Stop Smoking with the Help of Electric Cigarettes
If you’re trying to quit smoking, a relative new device called an electric cigarette can be of great help.
Also known as smokeless cigarettes and electronic cigarettes, an electric cigarette looks and feels a lot like a “real” cigarette but it produces no smoke and it you can limit considerably how much nicotine you inhale.
An electric cigarette has a battery, an atomize and a reusable cartridge you fill with liquid nicotine. When you inhale on the cigarette, the atomizer heats us, vaporizing the liquid nicotine, producing a smoke-like mist — so you get the same physical effects of a cigarette (holding it as you would a real cigarette, puffing upon it, seeing “smoke” come out), without the nasty effects of the all-too-addictive nicotine. What’s more, an electric cigarette’s nicotine cartridge can come in different nicotine strengths, so that you have control over how much nicotine you take in.
You’re probably wanting to quit smoking so that you’ll stop inhaling the very-addictive nicotine. But are you also tired of being “banished” outdoors in order to receive your fix? Are you tired of the awful stares and comments non-smokers often throw your way when you smoke?
Because an electric cigarette emits no smoke, you can “smoke” it indoors, allowing you to cut back on your nicotine intake without the added stress of trudging outside on cold days to take the few smokes you take as you’re cutting back. (Electric cigarettes do look quite real, though, so you should let your co-workers know ahead of time what you’re doing so they won’t force you to head outside.)
What’s more, you’ll save money. No more will you have to pay hefty sales taxes on cigarette cartons. A carton of cigarettes costs $50 on average today. Electric cigarettes will cost you $20-$30 for the equivalent number of nicotine cartridges.
You’ve nothing to lose and a considerable amount to gain by using electric cigarettes as you aim to cut back or quit smoking.
