inLife Applauds the FDA In Now Regulating the Electronic Cigarette as a Tobacco Product

April 27, 2011 - PRLog -- Irvine, California-inLife, llc, global distributors of the electronic cigarette (e-cig) and one of the founding companies in this new industry, applauds the FDA in now regulating the electronic cigarette as a tobacco product. inLife has been very vocal in its support of the litigation brought by Smoking Everywhere against the FDA that indeed it’s products were tobacco products and not “drug,” “device,” or combination product under the FD&C Act” as argued by the FDA.

On its website Monday the FDA stated “The U.S. Court of Appeals for the D.C. Circuit, in Sottera, Inc. v. Food & Drug Administration, 627 F.3d 891 (D.C. Cir. 2010), recently issued a decision with regard to e-cigarettes and other products “made or derived from tobacco” and the jurisdictional line that should be drawn between “tobacco products” and “drugs,” “devices,” and combination products,  as those terms are defined in the FD&C Act.  The court held that e-cigarettes and other products made or derived from tobacco can be regulated as  “tobacco products” under the Act and are not drugs/devices unless they are marketed for therapeutic purposes. The government has decided not to seek further review of this decision, and FDA will comply with the jurisdictional lines established by Sottera.”

inLife States “Birth of an Industry”
inLife was one of the very first companies to market the e-cig and first brought the e-cig to market in early 2008. inLife’s structure as a network marketing company made inLife one of the fastest growing network marketing companies in U.S. history. Said inLife Founder Craig Youngblood “This is truly the birth of an industry. Since 2008 we have tens of thousands of people who have been using our e-cig and the testimonies I hear are just so heartwarming.  We have obviously been following the litigation closely and are thrilled that the e-cig is now regulated as a tobacco product as we agree that the industry should be overseen by the FDA under the Tobacco Control Act”.  inLife also is the Co-Founding Company of the Tobacco Vapor Electronic Cigarette Association (TVECA) which is the entity established to work with the e-cig industry to provide to the public, the media and legislative bodies solely the Facts, Science and Compliance issues of the industry and work with the FDA in overseeing that e-cig companies are in compliance with all local, state and federal tobacco regulations.
