What is an electric cigarette? |
An electric cigarette is a tobacco alternative with which you can enjoy smoking, but without all the nasty health problems associated with it. Many people use this as a quit smoking device because like gum or patches, you are only inhaling nicotine, not cancerous smoke.
Times have changed and consumers are more intelligent about smoking and tobacco products. In addition, technology has allowed innovative companies to create new and improved smoking alternatives that are actually safer to use. One of these new products is the electronic cigarette. Thanks to its incredible design, smokers can now enjoy all the benefits of traditional smoking without the hassle or dangers of harsh tobacco.
Many smokers believe nicotine is solely to blame for the health problems caused by tobacco use. While nicotine may be linked to an increase in blood pressure and cardiovascular problems in some smokers, it is not the culprit behind the most dangerous consequences of smoking: cancer and lung disease. Realizing the difference between tobacco and nicotine is a fundamental to answer the question: do electronic cigarettes work?
The short answer is: yes. Electronic cigarettes eliminate tobacco from the smoking equation, giving the smoker a safer cigarette with far fewer health consequences than those caused by traditional cigarettes and cigars. It accomplishes this through a revolutionary system that allows the smoker to enjoy smoking even in restricted areas such as planes, restaurants, and bars.
Electronic Cigarettes deliver nicotine through interchangeable cartridges that are swapped in and out of the cigarette over time. An electric charge turns the contents of the cartridge into an enjoyable vapor that gives the same sensation as cigarette inhalation. The vapor lacks the carcinogenic additives and harmful chemicals found in other cigarettes while still providing the enjoyable benefits of smoking.
In addition, the electronic cigarette is non-flammable and lasts longer than traditional tobacco products. Electronic cigarettes will also save you money compared to the financial burden of traditional cigarettes. It is a safer cigarette that does not ash or cause annoying stains, odors, and discolorations. In more ways than one, the electronic cigarette is the best option for any smoker seeking a safer, cleaner alternative to traditional smoking that still provides an enjoyable experience. If you're asking if electronic cigarettes work, The answer is a resound yes, they do work, and if you're concerned about the risks associated with smoking, they'll work for you. (from Jonathan Drake Do Electronic Cigarettes Work? )
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
An electronic cigarette or "e-cigarette" is a battery-powered device that provides inhaled doses of nicotine by delivering a vaporized liquid nicotine solution. It is an alternative to smoked tobacco products, such as cigarettes, cigars, or pipes. In addition to nicotine delivery, this vapor also provides a flavor and physical sensation similar to that of inhaled tobacco smoke, while no tobacco, smoke, or combustion is actually involved in its operation.
An electronic cigarette usually takes the form of some manner of elongated tube, though many are designed to resemble the outward appearance of real smoking products, like cigarettes, cigars, and pipes. A common design is also the "pen-style", so named for its visual resemblance to a ballpoint pen.

| Some over electrical smoking against conventional smoking: |
| 35% of all humans smoke cigarettes (source world-wide: WHO) despite health clearing-up smoke too many humans (high cigarette consumption), particularly with young people, rise the consumption with cigarettes and alcohol substantial. Laws forbid smoking at public places as for instance to airports, in the airplane on stations and in restaurants in completely Europe. There are ever more smoker prohibited areas and the smokers loses all rights. Not to speak of the tax on tobacco for cigarettes at all. It rises and rises with the electrical cigarette, the electrical cigar and the electrical whistle can smokers without withdrawal symptoms and the nonsmoker become clearly more low-pollution and/or smoke healthier further. With the electrical cigarette, you can smoke cigar, whistle further also in smoker prohibited areas and without social Ausgrenzung at nearly each place. The electrical cigarette, cigar and whistle supply you the smoker exclusive with nicotine and a chosen tobacco flavour of which we via 40 different geschmacksrichtungen have. With the conventional inhalieren you, the smoker, pollutants smoke, as strongly cancer really does not know promoting tar and connections. Do not know like arsenic, Benzapyren, Chrysen, cadmium, formaldehyde or hydrazine and many more which we everything. These materials are not contained with the electrical cigarette, cigar and whistle, since no burn process takes place. When normal smoking of cigarettes and the burn process developing thereby over 4000 materials are set free, which the smoker inhaliert. Of it are 78 pollutants, e.g. tar or arsenic, strongly krebserregend. The products simulate the burn process by short heating up of the sputtered cap liquid before the inhalation. Thus prohibited areas do not apply and the strongly harmful materials are not for no more inhaliert to the smoker no more smoke. Four different nicotine strengths are to you at the disposal: Strongly (18 mg), means (15 mg), easily (11 mg), leicht2 (5mg) and without nicotine (0 mg) beginning nonsmokers reduce step for step the nicotine need of strongly, over means and easy up to without nicotine. A nicotine cap corresponds in approximately the quantity of 1-2 conventional cigarette boxes. Are supplied to the body excluding nicotine and an artificial tobacco flavour! Smoke from