Are there statistics or studies on how much one average person consumes from an e-cigarette compared to a regular cigarette?
So even if I smoke 30% more than I used to I'm probably consuming significantly less harmful chemicals in the end, including nicotine. Which means it will probably be easier to quit vaping than cigarettes, especially as I could taper the nicotine percentage from 6mg -> 0mg over a period of time without adjusting behaviour.
On the other hand I hardly ever felt any vapour smell from e-cigarettes.
Also... Smoke is a mixture of gas and solid materials, while vapour is a mixture of gas and liquid.
I think using precise terms in a debate brings extra clarity into it, so instead of inventing poetic proxy terms, like e-smoke, let's just use the more commonly understood word "vapour" instead.
I knew a friend with a much, much worse smell allergy where a smell of the right color dye would cause seizures and possibly kill them.
To combat this, tobacco companies put some sugar on the filter tip and I believe better tobacco in the very tip of the cigarette, this way the first hit is better than all of the others.
It might just be the placebo effect that makes it taste better after, but who cares?
I read a study showing that the absorption rate of nicotine is about half through an e-cigarette, because of other chemicals in normal cigarettes that increase the rate.
