According to Ms. Finberg, the flavors available in e-cigarette cartridges attract minors to e-cigarettes.

That means if any personnel want to reduce the harm they’re doing to themselves through their nicotine addiction, they aren’t allowed to unless they stand in designated areas with smokers, who are pumping in excess of 7,000 chemicals out into the air.

One in three ex-smokers has dreams involving smoking. But what does it mean to smoke in your dreams? Can we satisfy our cravings from smoking in our dreams?

Let’s get it out there. Some e-cigs look like robot penises. This fact leads many smokers to declare flatly that e-cigs are too bulky, too much to carry around and too awkward to ever serve as a replacement for the carcinogen-laden alternative.

When you’re first learning about e-cigarettes, the fine vapor of their health benefits often gets blocked from view by the thick, pungent smoke of misleading claims, scaremongering headlines and downright fallacies. Wading through the smog and coming out with any reliable, definitive facts about e-cigarettes is unfortunately difficult, but the information is out there. To help you understand the harm reduction value of e-cigarettes, this article addresses the common and all-too-familiar hoaxes regarding e-cigarettes.

For many smokers hoping to kick their tobacco habit, quitting smoking means using an over-the-counter nicotine replacement product or making the switch to e-cigs, but it’s not immediately clear which is the best option. Nicotine gums and patches offer the nicotine you crave in a non-smoky form, and initially may appear safer than e-cigarettes for several reasons.
