Electronic Cigarettes: Are They Really Better For Your Health? Is This The Death Of Big Tobacco?



Electronic Cigarettes: Are They Really Better For Your Health? Is This The Death Of Big Tobacco?

Part of a new series: It's what many smokers are calling a “miracle technological breakthrough.” But, could making the switch to electronic cigarettes really change your life?

Mentioned E-Cigarettes Were Provided By Prado,
We investigate the truth behind this new technological breakthrough.
E lectronic cigarettes have recently grabbed the attention of almost every tobacco user in North America. Everywhere you look there’s an internet blog, an ad, or a doctor calling the “e-cigarette” the new healthier alternative to traditional cigarettes. But can this clever looking contraption live up to all the hype? Or have we embraced the latest Hollywood trend without real merit or scientific evidence that electronic cigarettes truly are the #1 smoking alternative?

On the day when we first inspected the electronic cigarette, it was easy to see that the device in fact does look and feel like a normal cigarette. Creators and product users are claiming that you can now enjoy a healthier cigarette without the bad smells, second-hand smoke, or cancer causing chemicals. Plus they claim you can still get your nicotine fix and enjoy the ability to smoke indoors, and in many areas that real cigarettes were previously banned. Sounds almost too good to be true right? That's what we thought as well. So we had our own Jared Brague test these incredible claims. And the results, to say the least, were very shocking. Here are just a few of the outstanding benefits that Prado™ Electronic Cigarettes has been claiming on their website:

* No tar, tobacco, carbon monoxide, or ash. * Get the same amount of nicotine as a regular cigarette. * Each cartridge costs less than $2 and is equivalent to an entire pack of cigarettes. * You can save over $1,000 each year. * You won't "smell" like a smoker any longer. * Different flavors are available. * Smoke in many locations that traditionally ban smoking. * No more second-hand smoke.


When Jared received his electronic cigarette trial kit, he passed the device around so everyone could take a look. Sure enough, the product looked and felt like a cigarette. The device was also very well made and seemed safe to use. When Jared took his first few drags on the device, we all stared in amazement. It looked like Jared was smoking in the office, but with one huge difference. There was no tobacco smell and no second-hand smoke. Just a harmless vapor.
We were also able to confirm the money savings claims. Each cartridge was equivalent to approximately 1 pack of cigarettes at a cost of only a couple of dollars each, meaning that smokers who smoke 1 pack per day can easily save over $1,000 per year. And since the device satisfied Jared's nicotine cravings, we knew that we had found a product that actually works.
For smokers who have thought about quitting, the Prado™ electronic cigarette brings even better news. The United Health Organization concluded that "In the short time that electronic cigarettes have become popular, the number of people who have been able to quit smoking and stay cigarette free have risen by an estimated 300%. No other methodology has proven so successful in such a short period of time."

A Top 10 U.S. Health Trend?
Four very well known doctors, from the popular TV show “The Doctors”, a US syndicated TV show, have shared great insight with us on the topic of the electronic cigarette. The electronic cigarette was featured as one of their top 10 key health trends for 2009.
“The greatest issue with cigarettes is the 500+ other ingredients added, not just the nicotine. Do we recommend this for non-smokers? Of course not, but for current smokers this is the most revolutionary device to date” - Dr. Travis Stork

So How Does The Prado™ Electronic Cigarette Work?

Technology has enabled engineers to create a safer cigarette for everyone. Using the device is simple enough. If you know how to smoke a regular cigarette, then you'll know how to smoke an electronic cigarette. But it's what happens on the inside that makes this breakthrough so important to smokers.
Here's a simplified explanation of the 4 step process that occurs when you smoke an electronic cigarette:
Step #1: A flow sensor will detect that air is traveling through the e-cigarette when the user inhales.

Step #2:Liquid nicotine and flavoring contained in the cartridge goes into the atomization chamber while the Smart Chip controls the amount.

Step #3:The Heating Vapor Coil "atomizes" the liquid creating a rich vapor very similar to smoke. While this vapor is enjoyed, the indicator light is signaled.

Step #4: When the smoker finishes inhaling, the LED in the indicator light fades out. The smoker is free to partake in additional drags on the device.



We are pleased to report that all of this occurs in an extremely safe manner. In fact, it is virtually impossible to unintentionally start a fire with an electronic cigarette, another huge benefit that can potentially save lives.
