We all know smoking is bad for us and those around us, but yet we keep doing it because the addiction is so hard to kick. For most of us, it's become a habit that we don't think we can live without. What if there was a way to kick the addiction that has never been easier? Well, now there is! The electronic cigarette is the new easy way to kick the addiction to nicotine that keeps so many people smoking.
What is the electronic cigarette you ask, it's a battery operated cigarette that gives you the feeling of smoking a regular cigarette without all the harmful toxins that are contained in regular cigarette smoke. The electronic cigarette resembles a regular cigarette and has a chamber that turns pure liquid nicotine into a puff of vapor giving you the sense of smoking a regular cigarette without all the chemicals that are present in regular cigarette smoke. The only chemical you are exposed to with the electronic cigarette is nicotine unlike regular cigarettes, which contain thousands of chemicals and tar.
What are the advantages of the electronic cigarette? A few of the many advantages are that the makers claim that it will not cause lung cancer, it can be used in public places like bars, restaurants and airplanes, and is cheaper than regular cigarettes because of the simple fact it is rechargeable and can be used again and again, and passive smoking is impossible with the electronic cigarette.
Most smokers don't have the desire to quit smoking even though they realize the harmful effects smoking has on them, and now with the electronic cigarette you don't have to give up the pleasure of smoking just the harmful chemicals you put in your body with regular cigarette smoking. Check out the electronic cigarette and see that it is exactly what you need to enjoy your habit without harming your body.

Open Your Eyes To The Dangers Of Tobacco
Everyone who smokes regular cigarettes knows the dangers of tobacco and readily acknowledges they should quit for their health. Did you know that over 33% of all adults in the world smoke? While it may not seem like a lot in the scheme of things, this percentage contributes to more than half of most cancer cases diagnosed each year. The dangers of tobacco are easily recognized yet many people either do not want to quit smoking or find it extremely hard to give up.
Ask any smoker about the dangers of tobacco and what diseases it causes and most of them will say cancer, specifically lung cancer. However, there are many more health conditions that can stem from smoking traditional cigarettes. Heart disease and stroke are two major concerns smokers should be aware of. Caused by narrowing of the arteries due to nicotine damage, less oxygen and lack of healthy blood cells could cause blood to clot and deprive certain parts of the body of oxygen.
The dangers of tobacco extend much further than cancer, heart disease and stroke. You could develop cataracts or chronic lung disease like emphysema. Let’s not forget the many other conditions that smoking regular cigarettes can exacerbate. If you get the flu or pneumonia, smoking can reduce your recovery rate and possibly even cause death. Other dangers of tobacco include bone loss from osteoporosis, low birth weight in babies and SIDS.
Adding to the dangers of tobacco are the many scenarios that a lit cigarette can create and cause death. Falling asleep with a lit cigarette can ignite your clothing or create a house fire. Dropping a lit cigarette in your car can distract you from driving and cause an accident, putting not only yourself in danger but others on the road as well.
While there are many dangers of tobacco, the good news is that you can do something about it. Many scientific studies say that if you can quit smoking, within a year, your life expectancy rises quite a bit. Healthier lungs, cleaner smelling hair and clothing and the money savings you can reap are just a few positives you can expect once you acknowledge the dangers of tobacco and do something about it.
