Hi, my name is Sean, I started smoking cigarettes around the age of 13, I smoked all the way up until the age of 20. Electronic cigarettes were a new alternative so I decided to buy one. Just to clarify, it was not a small e-cig that you can pick up at any local convenience store, it was a variable voltage/wattage mod. Since deciding to buy a nicotine vaporizing mod I have been tobacco free for over a year. The health benefits have been enormous, such as my blood pressure becoming healthy for a young male, unlike my constant reading of 138/90 when I was smoking cigarettes, I am now worry free of cancer and all the health risks associated with cigarettes, and my lungs actually functioning as they were intended have inspired me to start playing basketball at my local courts multiple times a week which has lead to weight loss which has lead to a healthier lifestyle and a hell of a lot more self-esteem. Not only have vaporizers benefitted me but also my community. I would see closed down little shops just adding to the depression of our economy, but now 3 vapor shops have opened up and I’m quite happy to know my dollar spent going towards e-juices is a dollar earned by the hard working American who opened up the shop and created the e-juice himself and not a foreign entity that only sucks money from my small community. I hope others see this as a testimonial towards a longer lasting life and a way to support the hardworking American business which is so rare these days.
