What Are Electronic Cigarettes?
Dr. Rodu – “Electronic Cigarettes are 99.9% safer than regular cigarettes”
The invention relates to a non-smokable electronic cigarette spray which only comprises nicotine without harmful tar.
“Electronic Cigarette smokers still get their nicotine“, explains Elicko, a serial entrepreneur and Knight Sticks Founder & CEO, without having to suffer many of the other negative side effects of tobacco smoking. There are absolutely no carcinogenic substances and no tar. Ordinary cigarettes contain some 4,000 different chemical substances. They pollute the air, and they are hazardous to the health of others – including small children – who breathe the dangerous secondhand smoke.“
“Some people say electronic cigarettes will be the next big thing. We say they already are. The popularity is increasing so rapidly and they’re so effective that they’re likely to put Big Tobacco out of business before we know it.”

Since Electronic Cigarette does not burn tobacco or ash like a traditional cigarette, it is not restricted by USA smoking laws and is completely legal to use indoors i.e. restaurants, bars, etc. There are no longer needs for lighters and you don’t have any messy leftovers to dispose of! The Electronic Cigarette is so much more than economical, you enjoy the traditional sensation of smoking, but avoid all of the other adverse side effects!
“You can actually enjoy smoking without the bad parts of the cigaret. There is no tar, no tobacco, no bad chemicals that can cost you a cancer“

“The FDA’s laboratory findings actually indicate that electronic cigarettes are much safer than conventional cigarettes.”

Why Switch To Electronic Cigarettes?
The electronic cigarette comes in many shapes and sizes. Many look more or less like long cigarettes; others look like cigars or pipes. They all work the same basic way:
- The user inhales through a mouthpiece.
- Air flow triggers a sensor that switches on a small, battery-powered heater.
- The heater vaporizes liquid nicotine in a small cartridge.
- The heater vaporizes propylene glycol (PEG) in the cartridge – PEG is is an organic compound of which smoke is made.
- The user gets a puff of hot gas that feels a lot like tobacco smoke.
- When the user exhales, there’s a cloud of PEG vapor that looks like smoke. The vapor quickly dissipates.
- Electronic cigarettes contain no tobacco products; even the nicotine is synthetic.
Here are quotes from acknowledged doctors:
Dr. David Baron – former employee of UCLA medical center has said that he has never seen a product that could save as many lives as Electronic Cigarette!
Dr. Joel Nitzkin a nationally recognized public health physician has stated on bases of available research data that Electronic Cigarette promises risk of illness and death well under 1% of the risk posed by tobacco cigarettes.
DR. Richard Wender – family doctor at Jefferson University hospital and past national president of the American Cancer Society says that the products have promise: “Anything that gets you off real cigarettes is good for your health”
President of American Council on Science and Health Dr. Elizabeth M. Whelan says that the FDA(Food and Drug Administration) should be looking for new alternatives and thinks the electronic cigarette might just be what the doctor ordered. She also points out that e-cigs have over a million users already!
DR. Anthony Panariello, M.D – Pulmonologist(In medicine, pulmonology is the specialty that deals with diseases of the lungs and the respiratory tract) – “I have been in my position for over 20 years. My speciality is pulmonary medicine which means I am a doctor of the lungs. I have had the opportunity to review the findings of the lab reports on the Electronic Cigarette and compare them to traditional tobacco cigarettes and I have also had an opportunity to try Electronic Cigarette out personally – an average tobacco cigarette in addition to nicotine contains over 4000 cancer causing elements also known as carcinogens. Electronic Cigarette contains zero cancer causing elements in other words no carcinogens. Secondhand smoke in cigarettes have been proven to cause cancer to non-smokers. Electronic Cigarette does not produce any secondhand smoke in the traditional sense – it only produces harmless vapor which according to lab reports contains 99% of water and 1% of nicotine and other trace elements which have deemed non-harmful by the FDA. Nicotine can be harmful to your heath and is highly addictive, but Electronic Cigarettes without all the carcinogens that the tobacco cigarette contains is clearly a better alternative to people who already smoke. As a pulmonologist I have seen countless x-rays of lungs severly damaged by tobacco use – you can avoid this by smoking the Electronic Cigarette.
Dr. Anthony Panariello answers some questions:
DOES Electronic Cigarette CAUSE CANCER?
Electronic Cigarette absolutely does not cause cancer unlike traditional tobacco cigarettes which contain over 4000 cancer causing elements. Electronic Cigarette consists of zero cancer causing elements.
IS NICOTINE BAD FOR YOU?
Nicotine is a highly addictive substance and if you are not already a smoker you should not use Electronic Cigarette or any other product that contains nicotine. But if you are a smoker, the Electronic Cigarette is a much better alternative, because it does not contain 4000+ harmful chemicals commonly found in tobacco cigarettes.
WOULD YOU RECOMMEND Electronic Cigarette TO YOUR PATIENTS?
I will definitely recommend this product to my patients who are already smoking, it is a much better alternative than from getting the nicotine from tobacco cigarettes
Dr. Hayden McRobbie said that he was always looking for new and cheaper ways to help people stop smoking
A group of prominent doctors and tobacco researchers, including Dr. Michael Siegel at the Boston University School of Public Health, Dr. Joel Nitzkin of the AAPHP Tobacco Control Task Force, and Dr. Brad Rodu, Endowed Chair, Tobacco Harm Reduction Research University of Louisville, challenge the FDA to provide the full quantitative data of the study upon which the FDA has based its warning against electronic cigarettes. They are concerned that the FDA’s disingenuous targeting of electronic cigarettes through a biased presentation of the scientific data has had significant negative impact upon the public perception of electronic cigarettes, when the best available evidence suggests that these have shown that the devices offer great potential to reduce serious health issues among traditional tobacco smokers.
“The FDA’s laboratory findings actually indicate that electronic cigarettes are much, much safer than conventional cigarettes,” says Dr. Michael Siegel. “The traces of carcinogens present are also present in nicotine replacement products. The FDA and the anti-smoking groups have fallen into a huge analytical trap as they have failed to ask the appropriate question. The question they are asking is: ‘Are electronic cigarettes safe?’ That is not the right question. The right question is: ‘Are electronic cigarettes much safer than traditional ones?’”
Dr. Rodu states, “The FDA tested electronic cigarettes for TSNAs using a questionable sampling regimen, and the methods that were so sensitive that the results may have no possible significance to users. The agency failed to report specific levels of these contaminants, and it has failed to conduct similar testing of nicotine medicines that have been sold in the U.S. for over 20 years. These are not the actions of an agency that is science-based and consumer-focused. These pseudo-scientific actions are clearly intended to form the justification for banning a category of products that are probably 99.9% safer than cigarettes.”
Dr. Joel Nitzkin speaking as individual states, “The newly adopted FDA/Tobacco legislation will give full FDA approval to currently marketed conventional cigarettes. The new law encourages cigarette companies to produce new “reduced exposure” cigarettes to be marketed as reduced exposure products, with no scientific evidence that such reductions in exposure will reduce risk of future tobacco related illness and death. In the context of these provisions of the newly adopted FDA/Tobacco bill — FDA should be encouraging, not maligning the manufacture and sale of electronic cigarettes, and working with manufacturers to assure the highest possible quality control.”
David Sweanor a global harm reduction expert said: “Anyone who think that tobacco cigarettes are no more hazardous than Electronic Cigarette should take a remedial course of basic science.
