My edit of the form letter.....
I was a 2 packs a day smoker for 25 years. It has been 49 days since I last smoked a cigarette. That is approximately 1,200 cigarettes that I have NOT smoked, and over $350 that I have NOT spent on tobacco cigarettes.
I owe that to Personal Vaporizers (electronic cigarettes).
Because I was able to switch from smoking to personal vaporizers, I now breathe easier and have more energy. I no longer cough. I do not stink of tobacco. I no longer pollute the air around me. I no longer burn holes in my clothing. I feel healthier. I can exercise easier.
I tried the nicotine gum, the nicotine patches, the drugs, to no avail. Only the personal vaporizer is working.
I am not the only one with this experience. Ask the “man on the street” and you will find there are more of us that have quit smoking tobacco by using e-cigarettes than you think. We number in the hundreds of thousands, if not millions. And that number grows every day.
I want to get the word out to every news organization. I ask that you not be misled by the vocal, counterfactual (lying), advocates for the industries and organizations whose profession is tobacco and e-cigarette prohibition. Those organizations include big tobacco, big pharmaceutical, big healthcare, and our government, which is heavily invested in those entities. They cite old, disproved, poorly enacted studies to back up their claims.
They claim that e-cigarettes might be harmful. Might. They ignore the recent studies that show e-cigarettes and personal vaporizers to be many magnitudes safer than tobacco cigarettes.
There are approximately 600 ingredients in cigarettes. When burned, they create more than 4,000 chemicals. At least 50 of these chemicals are known to cause cancer, and many are toxic.
The electronic cigarette, on the other hand, has up to only 4 ingredients, all FDA approved ingredients, none of which is toxic and and none of which has been proven to cause cancer: propylene glycol and/or vegetable glycerin (found in many FDA approved foods), food grade flavoring (optional) and nicotine (optional).
The voices you will hear today, on World Vaping Day, are those of us who who have switched from smoking tobacco to using the much safer e-cigarette. There are more of us than you may think; in this country alone, we number in the hundreds of thousands, if not millions. Worldwide, we number in the millions, if not tens of millions. And that number grows every day. Each and every one of us is prolonging life and improving health.
And we do this by harming no one. We are no health danger to anyone. We are simply trying to break free from one of the most addictive substances on Earth.
Here are some links to recent studies and articles showing the differences between tobacco and e-cigarettes. Please take the few minutes it will take to read these reports and become more knowledgeable about personal vaporizers.
