			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Millions of people smoke and millions of people try to stop daily. It isn&#8217;t easy and most don&#8217;t truly want to. But the health dangers and the cost make them at least try. That is why many smokers are now turning to an e cigarette, choosing something that allows them to enjoy their habit without all the health dangers attached to it.</p>
<p>This smart alternative to tobacco filled cigarettes carries many benefits with it. There is no tar and no harmful, poisonous substances inhaled to cause health problems. They are smoke free so second hand smoke doesn&#8217;t affect the health of others around the smoker. And, some have the added advantage of controlling nicotine intake by being programmed to release a certain amount over a period of time and shutting off when that amount is reached.</p>
<p>Any smoker knows that the price of cigarettes is rising steadily, even if it doesn&#8217;t stop them from buying them. The prices of these electronic ones are one reason many are deciding to give them a try. The only cost after buying the kit is the refill cartridges, which are much cheaper than tobacco. And, because of the nicotine control, you end up smoking less, especially if you are a chain smoker, saving you more money.</p>
<p>The smoking ban laws make it hard for a smoker to get their fix in, but because these are tobacco and smoke free, the laws don&#8217;t apply. This allows a smoker to enjoy an e cigarette anywhere they want without worry. They can enjoy their nicotine in a restaurant or bar, even at the office or an airport without worry. And, since there is no burning or smoke, there is no residue to clean up like ash or butts.</p>
<p>Because the e cigarette tastes, looks, and feels like a real cigarette you don&#8217;t realize you are missing any of the bad things that come with the traditional one. Instead of smoke, these release a vapor that looks like it, without being toxic, and the end has an LED light on it that lights up when in use. So it feels and looks like you have a conventional cigarette, all without the lingering smell of one.</p>
<p>You only need to carry one and not a pack so you don&#8217;t need to worry about smashed, broken or bulky packs on your person. This frees you up from having to carry them in a case or a purse to protect them. One will fit anywhere easily and always be convenient to use. They also come in varying strength, so you can have full flavor, medium or light, depending on what you would normally smoke.</p>
<p>Many people are now turning to an e cigarette to fulfill their nicotine habit not only because of the cost but the health benefits. This allows them to enjoy themselves without worrying about the harmful side effects of tobacco and smoke when out in public places. The many benefits of e cigarettes are adding to its popularity, creating a safe alternative to a harmful habit.</p>
<p>An <a href="http://www.indoorhdantenna.com/categories/Electronic-Cigarettes%2C-E%252dCigarettes/">e cigarette</a> is an electric option that is much less harmful for your health benefits and for the environment than the traditional nicotine delivery method. <a href="http://www.indoorhdantenna.com/categories/Green-Smoke-E-Cigarette%2C-Electronic-Cigarette/">Green smoke</a> is appealing to anyone who wants to have clearer lungs.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Do you realise what electronic cigarettes are, well here is a quick explanation. They are built like a normal tobacco cigarette but instead of containing tobacco and, usually a filter, they have a rechargeable battery, an atomizer and a small cartridge which holds a measured amount of nicotine (or no nicotine), water and one of a number of popular flavorings.</p>
<p>When a smoker draws on one, their cravings are placated because of the taste of tobacco they receive, the &#8217;smoke&#8217; like vapor that&#8217;s exhaled, the fulfilment they get from holding the cigarette, and the inhalation of nicotine (nicotine free are also available). Because of all these components they can be seen as an alternative to a traditional tobacco cigarette.</p>
<p>The advantages of these cigarettes are that they are more socially acceptable than the standard ones. There are no pollutants in the smoke that&#8217;s emitted, there are no horrible smells to annoy people who are next to you and no ashtrays to clean at the end of the day.</p>
<p>The &#8220;smoke&#8221; like vapor exhaled by them vaporizes within a few seconds, and the odor does not remain with your car, your home or your clothes so they will not have a tobacco smell that is not easy to remove. It doesn&#8217;t leave any visible residue in the air, such as the disagreeable, acrid cloud that is known to that irritates people who sit near to smokers of normal tobacco cigarettes.</p>
<p>The reason why these cigarettes are more healthy than the normal cigarette is that there is nothing being burnt during the process of smoking one. Therefore any smoke emitted has no toxic substances that can do damage to the lungs of the smoker or anybody else.</p>
<p>An major health benefit of these electric cigarettes is that they don&#8217;t use any problematic ingredients. They work using a battery powered atomizer to heat the liquid causing a vapor to be produced. Propylene glycol, which is certified as safe by the USDA, is added to the H2O vapor that is given off to make the smoke more easily seen, as water vapor is invisible. Elusion100 article.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Quit smoking today and your body will start healing tomorrow. Actually it will start within the next 20 minutes. It doesnt take longer before you can see the first signs of the healing process.</p>
<p>20 minutes after your last cigarette, your blood pressure decreases, your pulse rate drops, and your body temperature of your hands and feet increases. 8 hours later your carbon monoxide level in blood drops to normal while oxygen level in blood increases to normal.</p>
