The short answer is that most people agree they are safer than real cigarettes, but not as safe as not 'smoking' at all.
The first thing you have to understand is that electronic cigarettes are fairly new, so there have not been extensive tests done on them.
Also, its important to understand that the original purpose of these Smokeless cigs was to help people stop smoking. Therefore, most all of the vapor that is inhaled when using an E-cig contains nicotine.
Nicotine is not a substance that doctors are especially fond of. Its not good for you. So asking a doctor if inhaling a nicotine mist is safe is a bit of a trick question.
The nicotine that is contained in E-cigs comes in different concentrations. Obviously, its better to smoke the lower nicotine cartridges than the higher.
Additionally, you should be aware that one of the major risks right now when it comes to E-cigs is the unsafe conditions that many E-cigs are made in.
When people ask me, are electronic cigarettes safe? I usually say, yes but...
The smokeless cigarettes need to have been made in a safe factory.
I created this website in part because I have visited many of the factories where E-cigs are made and I can help you narrow down your options and pick from a list of safe companies.
But hey, don't take my word for it. Click the link below to read that the FDA has to say about E-cigs.
I use electronic cigarettes because they are safer than real cigarettes. And because if I did not smoke smokeless E-cigarettes, then I would be smoking real cigarettes. And there is no question in my mind that E-cigs are much safer than real cigarettes.
Therefore, when people ask me, 'are electronic cigarettes safe'?
I have not problem saying, that I smoke them, and I for me, they are a great alternative to smoking. But each of us has to make up our own minds based on the facts.
