Even though e-cigarettes contain none of the tar and none of the carcinogens that tobacco cigarettes do, many health officials and the FDA in the United States are attacking the products with a vengeance, stating that there is no evidence that e-cigarettes are safe or a successful stop smoking aid.
Quite the opposite is true if they would do just a little research, since studies have been released concerning two major brands of e-cigarettes stating that they are indeed safe for their intended usage. Testimonials and comments can be found web-wide by people asserting that their e-cigarette has helped them stop smoking tobacco cigarettes and that they are upset that the government and health officials are treating the product as if it has done anyone any harm.
If the United States is supposed to be where you are innocent until proven guilty, why doesn't this apply to e-cigarettes? There is no proof that e-cigarettes are a danger to the consumer or to the general public, as one anti-e-smoking petition claims. It states that e-smokers are causing bystanders to be subjected to deadly nicotine when in fact there is no nicotine being released into the air. Nicotine from e-cigarettes becomes absorbed in the throat instead of the lungs and the only thing exhaled by the e-smoker is a harmless water vapor.
E-smokers also report that they are actually smoking less now than they were when they were smoking what some e-smokers now call analogs, which is how many of them refer to tobacco cigarettes. Because the nicotine is absorbed so quickly, the craving is killed faster than using tobacco cigarettes. E-smokers can set it down once the craving is gone and it does not pose a risk of fire because it is not lit. As e-smokers become preoccupied with other things such as their work or household chores, they forget they even have it.
Safety is also an issue for e-smokers. The Los Angeles Times reported in 2008 that at least 24 car accidents were blamed on the stop smoking drug made by Pfizer called Chantix. The FDA has recently linked the drug to suicidal ideation and behavior in a number of individuals, but has not yet removed that product from the market. If Chantix is so dangerous and there is already evidence that it is definitely harmful, why it not getting the same treatment e-cigarettes are getting?
