CDC: E-cigarettes, hookahs popular among middle and high-schoolers

[2banon]

40. I'm trying to quit cigs, and have turned to e-cigs ...

I even went an entire 5 days without any cigarettes. Only using e-cig, purchased a kit, with several different flavored liquids..

when I had an actual cigarette I could taste the poison and the toxicity of the tobacco is treated with. I agree that more research and study needs to be conducted.. like one does after being sick and not having smoked for several days. but then that feeling goes away... and there i am again smoking. but I do try and rely on the e-cig for the car and in other circumstances if I'm going to be socializing and so forth. I'd really like to quit cigarettes

I agree more research and study needs to be conducted, but it's clear that e-cigs are a LOT less harmful than manufactured cigarettes. I am a bit leary of the various flavorings in the liquids, and would like more information on those, are there any that are seriously harmful, less so and so on.

Thanks for the article by the way, I have several other articles, analysis on the back story of Big Tobaccos involvement in seeking tight regulations etc, they have their product but isn't anything what vape shops offer from what I've seen so far. i'm in California Bay Area, and I understand that vape shops have been prominent back East for several years, and we're just getting started here in a manner of speaking. So there's a lot of information for me to catch up on.
