They are battery operated devices that create an inhalable, water based mist instead of smoke. The rechargeable battery powers a heating element called a atomizer. The element uses low heat to turn liquid in the cartridge, which contains propylene glycol, glycerin, food flavoring and ni****ne, into a fog like mist. Research is available that points to switching from ci******es to a smoke free prod
uct will reduce health risks to less than 1% of smoking traditional ci******es. Since those considering e-ci******es are usually seeking to replace to***co ci******es, they are under the assumption that having the most realistic, to***co flavored e-ci******es, will bring the most satisfaction. The truth of it is that after switching to e-ci******es for a few weeks, the vast majority of users discovers that looks ultimately don't matter, performance does. And the best performing e-ci******es don't necessarily look anything like traditional ci******es because they require larger batteries. And the most popular flavors with experienced users are often as far from to***co tasting as one can get. Ni****ne by itself has very low health risks, so switching to e-ci******es can be nearly as good as quitting altogether. The most important thing for those who cannot or will not quit ni****ne to do is to stop the exposure to the harmful chemicals in cigarette smoke and e-ci******es can help them do just that. Nothing is burned, so there are no ashes, no butts to dispose of, no fire hazard, and no blue cloud of second hand smoke. The v***r dissipates quickly and has no lingering odor. Health New Zealand has tested the v***r and found that it is "harmless, inhaled or exhaled." In multiple surveys, over 90% of users report that their health has improved since they completely or even patricianly switched from inhaling smoke to inhaling v***r. The most frequently reported health improvement is in lung function with coughing and wheezing reduced or eliminated. The Etter & Bullen survey found that 99.7% were current daily, occasional or former smokers and 70.2% no longer smoke ci******es. Most served said they use non-to***co flavored liquid, and 51.9% use fruit or candy flavors on a regular basis.
