Organic Vaping 101: 5 Reasons To Put Down The Cigarette and Give Vaping A Try!

The History of E-Cigarette

The earliest electronic cigarette can be traced to Herbert A. Gilbert, who in 1963 patented a device described as "a smokeless non-tobacco cigarette" that involved "replacing burning tobacco and paper with heated, moist, flavored air". This device heated the nicotine solution and produced steam. It was never commercialized. Hon Lik, a Chinese pharmacist and inventor, who worked as a research pharmacist for a company producing ginseng products, is credited with the invention of the E cigarette.Hon had himself quit smoking, after his father, also a heavy smoker, had died of lung cancer. In 2003 he came up with the idea of using a piezoelectric ultrasound-emitting element to vaporise a pressurized jet of liquid containing nicotine diluted in a propylene glycol solution. This design produces a smoke-like vapour that can be inhaled and provides a vehicle for nicotine delivery into the bloodstream via the lungs. He also proposed using propylene glycol to dilute nicotine and placing it in a disposable plastic cartridge which serves as a liquid reservoir and mouthpiece. Hon patented the modern e-cigarette design in 2003. Electronic cigarettes using a different design were first introduced to the Chinese domestic market in May 2004 as an aid for smoking cessation and replacement. Many versions made their way to the U.S., sold mostly over the Internet by small marketing firms. The company that Hon Lik worked for, Golden Dragon Holdings, changed its name to Ruyan and started exporting its products in 2005–2006, Before receiving its first international patent in 2007. The electronic cigarette continued to evolve from the first generation three-part device. In 2006 the "cartomizer" was invented by British entrepreneurs Umer and Tariq Sheikh of XL Distributors. This is a mechanism which integrates the heating coil into the liquid chamber. The new device was launched in the UK in 2007 in their Gamucci brand and is now widely adopted by the majority of 'cigalike' brands. The grant of the UK patent for the "cartomizer" was made to XL Distributors in February 2013 and published by the UK Intellectual Property Office.The international tobacco companies, recognising the development of a potential new market sector that could render traditional tobacco products obsolete The international tobacco companies, recognising the development of a potential new market sector that could render traditional tobacco products obsolete, are increasingly involved in the production and marketing of their own brands of e-cigarettes and in acquiring existing e-cigarette companies.are increasingly involved in the production and marketing of their own brands of e-cigarettes and in acquiring existing e-cigarette companies. Blu, a prominent US e-cigarette producer, was acquired by Lorillard Inc. in 2012. British American Tobacco launched Vype in 2013, while Imperial Tobacco's Fontem Ventures acquired the intellectual property owned by Hon Lik through Dragonite for $US 75 million in 2013 and launched Puritane in partnership with Boots UK. On Oct 1 2013 Lorillard Inc. acquired another e- cigarette company, this time a UK based company SKYCIG. On Feb 2014, Altria Group, Inc Acquired popular e cigarette brand Green Smoke for 110 million. The deal was finalized in April 2014 for $110 million and $20 million in incentive payments.Altria also markets its own e-cigarette, the MarkTen, while Reynolds American has entered the sector with its Vuse product.

5 Reasons To Put Down The Cigarette and Give Vaping A Try!

1. The Health Aspect:

Nicotine is not the killer, it’s the 4,000 chemicals in a burning cigarette that kills. When you take into the fact of even the smallest detail of lighting your cigarette, things will become a bit more clear to you. Each time you light your cigarette, pulling in to give the cigarette a good burn to stay lit, you’re taking in butane (lighter fluid) right from the start. With vaping electronic cigarettes, there is no lighter. You press a button for the manual start e-cigarettes or for those that are automatic, you simply inhale.

Tobacco use is the single most preventable cause of disease, disability, and death in the United States. Each year, an estimated 443,000 people die prematurely from smoking or exposure to secondhand smoke, and another 8.6 million live with a serious illness caused by smoking.

2. Decrease Nicotine Levels As Desired:
Smoking analog cigarettes, you are set and bound to 1 specific amount that is placed in the cigarette, not giving you the option to adjust your nicotine level intake. With vaping, you can decrease your nicotine levels as desired. You can start at the high, which is 24mg and is most common to find in e-liquid, then the option to decrease in ranges from 24mg to 0mg per e-liquid container/bottle.
Having the option to decrease your nicotine intake is great for completely removing yourself from nicotine all together. Quitting the nicotine habit cold turkey can be a hassle, but with vaping, slowly decreasing your level of nicotine can come with great results for kicking the habit.

3. Cleaner:
The impacts of cigarette litter are many (each discussed below):
– Toxic chemicals leach out of cigarette butts & can kill small animals
– Fires (destroys habitats for animals, homes; Economic costs of fires)
– Ingestion by children and small animals which mistake butts for food
– Cost of cleaning up litter & lost revenue from visitors

from http://www.longwood.edu/cleanva/cigbuttimpacts.html Cigarette butts are not just ugly—they also present a threat to wildlife. Plastic pieces have been found in the stomachs of fish, birds, whales and other marine creatures that mistake them for food. So ingestion of plastic cigarette filters is a threat to wildlife.
Studies conducted by Clean Virginia Waterways show that the chemicals in cigarette butts easily leach out of the butts, and are deadly to water fleas (a small but important animal that lives in most freshwater lakes and streams as well as the ocean). The evidence indicates that the toxic chemicals leached from discarded cigarette butts present a biohazard to the water flea at concentrations of more than 0.125 butts per liter, or about one butt per two gallons of water. The leach ate from the remnant tobacco portion of a cigarette butt is deadlier at smaller concentrations than are the chemicals that leach out of the filter portion of a butt.
Save the water flea – Vape Hard!

4. Flavor Choices:
Flavors choices from a fine cigar or pipe tobacco flavor to key lime pie or your favorite dessert. There are many vendors that offer numerous types of flavored e-liquid to suit your needs.
5. Much Cheaper Cost:

With the rise in cost of cigarettes, if you’re still smoking, one of the ways you’re suffering is in the pocket. The average cost of a premium pack of cigarettes with tax are at a high costing you in ranges of $5.74 to $11.90 depending state by state.
