New Study, Past Studies, and Where To Go From Here

The electronic cigarette world has been buzzing after a new study was recently published, reporting that e cigs have little effect on the heart. This is great news for e cig smokers and manufacturers, as users now have a little more justification for switching to these alternative smoking devices. On the other hand, the manufacturers now have a stronger push behind their products even though it’s not allowed to market these devices in the U.S. as more healthy or safer than traditional cigarettes.

In compliance with the FDA, e cigarettes must be marketed as smoking alternatives and not smoking cessation devices, because that would transform these products into pharmaceuticals. Thus, an ecig company cannot tell their clients that they could use these products in order to quit smoking or that they should switch to e cigs because they are safer than regular ones. On the other hand, it’s pretty obvious that a lot of consumers are switching over in order to stop smoking. If you look at a lot of customer reviews or if you browse through forum discussions, it will be pretty clear that the main objective for these people was to quit.

E Cigs And Their Impact On Heart Function

The new study has concluded that these devices do not seem to be negatively affecting the hearts of their users. While this is wonderful to hear, the researchers also acknowledged that this was a very small study and that larger ones need to be conducted in the near future.

Electronic Cigarettes and Their Impact On The Lungs

In another study, researchers found that e cigs have a negative short term effect on the lungs of its users, which helps confirm the fears of the governments who have been trying to ban these products along with traditional cigs. In this study, the researchers measured the airway resistance in individuals after having them use e cigarettes. They found that there was an immediate and higher airway resistance in individuals who had very healthy and normally healthy lungs.

These are great studies, for they are beginning to provide information about these products, which are becoming more and more popular each year. The next obvious step is to conduct studies and research on wider scale, which could provide definite answers and create a more informed consumer base.

Tired of “Real E Cig Reviews”?

Don't They Seem Desperate When They Say They Have “Real E Cig Reviews”?

So I’m fairly new to the world of electronic cigarette smoking, or e vaping, but it doesn’t take an expert to realize that most of the e cig review sites out there are not really objective as they claim. For various types of products, there are typically tons of real reviews out there by people who have actually tried them. These are honest reviews that actually help people decide what brands to pick. However, this isn’t usually the case with e cigs, as there are tons of review sites that only seem to have some of the top brands.

What's Wrong With E Cigarette Review Sites?

So, is it bad that they only have the top brands on these review sites? Well, yeah, I think so! I could be wrong, as it’s logical that most of these sites are going to want to review the e cigs that are most commonly found on the internet and at your local gas station or grocery store. However, when hundreds of these review sites each review the same brands, then it becomes a little suspicious. It’s like beating a dead horse, isn’t it? Why put up a review that another more popular review site already put up? Also, notice how these sites have links to the top brands, which of course drives traffic to these company websites.

What about the little brands? There are a bunch of unknown electronic cigarette brands that never get mentioned on these review sites. Why not bring a little variety to your site every once in a while to let users know that there are other options. Isn’t that what reviews are for? I would like to read a review that doesn’t actually try to sell me something. I want to read both the good and the bad about each brand, and I want to discover new brands that I’ve never read before. Another thing that you notice is how these review sites never really compare e cigs to one another. They can say something, like “Hey, E-Cig A is really good, but E Cig B does it better.”

Electronic Cigarette Forums:

So… what do we do? In my opinion, the best reviews to look at are those that can be found inside forums, such as http://www.e-cigarette-forum.com/forum/ A lot of these forums are moderated by actual users and are strict about companies that try to spam the hell out of them. For now, I think we have to rely on these little forums!