<p>Tomorrow at the same time, your risk of a heart attack is decreased. And the day after tomorrow your nerve endings will begin to growth again. Your will also have improved your ability to taste and smell. On day later your breathing will be easier.</p>
<p>The following weeks and month your will improve your circulation. Walking will be easier and your lung function will increase. The nicotine withdrawal symptom will subside after the first month, so you will be able to focus on the psychological need for a cigarette.</p>
<p>On year after you stopped smoking, your risk of coronary heart disease is decreased to half. And smoking is directly linked to 30 % of all heart disease deaths in the United States each year, so this is a very important step.</p>
<p>Some of the most important improvements are the long-term benefits. 5 years from now the risk of a stroke has been reduced to the same level as non-smokers. And 5 years later the risk of lung cancer has dropped to one-half that of the smokers. Other types of cancer like throat, mouth, esophagus, kidney, bladder, and pancreas will also have a lower risk.</p>
<p>The risk of coronary heart disease will be the same of people who have never smoked after 15 years. And in many other ways will the risk of death be at nearly the same level of people who have never smoked.</p>
<p>So do yourself (and your body) a favor and quit smoking today; and see your health improve. Just remember that the nicotine addiction healing process is an ongoing process. You will see some quick improvement, but other will happen more slowly.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>A nicotine habit if by puffing on cigarettes or pipes is one of the most dangerous practices individuals could do. There are more than only medical dangers that are consequences of cigarette use; the addiction is expensive and is quickly losing social acceptance.</p>
<p>People that smoke during their whole life are at a high risk to encounter death earlier than those who do not use tobacco. Luckily, individuals that stop smoking may undo much of the detriment resulting from tobacco use and during a long period of time their medical outlook will look like people who did not smoke.</p>
<p>Several of the dangerous consequences caused by using cigarettes may be reduced if not totally fixed by the end of cigarette smoking. The greater length if time tobacco users are addicted the worse the damage that happens never the less tobacco users that used tobacco for extremely long periods are able to go through a number of benefits by putting an end to tobacco use.</p>
<p>There are a number of positive aspects to ending cigarettes, some of these are readily discernible others are less overt but equally essential for enduring health. Many former cigarette users employ the advantages of stopping as crucial motivators to overcome the desire to again engage in the habit.</p>
<p>One of the established risks of prolonged cigarette use is major disease. Lung Tumors are a primary problem for tobacco users and could not merely bring about reduced life expectancy but also significantly impact quality of living. Experts have determined consistent links among smoking and lung tumors however there is additionally clear evidence quitting smoking could reverse the hazard. Studies have demonstrated the probability of developing respiratory cancer consistently is reduced from the moment nicotine users stop smoking. People who successfully refrain from tobacco use for a period of 10 years experience their chance of developing lung cancer decreased substantially to approximately the level of non nicotine users.</p>
<p>Tobacco fumes are made up of various component parts, some of them may be corrosive to teeth. Consistently breathing in tobacco smoke could contribute to the degradation of outer tooth layers which could result in tooth decay. Dental aid may alleviate tooth concerns including color change however it may be expensive and less effective during a long time. Quitting cigarettes is the most effective technique to stop dental problems and help to promote dental care.</p>
<p>The probability of developing lung problems is significantly elevated in tobacco users than individuals that do not use any tobacco products. Cardiopulmonary disorder is prevalent in life long smokers. This condition may not only cause an untimely passing they could additionally force quality of living to deteriorate noticeably. Fortunately the risk for this issue may be considerably decreased by stopping cigarette smoking. The faster nicotine users end their habit the earlier they can regain their health, never the less tobacco users who have used tobacco for many years could noticeably benefit their health profile by quitting.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Many people have probably told you to quit smoking. When deciding to give up nicotine, you should also be aware that there are some quit smoking side effects that you will have to deal with. Now, they are not as scary as you might first think, but you should be aware of them, in order to be prepared and deal with the them right way.</p>
<p>Well I can give you some good reason to stop smoking. Your health and your family&#8217;s health. One good way of quitting is to put your money for cigarettes into a jar, then spend that money on something you like. The point is to reward yourself for your achievement. At the same time, hopefully when you see how much money you are paying out to kill yourself, it will give you extra motivation to quit.</p>
<p>There are many ways of quitting smoking, cold turkey being one of the most common. This means that you decide to give up at a certain time on a specific day. From that time onwards, you don&#8217;t have another smoke again. Some people have the will power to do this themselves. Others need the help and assistance from a quit line or counseling service. It doesn&#8217;t matter how you do it, what is important is that you stop.</p>
