I was a 30 plus year smoker and used smokeless tobacco on ocassion as well. I have quit cigarette smoking in the past for about a year during that time i used smokeless tobacco.( dip) for my need for nicotine. Eventually went back to smoking and even smokeless tobacco. The costs of cigarettes and smokeless tobacco became a expensive habit. I had noticed some people in my area using electronic devices that emmited vapor but still allowing the user to have nicotine. The most addictive part of smoking or using smokeless tobacco. I went to a local tobacco store and checked into the start up costs and bought a mod and have enjoyed the use of electronic devices. I started with e liquad that was 18 mg/ ml. Nicotine. And have reduced to 12mg and 6 mg/ ml. Nicotine. I have helped many people to kick the cigarette/ smokeless tobacco habit. Vaping is my lifestyle. I promote the alternative lifestyle of vaping. I am a supporter and advocate the choices i and others have made. My health has improved greatly since my change to these devices. And my doctor supports the use of electronic devices!
