Please Stay Away from Electronic Cigarette, If…

It has already been proved that electronic cigarette is much safer than even the best quality ordinary cigarette. It is tobacco and tar free, and has none of the 4,000 poisonous carcinogenic materials that ordinary cigarettes are filled with. Also, the nicotine of electronic cigarette, being dissolved and diluted in four liquids, poses very limited threat to the health of both the user or the second-hand receivers of the vapor. E-cig is free of harmful materials like nitrogen dioxide, acrolein, hydrocyanic acid, carbon monoxide and also arsenic.

And yet, there are certain health conditions which require special attention, even if it is regarding something as safe as electronic cigarette.


Allergic to Nicotine:
Electronic cigarette is tobacco free, but not nicotine free. The e-liquid inside it that gives the feel of cigarette is nicotine in liquid state. Though it is very less harmful compared to the ordinary cigarettes, yet if you are inherently allergic to nicotine you should stay away from electronic cigarette also.

Allergy symptoms like swelling of throat, lips, tongue or the face, difficulty in breathing, dizziness, headache, including itching and extreme drying of mouth require abstinent from nicotine.
If you have had a history of heart problems, and have already been advised by the doctor to stay away from tobacco cigarette, it is advisable that you stay away from electronic cigarette as well.

Minors are Not to have any Addiction at all:
Electronic cigarette is safe for most health conditions, but not at all for minors. There is some definite reason why governments all over the world have banned any type of addiction material for minors. Young age deserves healthy options, and not a lifetime of addiction to any substance. If you are a minor, or know somebody who is a minor, then you must know that electronic cigarette is not for minors.

Pregnancy Deserves Utmost Care:
Pregnancy is the time when women and those around her need to give her the most care and attention. It is not just about her life, also a new life for which the mother and all those around are responsible.

What the mother eats or drinks has a direct and important effect on the unborn child’s body and health. Expecting women should be aware that any type of risk can cost them the health of their child.

Electronic cigarette, as well as any type of other addiction material, is a strict no-no for expecting moms. Stay away from nicotine, even if it is in a diluted and weakened form as in e-juice.
