Smokeless Cigarettes Eliminate Second Hand Smoke

It's commonly known the Surgeon General has determined that there is no safe amount of second hand smoke (SHS). When you are near a smoker, you inhale the toxic SHS in homes, offices and cars. You are even exposed to large amounts of SHS outdoors when near smokers.

The "Second Hand Smoker" inhales identical toxins & carcinogens as the smoker themselves. The adverse health effects associated with SHS are cardiovascular disease, heart disease, cancer and stroke. Although smoking in public has all but disappeared, the health effects associated with second hand smoke are still of concern to the friends and family of smokers.

So as a smoker, how do you reduce the amount of SHS you expose your loved ones to? Often over looked is the ability of the electronic cigarette to completely eliminate 2nd hand smoke. They burn absolutely nothing. They work by vaporizing a fluid known as e-liquid. When users exhale, all that is released is water vapor. In fact, most people near an e-cig user will not even know as the vapor is odor less and quickly disappears.

There are other advantages of using an e-cig. As they burn nothing, there are no ashes or butts and your clothes no longer smell like an ashtray. They can also save you money. The amount of e-liquid equal to a pack of cigarettes costs about $1.5 meaning you save upwards of $5-$6 per pack per day using an e-cig. This can add up to hundreds of dolars monthly.
