It is well- known that smoking traditional cigarettes causes a number of serious health problems. Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease, including chronic Bronchitis and emphysema, not to mention smoking-induced asthma, and lung cancer are some pretty compelling reasons to quit. With the economy as low as it is, many people really cannot afford to smoke, but addiction is quite a big monster in the closet, so we continue to use dangerous and chemical filled tobacco products. This is where e cigarettes can be quite a boon to those of us who have tried so many other methods to quit.

Electric cigarettes deliver atomized nicotine to the user, without the 4000 contaminants and carcinogens found in traditional cigarettes. You can get the cartridges in strengths that deliver a dose of nicotine comparable to that which you currently use. Once you have gotten yourself over the addiction to the excess chemicals found in traditional cigarettes, you can step down to lower and lower levels of nicotine, until you use no nicotine. Cartridges come in several flavors, from regular cigarette and menthol flavors to coffee and chocolate. You can also get clove, Irish Cream, rum and cola, tequila, strawberry, and a host of other wonderful flavors. The flavored cartridges come with all the strengths of nicotine, and without nicotine. Once you have broken the nicotine addiction, you can continue to use e cigarettes with flavor-only cartridges, so you don’t have to give up that thing you love to do with your hands, or your oral fixation, either. This is one of the best and most successful ways to quit smoking.

E cigarettes don’t produce the extremely high rate of heat experienced with traditional cigarettes. This helps heal the mouth and throat, as well as the lungs and avoids the repeated-injury cycle that contributes so heavily to the formation of cancer cells. Many cancers, such as skin cancers, are partially caused by repeated injury. Tanning, sunburn, and even habitual scratching of the skin can cause cancer due to repeated injury that the body gets no chance to heal. Smoking traditional cigarettes leads to a cycle of repeated injury to the respiratory system, and this contributes to the development of cancerous cells in the mouth, throat, and lungs. E cigarettes do not cause this repeated injury, and they are free of the 4000 chemicals found in traditional cigarettes.

Part of the reason traditional cigarettes are so hard to quit is the chemicals found in them are as addictive, if not more so, than nicotine. Many of these chemicals are used to preserve the tobacco, some are added by cigarette makers, and some are accidental- the pesticides used to keep worms off the tobacco as it grows in the fields. These things are more harmful to your body than plain nicotine. E cigarettes deliver the nicotine your body craves, and as you step down, you still have the coping mechanism of the e cigarette to help you deal with your anxiety. E cigarettes really can save your life, make you healthier, and they are much cheaper than traditional cigarettes.
