The Electronic Cigarette health benefits are about what they don't do to the human body then what they do. Unlike with a regular cigarette, there is no tar or carcinogens in the electronic cigarette. Health wise, using a electronic cigarette instead of a regular cigarette is the best switch you can make if giving up the smoking habit isn't yet an option. The electronic cigarette health benefit, is that you are not smoking a regular cancer cause cigarette that burns chemical treated tobacco.

I own a pink electronic cigarette and I am very happy with mine. You can see a picture of the same pink electronic cigarette I have depicted below.

The Electronic Cigarette health benefits are simply that they do not contain the dangerous Ingredients found in regular cigarettes. The electronic cigarette works by using a battery to power a atomizer. The cartridge that contains to substance that is "smoked" consists of liquid-nicotine, tobacco extract flavors and Propylene glycol. The atomizer heats the liquid nicotine creates a vapor produced by the Propylene glycol. These are safe substances. Propylene glycol is a solvent that has been deemed safe by the USDA as a food additive. It's found in many household products and foods include food coloring. The reason for using it is that water vapor is invisible. The Proylene glycol creates the visual "smoke" when exhaled.

There is no actual burning of anything and so the smoker is not taking in the toxic smoke into their lungs. Vapor is not damaging to lungs, the smoked caused by burning tabbaco is.

There is also no first hand smoke, no second hand smoke, or the new third hand smoke (smoke found on clothing, fabrics, etc.) Your family will not be harmed by you using a electronic cigarette right next to them. The tabacco extract does offer the flavor of cigarettes when inhaling but there is no smell whatsoever from the vapor.

While these are growing intensely in popularity among people of all ages, they are not intended for use by people under the age of 18. The electronic cigarette contains the drug nicotine. It is the same addictive ingredient in real cigarettes and the dangers associated with forming addiction are not different for young people. Electronic cigarettes do not pose the same health risks as regular cigarettes, but the nicotine is still addictive in any form.

Electronic cigarettes are best used by adults over 18 who already smoke and are looking for a safer technology so that they can still take in the nicotine in a form they are familiar with. Keep in mind that just like with regular cigarettes, nicotine in any form does pose the risk of raised blood pressure and should not be used by pregnant women because nicotine can stunt the growth of a developing fetus.
