Short Overview on Conventional Smoking vs Electronic Cigarette

NEW YORK - Sept. 19, 2016 - PRLog -- As a former smoker, I can honestly say that in my 14 years of smoking I have tried almost every kind of cigarettes that are available on the market. I still own my last pack of cigarettes and my electronic cigarette, even though I am not tempted to use them anymore.

Ignition

There are many differences between conventional smoking and an electronic cigarette, the first one being that normal cigarettes have to be lit up, when electronic cigarettes use a battery to produce vapors, through the heating of the liquid.

The effects on your body

Standard cigarettes have over 7000 chemicals in them besides nicotine and have many serious causes on the body. Conventional smoking first of all causes yellow teeth and fingers. In the long term, they can cause lung cancer and ten other types of cancer, heart diseases, asthma, reproductive problems to women and men and even diabetes and blindness.

Electronic cigarette smoking is much healthier because of the small number of ingredients:  nicotine, flavor, vegetable glycerin, and propylene glycol.

The smell

Conventional smoking stinks. It releases an awful odor in the air that impregnates in your skin, your hair, your clothes and in your house. This causes discomfort to non-smokers and former smokers. There are only a few flavors available, like menthol and cherry, but the odor still exists.

E-cigs come in so many flavors, that leave a great smell in the air around you, some people are considering it to be even therapeutic. And because they release vapor not smoke, the cloud they produce does not leave a smell on your body and clothes.

Smoking in public

Typical cigarettes are forbidden in almost every public place and indoors. This is uncomfortable for the smokers because they have to go outside and when at work they can only smoke in particular places made for smoking.

Opposed to this, vaping is permitted in almost every public place and even public transportation in some cases, because people are less upset with it.

Financial View

Conventional smoking is a very expensive habit.

In time, individuals who switch to electronic cigarettes actually save money because after you buy the starter pack you only need the liquid, which is cheap and lasts quite a lot.

Environmental effects

Standard cigarettes are made from plants, and hundreds of millions of trees are used every year to produce them. Besides, the smoke they produce is dangerous for the ozone and the cigarette butts are thrown away are harmful to the wildlife and the ecosystems.

E-cigs on the other hand last longer so there is no hazardous waste in the environment, even disposing of them is by recycling.
