You might be wondering about those electronic cigarettes — are they better or worse that real cigarettes?
Does it actually make a difference??
That’s exactly what this reader wants to know:
My friends keep telling me that smoking Vape cigarettes is healthier because it’s vapor rather then smoke. Is it healthier, or just another way to smoke tobacco?
Luckily we have smoking expert Craig Nabat here!
Here’s his response:
E-cigarettes are just an alternative form of smoking. Yes, safer than cigarettes… though not safe. These products still have nicotine in them. Nicotine is an insectide (used in bug sprays)
Using nicotine to get off nicotine usually just prolongs the quitting process or keeps smokers addicted for many more years.
There you go!
“Better” but not “good!”
Thanks, Craig!
