In the 1960’s, a teenager with two smoking parents naturally started to smoke at age 14. This lasted until I completed my second year of Medical school when I quit cold turkey due to peer pressure. Many smokeless years passed until significant emotional and physical trauma resulted in my return to smoking over 2 packs of menthol cigarettes a day. Five years later, I successfully switched to Nicorette gum, and never touched another cigarette. The gum became a serious addiction, and its cost was an unwelcome stress. In the summer of 2010, I discovered the e-cig. My studies of the pertinent literature deemed them to be a safe alternative, and my financial resources lead me to invent a re-usable, single use e-cig. Four years have passed and I now vape for pleasure. It is not an addiction, as I can go for days without any cravings at all. I vary the Nicotine content to my taste, as I do similarly with the Propylene Glycol and Glycerin. I have no signs of C.O.P.D. or any cardiovascular disorder related to my e-cig use. I highly recommend that any cigarette smoker MUST try switching to e-cigs. I believe e-cigs to be the only true cure for cigarette smoking.
