    I have a friend who recommended them. My grandfather just died from lung cancer. My daughters ( 5 and 7) are watching every move I make. I would really like to quit smoking. I hate the smell. I don't want to die like my grandfather. I don't want my daughters to smoke. I just like the way cigarettes help me relax from all the stress in my life. I just checked it out on the internet, but I would like to know from someone who can give me an honest answer from their own experience. Of course the website does not make any promise to help you quit smoking.

    Yes they do, but you have to try and not get addicted to those as well, because they too have a side affect.

    Hello Nelly,

    With ecigs you quit 1000s of carcinogens, tobacco and tar. You continue to be addicted to nicotine and the habit of smoking (physical action). Over time you can try to lower your nicotine intake.

    Here is a good discussion on how to quit with ecigs:

    I think 50% of it for me is the action of smoking..the physical action of smoking and the other half was the actual nicotine. I quit after 5 years of smoking and my mother in law after 30 years with e-cigarettes.

    To answer the safety question...common logic suggest they are MUCH MUCH safer than traditional cigarettes. 4000 chemicals vs a few and no tar, smoke or carcinogens. There hasnt been many studies done yet so most companies dont make health claims due to FDA regulations. THey are also much cheaper in the long run vs treaditional cigarettes.

    I tried a few different brands before I found one that I like with the ProSmoke electronic cigarette. Their site is www.ProSmokeStore.com. Not spam, just offering you a choice since I had to buy a few brands before I found one that tastes great and produced the same amount of vapor or more than a real cigarette..including the one you mentioned. No reason to switch if it doesnt feel the same right?!!?

    They also dont charge you every month for refills like other companies, you buy them as you need.

    Good luck!

    Yes they help. These other ans so far are good. You will need some snuff too the Swedish kind is only a little harm-full and helps you a lot, only a little is needed and it is especially easy to use when driving or around people when you need to calm down in a public place.
    After a while you can control the addiction.. Use gum and candy too, for the oral fixation.
