E-Cigarette

Members,
 
Health Canada warns Canadians not to use the E-cigarette.  

For those of you who don’t know, the e-cigarette is intended to be used as an NRT.  It resembles a real cigarette and contains an atomizer, battery and cartridge of nicotine.  You do not have to light it, you simple suck on the tube and a vapor containing nicotine and propylene glycol is inhaled.

Health Canada states that although the e-cigarettes are safer than real cigarettes; the product still poses risks to the consumer. Some potential risks are nicotine poisoning and addiction.  No form of e-cigarette has been accepted as compliant with the Food and Drugs Act and no sale of the product has been allowed in Canada.

Members, what are your thoughts on the e-cigarette?
