Propylene glycol, the primary ingredient in the electronic cigarette cartridge, may be a powerful deterrent against pneumonia, influenza, and other respiratory diseases when vaporized and inhaled according to a study by Dr. Oswald Hope Robertson.

Decades before the e cigarette was invented, a study was conducted by Dr. Robertson of the University of Chicago’s Billings Hospital in 1942 on inhalation of vaporized propylene glycol in laboratory mice. A more in-depth article was printed in the Nov.16th 1942 issue of TIME Magazine http://www.time.com/time/magazine/article/0,9171,932876,00.html.

Dr. Robertson placed groups of mice in a chamber and sprayed its air first with propylene glycol, then with influenza virus. All the mice lived. Then he sprayed the chamber with virus alone. All the mice died.”

The researchers also found that “the propylene glycol itself was a potent germicide. One part of glycol in 2,000,000 parts of air would–within a few seconds–kill concentrations of air-suspended pneumococci, streptococci and other bacteria numbering millions to the cubic foot.”

A recent product-specific survey conducted of 1000 people stated that 76% of e-cigarette smokers had quit once they received their product.  This bodes will for advertisers as we continue to see more and more offers appear online.  While the FDA has released preliminary reports that this product could be harmful, it appears that smokers or smokers trying to quit are seeing that the benefits may outweigh the risks.

Dr. Kevin Sherrin, president of the American Association of Public Health Physicians – who is not compensated by e-cigarette makers – says conventional cigarettes are “much more hazardous” than e-cigarettes. To get more smokers to use them instead of cigarettes, he proposes that e-cigarettes be immediately regulated as tobacco products. The use of e-cigarettes, he argues, could help save 400,000 Americans who die each year from tobacco-related illness, as well as 48,000 people who die from secondhand smoke, and 700 people who die in fires caused by smoking.

The FDA’s DeLAncey says while levels of carcinogens may be far lower than from regular cigarettes, the long-term effect of using e-cigarettes is not known.

While it remains to be seen what the exact impact of the product or news surrounding the product, it appears E-cigarettes are here to stay.

It is well known that quitting smoking is a difficult task to accomplish, especially on your first try. Following are some stop smoking tips to help you kick the habit while keeping your sanity and inching your way toward a healthier lifestyle.

Chewing gum can make things a little easier on you while you are in the process of weaning off cigarettes. Sometimes, the act of smoking is a big part of the habit. People get so used to having a cigarette in their mouth that when they try to quit, it feels awkward not to have anything in their mouth. Chewing gum is a good way to wean off cigarettes by still keeping something in your mouth. After all, a chewing gum habit is much better than smoking. This is one of the stop smoking tips that can be used in combination with others such as nicotine gum. You can also use the chewing gum to wean from the nicotine gum as well.

Think of the things that you usually do while you are smoking. Do you usually have a cigarette in the morning right after you wake up? Do you smoke after every meal? Staying conscious of the times that you usually find yourself smoking will greatly increase your chances of quitting. After a meal, distract yourself by reading a magazine or watching television for ten minutes. After a few minutes of other distractions, you just might find that your craving passes. These stop smoking tips will help you stay aware of your surroundings and are great for people who want to stop smoking naturally.

Smoking is often used to calm people down and relieve stress. Try squeezing a stress relief ball or taking deep breaths. Smoking is an impulse action that is sometimes triggered by emotions. Doing something else to take care of those emotions will reduce your urge to smoke, and slowly you will find other ways to deal with your stress. You can also try taking a quick walk to achieve the same results. These stop smoking tips will help you quit your smoking habit and get some exercise at the same time.

These stop smoking tips are just a few that can help you kick your habit and live a healthier, cheaper, cigarette free lifestyle. On top of these, you can use the common method of stop smoking aids such as nicotine gum or patches. Talking with others who are quitting is also a good way. There are many support groups out there that you can try.
