Document Summary
Nicotine gum, patches, inhaler etc. are safer alternative to cigarettes e-cigarette use is controversial. Burns some water vapor and releases some nicotine. The problem is that people other than smokers have started to try it. Work about the same as other methods used to quit smoking. What happened a couple of years ago is that they"ve started vaping bars" and you can go in and rent it with people etc. Because not everyone going in there is smoking, there"s concern that they"ll get hooked on the nicotine, take up smoking etc. Says to stay away from it since they don"t really know what it is. If you go in to a vaping store you can find other fluids that contain nicotine. It"s a bit of an unregulated grey market, making it slightly dangerous because you don"t know what you"re getting. No burning involved, so essentially it is supposed to be safe.
