E Cigarette - FAQ's:
- Are E Cigarettes Safe? - E Cigarettes Clinical Trails
Clinical trails have now been carried out in New
Zealand by Dr. Murray Laugeson of Health New Zealand.
The test found that the E Cigarette was:
"...very safe relative to cigarettes, and also safe in absolute terms
on all measurements we have applied. Using micro electronics it
vaporizes, separately for each puff, very small quantities of nicotine
dissolved in propylene glycol, two small well known molecules with
excellent safety profiles, - into a fine aerosol. Each puff
contains one third to one half the nicotine in a tobacco cigarette's
puff. The cartridge liquid is tobacco-free and no combustion
occurs."