<p>Why should you stop if you have been a smoker for years? You can gain health benefits regardless of when you cease. Your lungs may not fully recover but they will to a certain extent. It depends on how long you have been an addict and how much damage has been done.</p>
<p>Don&#8217;t give up if you are not successful the first time you quit. Keep trying again and again until you have become a non smoker. You have far too much to gain by not indulging in this habit. If it helps, avoid the social occasions you associate with having a smoke for a while. If you associate a cigarette with a drink, then temporarily give up alcohol as well.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Once looked upon as a fad product, the electronic cigarette has now gained major acceptance in the cigarette alternatives world. But is the electronic cigarette safe? The question can only be answered by first reviewing the relevant facts.</p>
<p><b>What&#8217;s Dangerous About Regular Tobacco Cigarettes?</b> When regular tobacco cigarettes burn, a toxic smoke is generated. This smoke contains over 3,000 chemicals and carcinogens that contribute to deadly diseases, including lung cancer. As if it is not worse enough, the second hand smoke that you breathe out is even more deadlier than the first hand inhalation. This is because the cooler smoke that comes out of the lungs can attack bystanders better than when it was still fresh.</p>
<p><b>What is Different About Electronic Cigarettes?</b> Electronic cigarettes, on the other hand, do not generate smoke by burning tobacco. Instead, it delivers a smoke-like water vapor that contains very few chemicals. Specifically, the vapor only delivers nicotine and flavors, cutting out the rest of particles and bad chemicals. Although the vapor still contains nicotine, it is far better than the thousands of chemicals present in regular tobacco smoke. But does this make electronic cigarettes safe? We need to take a look at nicotine to find out.</p>
<p><b>Information on Nicotine</b> When some people think of nicotine, they think of lung cancer. However, the truth is that nicotine is not carcinogenic. It is actually the other chemicals in tobacco smoke that lead to lung cancer.</p>
<p>Nicotine, when by itself, is only mildly addictive. For this reason, nicotine should be a fairly easy substance to quit. Nevertheless, cigarettes are hard to quit because smokers are addicted to both the nicotine and the smoking behavior. Electronic cigarettes satisfy both aspects&#8230;but without all the harmful chemicals that come with regular cigarettes.</p>
<p><b>So Are Electronic Cigarettes Really Safe to Use?</b> If you ask a doctor if you should smoke anything, the answer is mostly likely to be &#8220;no&#8221;. But if you do smoke, the electronic cigarette is absolutely safer than regular cigarettes. It lacks the dangerous chemicals that cause lung cancer and literally stops smokers from killing themselves.</p>
<p>But is the electronic cigarette another excuse for people to keep smoking? Some people think so. But given the fact that most of chronic smokers continue to smoke regular cigarettes regardless of their dangers, electronic cigarettes are the most logical choice besides quitting for real.</p>
<p>Marc Riley had been a cigarette smoker for many years. He switched to electronic cigarettes a few years ago and has been an avid researcher ever since. His encourages his fellow smokers to switch to <a href="http://www.smokereview.info">Electronic Cigarette</a> for a healthier lifestyle.

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div style='font-style:italic' class='byline'>by Martin Elmer</div>
<p>If you quit smoking today, your body will start thanking you tomorrow. Well, actually it will start to thank you after 20 minutes. Thats the time it takes, before you begin to heal.</p>
<p>20 minutes after your last cigarette, your blood pressure decreases, your pulse rate drops, and your body temperature of your hands and feet increases. 8 hours later your carbon monoxide level in blood drops to normal while oxygen level in blood increases to normal.</p>
<p>Tomorrow at the same time, your risk of a heart attack is decreased. And the day after tomorrow your nerve endings will begin to growth again. Your will also have improved your ability to taste and smell. On day later your breathing will be easier.</p>
<p>The following weeks and month your will improve your circulation. Walking will be easier and your lung function will increase. The nicotine withdrawal symptom will subside after the first month, so you will be able to focus on the psychological need for a cigarette.</p>
<p>On year after you stopped smoking, your risk of coronary heart disease is decreased to half. And smoking is directly linked to 30 % of all heart disease deaths in the United States each year, so this is a very important step.</p>
<p>It is not only the short-term benefits, which makes it worth quitting. The risk of a stroke has been reduced to the same as people who have never smoked after only 5 years. And the risk of lung cancer drops to one-half that of the smokers after 10 years. The risk of other cancer types will also decrease; including the risk of cancer in the throat, esophagus, kidney, mouth, and pancreas.</p>
<p>15 years from now, the risk of a hearts disease will be the same as people who have never smoked. In general the risk of death will be almost at the same level of people who have never smoked.</p>
<p>So stop smoking today and see the result already tomorrow. But remember that it is an ongoing process to heal from a nicotine addiction. So expect quick improvements, but do also realize that other improvements will happen more step by step.</p>
