Are you getting your nicotine fix?

[EricD]

I am definately getting a nicotine fix. I know this because when i go a day with just using the e-cig, i don't feel stupid the whole time lol. In fact, I feel more energized and I can actually smell my environment (for shame eric, for shame). The nicotine intake is not as substantial or quick as with a cigarette because it doesn't have the elements that cut the lining of your throat to make for quicker intake through the bloodstream, but that is to be expected. However, with extra high density liquid and some extra puffs, I feel its very similar. In fact, the tearing( <--- don't know if i spelled that right) feeling seems to be there when I drip for the first few puffs which is reassuring psychologically. I'm confident I will be completely cigarette free over the next couple of weeks, already cut down significantly and am only smoking because I'm having a really intense week....... and because i'm a smoker lol.

Shogun: Where do you live that Customs stopped an nJoy?

I live in Iceland. I ordered e-cigs from both Njoy and minicigarette.net at the same time. For some reason the shipment from minicigarette.net slipped through customs while the Njoy shipment was stopped.

I have applied for exemption to get my Njoy but I am not optimistic...

I wish I can help..but this might do....If you have any pharmaceutical or medical professionals friends , get them to prescribe a medical explanation( a prescription nonetheless) to allow this Njoy package to go thru...It must be for NICOTINE REPLACEMENT TREATMENT......I hope it helps...Good luck....

Thanks for the tip. Custom has answered and they say that I can NOT import nicotine. They give the reason that other carefully valuated nicotine products already exist in Iceland (like inhalers and gum) and therefore they cannot allow an individual to import new nicotine product. Of course I am paraphrasing here but this is the gist.

If the cartridges would be labeled as having Zero nicotine I would be able to import my Njoy...

I just can't believe how stupid these laws are. I can buy cigarettes from almost anywhere but I cannot import a much safer product for personal use. I am thinking of writing a complaint to the ministry of health (no kidding).

You just might be The Eve Incident for Iceland. The first.

Other countries are going to be making similar decisions on the legality of importing, particularly, E-Liquid. Never before in the United States have we been able to acquire such a pure form of nicotine that wasn't an insecticide! Nicotine is deadly poison. Speck for speck, it's deadlier than arsenic and a number of other poisons. For years, it was sold as BlackLeaf 40, an insecticide in the States.

Here's something I found while writing a magazine article about e-smoking: The amount of nicotine needed to kill a grown man is 40mg to 60mg (a regular cigarette has about 1mg). Dr. Loi asked E-Cig how the nicotine in say, a 24mg solution, is measured. It's per 1ml. That's 24mg per 1ml. The smallest bottle sold is a thimble-sized 4ml. Tiny thing. There's 96mg of nicotine in there. That much would put a Suma wrestler six feet under if he drank it.

Do not leave it out where little children might be tempted to try it, or a pet might knock over a vial and slurp the liquid.

I will be surprised if many more governments don't ban importing this nicotine product. I've been hoarding, just in case.
