This is one question that many tobacco smokers are burning to know the answer to and the truth is there are some aspects of using an electric cigarette that are just obviously better than smoking tobacco. To what degree of better is still yet to be determined, but there are some facts that you can analyze for yourself and draw your own conclusions.

The same as with many other products that are on the market for sale, sometimes there is good and bad about about them and you have to weigh for yourself if the good outweighs the bad. However, so far there has not been any real evidence that using the e-cigarette has any really harmful affects other than the nicotine involved, but even this seems to be less dangerous when removed from the tobacco and other deadly chemicals according to some studies.

So, at this point, the electric-cigarette can not really make any definitive claims to be healthier from the legal stand point, at least not until the product gains full FDA approval, but the benefits when compared to smoking tobacco are undeniable. When you smoke tobacco, it is burned and this burning produces toxic smoke and tar from the tobacco material itself. The electric cigarette does not produce toxic smoke or any tar because it has no tobacco in the first place and in the second place it is not burned in any way. This definitely has to be a plus and a move in the right direction as far as health is concerned.

The nicotine issue is still being debated. Of course, it is probably better if a person did not inhale nicotine in any form, but some studies have shown that nicotine might be less addictive when is is used alone and not combined with the tobacco and the hazardous chemicals that are used in the growing and production of tobacco.

Although there is some chemical content involved in making the nicotine liquid for e-cigarettes, these chemicals when stood alone have all been deemed as safe for use by the FDA. The same can not be said for dozens of chemicals that can be found in tobacco like ammonia, benzene,formaldehyde, and even arsenic and cyanide. It does nor take much analysis of any kind to know that these chemicals can kill you.

For now you can take the evidence that is available and use your own common sense to determine what you think about the health benefits of the electronic cigarette. The one thing that we can say for certain is that tobacco smoking is deadly without a doubt. It kills thousands of people every year. So far we have not heard of one single incident where anyone has died from using a electronic cigarette.