normal cigarettes save well-known way substantial health risks. Krebserregende pollutants such as Carbon monoxide, Teer, Blausaeure and many hundred further poison materials destroy slowly and painful the human body. But now you can draw a deep breath. Owing to the new trend product these disadvantages are substantially reduced and/or eliminated. Experience now the healthier feeling to smoke, completely without poison materials (except nicotine which was naturally never healthy), yellow fingers, teeth and stinking ashtrays! For the family and the direct surrounding field no more danger exists to along-smoke passive! The health risk with the electrical cigarette is is substantially lower, than with the consumption of conventional cigarettes. From health view are too recommended the electrical cigarettes, cigars and whistles to the smoke curing. Besides the simulation of smoking should support curing also psychologically better than nicotine chewing rubbers or nicotine plasters. Prohibition of smoking? Definition a prohibition of smoking is a prohibition, which forbids, tobacco or similar substances under glows - to take flames feature or tobacco smoking mission to itself. Also only igniting and a burn-off down of tobacco, without ignition inhaliert actively, are forbidden. (source: Wikipedia) this does not apply with the electrical cigarette, cigar and whistle. For this you find still another appraisal: Appraisal over the pharmacology and toxicology of an electrical cigarette to the smoker curing O. Univ. Univ.-Prof. Dr. Bernd Mayer Institut for pharmaceutical sciences pharmacology and toxicology Karl Franzens university Graz, university University of 2 A-8010 Graz, Austria assigns of: Renatus Derler, Utschgraben 79, A-8600 Oberaich, Austria background in the context of my technical authority I will judge the pharmakologischen and toxicological effects of the product which can be expected in the following one. Free market and juridische aspects extract themselves from my authority and remain unconsidered therefore. Operational principle the substantial components of the "electrical cigarette" are with nicotine solution of soaked filters and in-electrical atomizer for the electricalthermal evaporation of the nicotine solution. Condensed steam is inhaliert over a mouthpiece, whereby the process of smoking is simulated. The technical details and the structure of the electrical cigarette are in detail described in the godfather writing EP1618803. Composition of the nicotine solutions differently concentrated nicotine solutions soaked filters are offered. In the highest dosage the solution 6 evaporated electricalthermally contains % nicotine, in which lowest dosage 0,1 % contain. as additive the solutions of 80 - 90 % propylene glycol (1,2-Propandiol). Beyond that the solutions contain pharmakologisch/toxikologisch negligible quantities (! 5 %) of taste materials and Antioxidantiene. As quantitatively relevant inhalierte contents materials nicotine and propylene glycol are therefore to be rated. Nicotine Nicotine is the main alkaloid in the sheets of the tobacco plant (Nicotina tabacum). Pure nicotine is, a water-soluble liquid colorless at room temperature. The pharmakologische effect of nicotine is based on stimulation nikotinischer acetyl choline receptors in vegetative ganglia (vegetative effects e.g. increase of blood pressure and gastrointestinal Motilitaet), in suprarenal body Mark (promotion of the adrenalin payment) and in the brain (central exciting effect). While the central exciting effect leads to psychological and physical nicotine dependence, the substantial effect injurious to health of nicotine on a narrowing caused by stimulation of sympathetic ganglia of blood vessels and from this resulting arterial hypertonia, Thrombosen and significantly increased risk for myocardial infarction and inschaemischen Insult (impact accumulation) is based. Propylene glycol The bivalent alcohol propylene glycol (1,2-Propandiol) is a colorless liquid innocuous with usual use. The substance is contained in numerous food, Kosmetika, medicaments and tobacco goods as auxiliary material. Canned goods fodder for small animals contains % propylene glycol up to 13. With mentioned applications propylene glycol serves as preservative, solution mediator, emulsifying agent or damp retaining means. As food additive it carries the designation E 1520. Apart from allergischen reactions, which can be released by almost all materials, and easy irritations of the Konjunktiva propylene glycol is toxicological harmless. At the rat the LD50 amounts to 20 - 25g/kg, according to 1.5 - 1.9 kg/75 kg, thus several orders of magnitude over the propylene glycol content of the "electrical cigarette". The additive of propylene glycol is to be rated therefore with present level of knowledge as toxicological irrelevant. Quantitative comparison with conventional cigarettes cigarettes contain nicotine per piece up to 1 mg. With on the average 15 courses per cigarette maximally 0,067 mg nicotine per course are thus inhaliert. Typical substitution preparations contain 2 to 4 mg (chewing rubber) or 25 - 100 mg (depot plaster with continuous release over 16 to 24 hours). The "electrical cigarette" contains per tube (according to 20 cigarettes and/or. to 300 courses) 1,05 - 1,1 g solution, whereby after use a remainder volume of 0.15 - 0,2 g (Renatus Derler, personal report), so that per tube about 0,9 g solution for the inhalation is available, the 0,9 mg (0,1 %) to 54 mg (6 %) nicotine remains contained. With 300 courses per tube thus 180 (6 %) becomes, 120 (4!