Are There Any Electronic Cigarette Health Risks? - Health

Good day and welcome to our weekly consumer reports review. This week's "contestant" is the Electronic Cigarette. We will do an in-depth review of its pros and cons and how it works, as well as how it will affect your health. Electronic Cigarettes have been introduced quite some time ago by innovative chinese, but only recently has it really been the subject of lots of controversy. It's possible that earlier models of e-cigarettes that were not perfected really were dangerous as you can burn yourself on the element that heats up in order to vaporize the glycerin containing the nicotine product. Nowadays the atomisation chamber is hidden from view and there is no risk in burning yourself unless you purposely take off the protective mouthpiece. To further add to the e-cigarette's safety and health record: the FDA has recently approved and legalized e-cigarettes for sale in the united states, however they can't be sold to minors as it was argued that for a child smoking e-cig arettes can lead him to smoke tobacco cigarettes. However e-cigs are mostly advertised as alternatives to smoking or even ways to help cut down on nicotine thus eventually quitting smoking altogether. Yes, there are different nicotine cartridges available for your ecigarette, ranging from High to Medium to Low nicotine content. There even exist zero nicotine cartridges that one can smoke simply for the flavor, be it mint, peach, tobacco flavors etc. Now in terms of e-cigarette health risks, there simply don't seem to be any. Afterall, e-cigs are now FDA approved. Most e-cigarette nicotine cartridges are comprised of the following ingredients: Vanillin (0%-2%), Tobacco flavor (10%-14%), Dimethylpyrazine (0%-2%), Piperonal (0%-2%), Linalool (10%-14%), Vanilla Extract (13%-20%), Nicotine from tobacco leaf (0%-1%), Propylene Glycol or Glycerin (50%-60%). In other words the e-cigarette nicotine cartridge is mostly propylene glycol with some flavouring and nicotine content. Propyl ene Glycol is labelled as a safe food additive by the FDA. From this stems the idea that e-cigarettes are safe for your health, at least when compared to tobacco cigs. So if you're going to smoke, you might as well smoke electronic cigarettes instead of tobacco. Even though most electronic cigarettes are made in China, they are approved for sale in nearly all countries worldwide. Some e-cigarettes are now even manufactured in the USA. To introduce e-cigarettes to the North American and Europpean markets, many companies are offering electronic cigarette free trials, usually for a couple of weeks, to give smokers a chance to try out the e-cigarette and see if it's for them. A recent hollywood movie The Tourist, starring Johnny Depp, is the first movie to feature the e-cigarette. Depp is smoking the ecig throughout his whole performance. Talk about hollywood marketing.Written by Alexa Van KlempFor more information on e-cigarettes please visit the Electronic Cigarette Free Trial Review website at /
