Are Electronic Cigarettes Safe: Tell Us What You Think


Let’s be honest, when it comes to electronic cigarettes, smokers want to know about safety. Forget all the talk about the taste, the feel, and the cost saving advantages.
If you currently smoke tobacco cigarettes, there is little doubt that you are committed to your current brand.  It has the taste and flavor you want. And if pricing was really an obstacle, you would have quit smoking when the cost for a pack of cigarettes first began to creep above the four dollar mark.
The Facts About Tobacco Every Smoker Ignores
But somewhere in the back of your mind – deep in the recesses no tobacco smoker wants to address – lie all the facts about the harmful effects of tobacco cigarettes.
For the most part, smokers are aware that tobacco cigarettes contain over 5,000 chemicals and account for hundreds of thousands of deaths in the United States each year.1 These facts are backed by tons of research, case studies and real world examples. And just about every smoker knows at least one person whose life has been affected from a lifelong habit of tobacco smoking.
What if there was a smoking alternative?
This of course brings us to back to the topic of electronic cigarettes, their safety, and any possible health effects. A simple internet search will reveal any number of articles and studies on the subject. Some of which are good journalistic pieces based on supported facts and information. Others are unfortunately based on misleading information or even completely incorrect data.
The question becomes, what do you believe? As either an electronic cigarette smoker or tobacco smoker, what is your opinion on electronic cigarettes?
Are you intrigued by their no smoke, no tobacco feature? Or the fact that electronic cigarette brands like blu only have a half dozen ingredients? Or are you still hesitant, wary of making the switch because all the facts and research is not yet in.
Let us know what you think.
