Cigarettes vs E-Cigs — Let’s Debate It

They both have pros and cons for example smoking makes you feel way more refreshed can give you the boost you need etc. but others don’t like the smell and can be VERY pricy in some countries and may cause cancer. E-cig dose not feel anywhere as good but not yet proved dangerous and has high start price then stays relatively cheap for liquid and coils.

It’s not dangerous to use a nicotine-free e-cig (provided it has no other drugs either), but nicotine free cigarettes are dangerous.

@Freddyfish The most popular E-Cig/vape brands contain nicotine by default. You actually have to go out of your way to find nicotine-free juice. The FDA classifies them as “ENDS” or “Electronic Nicotine Delivery System”. Nicotine has been linked to cancer and addiction. But if you want to vape the nicotine-free systems, gezunteh heit, but it’s pretty much the same as breathing in the smell of boiling a soft drink and there’s no studies as to whether or not it’s actually safe.

@holybrother What are you on? There’s definitely second-hand smoke with ENDS. And no one cares that it’s safER. We are talking about whether or not it’s safe, period. You’re comparing heroin to fentanyl and stating that heroin is “better”. Since it took the government too long to catch on, a lot of people who would have otherwise never smoked a cigarette are now addicted to nicotine thanks to ENDS. It’s fine for smokers who want to quit, but on that note it’s no better or worse than a nicotine patch. But for the rest of the world it’s just as bad.

Both cigarettes and e cigs are bad for your health. End of discussion.

Neither, Cigars ahh what a machaya!

@FreddyFish (and Luther, who I assume is close by as always)

See the following:

• “Use of electronic cigarettes (e-cigarettes) impairs indoor air quality and increases FeNO levels of e-cigarette consumers” by Wolfgang Schober 2014 from the “International Journal of Hygiene and Environmental Health”
• “5 Truths You Need To Know About Vaping”, Dr. Michael Joseph Blaha, Johns Hopkins Medicine
• Analysis of Secondhand E-Cigarette Emissions, RTI International (RTI.org)

B’kitzure, there’s little difference in inhaling vapors directly or second hand. Both are dangerous.

Nicotine doesn’t cause cancer!

To quote the American Cancer Society:
“It is the smoke from combustible tobacco products — not nicotine — that injures and kills millions of smokers.”

Of course vaping nicotine, glycerin and some flavors is far safer than smoking tar, carbon monoxide and 7,000+ chemicals from tobacco smoke.

@Freddyfish What do you mean “real studies”? What’s wrong with what I posted?

Lommerzuggen: think about it for a minute. Why should there be a nafka mina on how a person ingests the nicotine, whether it’s from vaping directly or second hand?

Cigarettes are much much better! You don’t smoke as much and they are way better feel!

The facts are tobbaco smoke has thousands of dangerous chemicals being inhaled with every puff. Ecigs have some trace amounts of toxic chemicals. the question is,is the tiny amount they do have enough to cause health problems.
