Cigarettes cause an estimated 106 000 deaths in the UK each year, and this is due to the harm that cigarettes cause. Cigarettes have over 4000 harmful chemicals inside of them, and the majority of them have been proven to cause cancer. Nicotine is also in Cigarettes and this is a highly addictive substance.
 
For those who have tried to quit in the past, they find it difficult due to the cravings of Nicotine that their bodies suffer, substitutes like patches and gum have been tried and they do work for some. However others still have the craving and revert back to smoking.

The Electronic Cigarette contains none of the harmful chemicals a cigarette does, in fact the contents of an E-cigarette contains 99% water, 1% Nicotine and other trace ingredients which have been proven not to cause cancer. Seen as the majority of the product is actually water, it is in essence, vapour. The product is not lit, like a traditional cigarette, it is heated up by an element powered by the battery. Then when a user puffs on the E-cig, vapour is released and droplets of Nicotine are dropped off.

Now seen as the E-cig contains none of the harmful contents that a conventional cigarette does, it is obviously the healthier alternative. In addition, the E-cig contains Nicotine, which is the route of the addiction. Now Nicotine alone does not cause cancer, agreeably it is much better for your health to not at all consume Nicotine, but vaping Nicotine instead of smoking a cigarette and all of the harmful chemicals contained is definitely the healthier alternative.

The smoke like vapour emitted is not actually smoke, it is vapour, so this completely defeats the problem of second hand smoke. The worry of passing these horrible chemicals to your friends and family is now relieved.

By using an E-cig product, you are preventing gaining and spreading cancer to yourself, and those around you. The E-cig provides and satisfies your cravings of Nicotine, but has no cancerous toxins. E-cig is, with no doubt, the healthier alternative.
