Since the birth of tobacco, people have taken the dangers of
smoking more and more seriously.
Scientific research has demonstrated that cigarette smoke
contains over 4,000 chemical substances, hundreds of which are
harmful to the human body, with 25 diseases directly related to
smoking, especially carbon monoxide, polycyclic aromatic
hydrocarbon and nitrosamine in cigarette smoke that are considered
the most dangerous carcinogenic substances.
Second-hand or passive smoking has caused serious health issues
for men, women and children. Many countries have already or will
soon be banning smoking in public places. A ban comes into force in
the UK in July 2007.
The Electronic Cigarette is the result of research and
development of a non-flammable cigarette substitute. Please read
our health pages for more information on how you can use the
Electronic Cigarette either to continue to enjoy your pleasure in a
healthier manner or to quit smoking in a gently controlled
fashion.
