarette, and gives oral-fix of nicotine, which makes its satisfying for a smoker. The e-cigarette has refill cartridges, which come in several flavors and strengths. Apart from the menthol flavor, you can get apple, strawberry and other flavors too. It comes in low, medium or high strengths, which indicates the amount of nicotine released every-time you inhale. This might be useful for someone trying to quit, as you can select the strength, although it is mostly used only as an alternative way of smoking. PS- Smoking is injurious to health. Its best to quit. But while you are at it, you can at least make it relatively healthier.
