My Research Findings and Switch: What's Good & What's Not

This book is a detailed manual of the e-cigarette. But along with hard facts, personal experiences also provide the stimulus for this publishing effort. I have been puffing cigarettes as long as I can remember, and it was inevitable that I would not only contract a sinus, but also go through a throat surgery. Undergoing the medical procedure, I was strictly warned not to smoke for a week. Since I had no other choice, I figured out that after 29 long years, the time had come for me to say goodbye to smoking.

And then I saw an ad for e-cigarettes on the Internet. The particular one I saw was an ego tank type, and at that time I was simply confused as to what it really was. But somehow I managed to order it along with 18 mg strength nicotine, and I received it the next day. I took the first puff and had an epiphany!

The product was clean and had a superb taste. I was getting my dose of nicotine without taking in the bad stuff like tar and other carcinogens. The best part is that I could smoke at home, and anywhere else for that matter. And so I have been using e-cigarettes ever since. All the material in this book comes from my personal experience.

In this second edition, I updated the book and the information as this is an ever-changing industry and new e-cigarette devices are coming out every so often.

Nicotine is a Harmful Drug

Very comprehensive, informative, and personal overview of e-cigarettes by a former smoker and current vapor. Many facts are presented, but not a well rounded presentation of the negative biological effects of nicotine.

While the author doesn’t recommend that non-users of nicotine choose to start using the drug, he doesn’t come out strongly against its use. To his credit, he does cover the detoxification process from cigarettes to vapor in great detail. Just reading that should be enough to question the continued use of nicotine.

It is certainly a much, much safer drug delivery system for current smokers, but nicotine is not an innocuous drug along the likes of caffeine. Search the Web for accredited research and you will find papers detailing a multitude of adverse health effects of nicotine throughout the body’s organ systems.

Everyone has the right to choose to put a (non-native) drug into their system for its’ positive effects, but they should do so only after carefully considering all possible adverse side effects. This applies to any drug including prescription medication.
