How ELECTRONIC CIGARETTE IS SAFER ?

It's safer because when one smokes a stick of tobacco cigarette, he or she inhales over 4000+ kinds of chemicals and amongst them 33 kinds of carcinogens (what causes cancer).

In general e-liquids inhaled with an electronic cigarette, only 4 ingredients (that's at least 4000 kinds of chemicals less into your lungs) are usually used and all of them are regarded as common food additives, which means you can easily find them in food & drink products sold in the malls. These 4 ingredients are:

1.) Propylene Glycol

2.) Vegetable Glycerin

3.) Nicotine

4.) Food Grade Flavoring

1.) "Propylene glycol, the current dominating liquid base, has been utilized in asthma inhalers and nebulizers since the 1950s, and because of its water-retaining properties, is the compound of choice for delivering atomized medication. The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) includes propylene glycol on its list of substances Generally Recognized as Safe (GRAS), and it meets the requirements of acceptable compounds within Title 21 of the Code of Federal Regulations."

In fact, Time magazine published an article about a study that was conducted at the University of Chicago Billings Hospital by Dr. Oswald Hope Robertson which suggested that propylene glycol, the main ingredient contained in E-liquid, acts as a "germicidal vapor", sterilizing air and killing germs such as pneumonia, influenza, and streptococci. He says that propylene glycol vapor is "odorless, tasteless, nontoxic, non-irritating, cheap, [and] highly bactericidal. It kills bacteria and viruses suspended in air in a matter of seconds, faster than anti-bacterial sprays.

2.) "Vegetable glycerin is also known as vegetable glycerol. It is a carbohydrate that is usually derived from plant oils. It is used as a sweetener and as an ingredient in a number of cosmetic products.

3.) Nicotine is what provides smokers with the mental relaxation. We know it is addictive. It is also a poison in large quantities. However, it is not a carcinogen and no test results have been able to show it as one after extensive research done by medical experts. In electronic cigarettes, nicotine content is usually regulated in safe amounts. Make sure you buy your e-liquids from a reputable company. All negative points of it aside, here are some benefits to nicotine:

"While nicotine is an addictive substance, it is non-carcinogenic. It does not cause cancer. In fact, some studies have indicated that nicotine actually has some health benefits, such as reducing the risk of Alzheimer's and Parkinson's disease. It is many other chemicals in cigarettes that cause cancer. Besides the nicotine, e-liquid contains ingredients that are considered generally safe for human consumption by the FDA. "

"In 2000, a study performed at Stanford revealed surprising results about nicotine's effects on blood vessels. Contrary to popular opinion, the study showed that nicotine actually boosts the growth of new blood vessels. The discovery may lead to new treatments for diabetes."

4.) Most commonly included in the consumable (food & drinks) products you purchase at the mall.

Traditional tobacco cigarettes produces smoke which deliver harmful side effects, one of the most famous ones being tar residue. Roads are built using tar, so you can imagine what happens when you smoke cigarettes over a long period of time, leaving difficult-to-remove "mud" on your lungs and visible dark stains on your teeth. Besides, inhaling carcinogens means that one would increase his or her possibility in contracting cancer.

Electronic cigarettes on the other hand produce vapor, and by that it means water-based steam that you would get when you heat up a pot of hot soup for example. When there is no smoke, you also don't harm the health of people around you with second-hand smoke. All in all, the benefits of using electronic cigarettes far triumph that of tobacco cigarettes.

cigarettes have all sorts of chemicals in them...and it's smoke. Whereas E cigs just have liquid nicotine and it's just vapor. So you're only getting the nicotine you need to satisfy that craving rather than all sorts of other things

A damn electronic cigarette burned my garage down.

Fruits are described as ripened flower ovaries which produce seeds.

I guess you can eliminate the nicotine in the cigarette. Other than that, it is unhealthy for all of us.

They are safer because they don't produce smoke and smoke can be dangerous for your lungs