%), 60 (2 %) and 3 µg (0,1 %) nicotine per course inhaliert. The more highly proportioned solutions (6 - 2 %) therefore contain compared with commercial cigarettes larger and/or comparable nicotine quantities, whereas with consumption of the 0,1 %-igen solution only 1/20 (5 %) of the nicotine quantity contained in cigarettes one inhaliert. The "electrical cigarette" should therefore on the one hand to strong smokers sufficiently nicotine at the disposal put, on the other hand however by gradual reduction of the nicotine content an almost complete curing make possible. Toxicological evaluation of the "electrical cigarette" due to the nicotine content as with all forms of the therapeutic nicotine substitution also with the "electrical cigarette" the toxic effects of nicotine, stated above, must be considered. Like other nicotine of substitution preparations the "electrical cigarette" is contraindicated therefore with young people, pregnant women, nonsmokers and persons with cardiovascular illnesses. It appears essential to arrange this information for the consumer in generally more understandable and easily accessible form (on an enclosing note and/or as text on the packing). Apart from the nicotine content the "electrical cigarette" is to be evaluated however as toxicological harmless. Comparison with the consumption of tobacco goods of 58328 male cancer deaths in Germany in the year 1995 became 50 - 70 % caused by the cigarette smoking, whereby the rate with laryngeal cancer 80 % and with cancer of the lungs 75 - 90 % amounted to (Becker, N. J. Cancer Res. Clin. Oncol. 127, 9-19, 2001). Main cause for the increased cancer risk in addition, for other subsequent sequences of smokers (e.g. bronchitis and Emphyseme) is a difficult-to-understand number of foreign matter, which with the burn by tobacco smoke (developing temperature 850 - 950 °C) and by pyrolysis by zigarettenpapier to be formed. In the gaseous phase of tobacco smoke so far more than 500 chemical compounds were identified, in the particle phase (condensate) more than 4000, 69 carcinogenic materials recognized among them and a multiplicity more toxically, partly highly reactive substances (Marquardt & shepherd, text book of the toxicology, Stuttgart, 2004). In the "electrical cigarette" the nicotine solution electricalthermally one evaporates, so that no active burn takes place. In contrast to the tobacco smoke inhalierte steam contains therefore neither tar, nor condensate or Carbon monoxide. As is the case for other nicotine substitution preparations therefore no increased risk for the illnesses specified above is to be expected. In the comparison to the consumption of tobacco were is substantially lower the health risk of the "electrical cigarette" therefore. From medical view the "electrical cigarette" is seriously recommended to the smoker curing. Comparison with other forms of the nicotine substitution: Compared with other forms of the nicotine substitution the "electrical cigarette" has several substantial advantages. Particularly to emphasize are the better to be dosedness and thus adjustment to the need of the smoker. The rate of the nicotine release from depot preparations (plasters) is not controllable, chewing nicotine chewing rubbers leads frequently to unwanted points the nicotine plasma concentration and appropriate side effects (among other things more violently, very more unpleasantly sip on). The "electrical cigarette" makes however the accurate adjustment for the nicotine dose possible to the current need. A further advantage is the availability of four filters with removing nicotine content. This makes the concerning in the course for curing possible a gradated reduction of the nicotine dose. Finally also the psychological advantage should be mentioned, of which I could convince myself personally. The "electrical cigarette" simulates the process of smoking extremely "life-genuinly": one holds (something oversized) a cigarette in the hand, one can on it pull, it develops a smoke-similar steam and at the point simulates a red light the glow. With consideration of the craze behavior of smokers and their motor needs ("hold something in the hands" and "by something nuckeln"), this simulation of smoking appears as substantial advantage opposite other nicotine substitution preparations. It is to be only feared that flight companions and other surpervisors will be heavy to convince in nonsmoker zones of it that but one does not smoke this only simulated. Summary: As is the case for other nicotine substitution preparations the toxicity of the "electrical cigarette" is limited to the effects of nicotine. Since no burn process takes place, the load with other toxic and above all carcinogenic foreign matter contained in the tobacco smoke is void. The health risk is substantially lower therefore than with the consumption of tobacco goods. Apart from the nicotine content the "electrical cigarette" is to be evaluated as toxicological harmless. In contrast to other forms the "electrical cigarette" permits the accurate adjustment of the nicotine dose to the nicotine substitution to the need. The availability of four filters with removing nicotine content makes a gradated reduction for the nicotine dose possible in the course of curing. The simulation of smoking should support curing also psychologically better than chewing rubbers or plasters. To the smoker curing the "electrical cigarette" can be recommended unreservedly. However the product is like all other forms of the nicotine substitution - with young people, pregnant women, nonsmokers and persons with cardiovascular illnesses contraindicates. About it the consumers in generally more understandable must be informed and easily accessible form. Graz, on 6 March 2006 O. Univ. Univ.-Prof. Dr. Bernd Mayer electrical cigarettes as well as nicotine depot must be kept outside of the range by children and young people under 18 years! Electrical cigarettes, cigars and whistles are not suitable for children, young people, pregnant woman and nonsmoker. Ask your family doctor please before with Allergikern. |
