Electronic cigarettes

[Otta]

Coolio, I will take you up on that.

I can't lie, I'm unlikey to give up all together, but I really do want to stop buying "tailor mades", as they really do leave me feeling nasty the next day.

This article focuses only on second hand smoke and cancer, and it's full of glaring inaccuracies. But I bet he made a load of money selling his rubbish book to people who enjoy having the wool pulled over their eyes! ;-)

[Saffron]

The Lancet has a good article on worldwide burden of disease from second hand smoke:

[DulwichFox]

Are there any Electronic Cigars..

Would seem more appropriate for after Dinner in ED.

The Commentator, Jah? Really?

[Jah Lush]

There's more junk science in The Lancet than you can shake a stick at when it comes to passive smoking related issues.

Try this.

What's dangerous about a bra?

[Jah Lush]

Hmm... I did wonder about that one Alan.

[steveo]

Can you get e-spliffs?

[Jah Lush]

Would they have the same effect?

[Brendan]

I have heard that it is possible to make a mixture of vegetable glycerol, distilled water and hemp oil to fill the devices with.

[Robert Poste's Child]

No idea about cancer but the three big ones for narrowing the arteries are supposed to be saturated fat, stress and nicotine. If you can't give up smoking completely then perhaps with eCigs the lack of tar to the lungs means more oxygen in the blood and a bit less strain on the heart?

Vaporisers were popular a few years ago but were expensive and didn't give a proper 'hit'.

When I gave up smoking I used the sprays for a while but they were harsh and unpleasantly 'minty' so just gritted teeth and whined a lot. 21 months smoke free so far.
