  1. Electronic Cigarette Company Launches In New York City

    April 30, 2012 by admin

    New York (PRWEB) July 23, 2009

    Cigana?, a company that provides a healthier alternative to daily cigarette smokers and tobacco users officially launched in New York City. The product provides a safe inhaled dose of nicotine through a wireless device while providing the user with an identical smoking experience to traditional cigarettes.

    In a time when health and economic awareness has never been more prevalent, Cigana? offers a product that addresses all issues simultaneously.


    ????Cigana? is everything smokers have grown to love in a conventional cigarette without the 4,000 plus harmful chemicals.
    ????A one pack a day smoker can spend as much as $ 3500 a year on regular cigarettes. Smoking the equivalent amount of Cigana? electronic cigarettes can save you almost $ 2500 a year.
    ????Cigana? can be used in places that traditional cigarette smoking is banned.????????????????

    Designed for style and pleasure the Cigana? electronic cigarette (e-cig as its common name) is a small, light, battery-powered device that vaporizes nicotine and provides a safe inhaled dose. The vapor that the product emits has no offensive smell and causes no harm to the smoker or those around them.

    Cigana? Electronic Cigarettes have two components:

    Battery: Cigana? Electronic Cigarettes employ a lithium-ion based rechargeable battery to power the heating element (atomizer).

    Cartridge: The disposable device holds the heating element (atomizer). It also contains nicotine in liquid form and flavor essences depending on what the designated flavor of the cartridge is. Flavors include Cherry, Almond, Chocolate, Vanilla, Menthol, Light and Regular Tobacco. Nicotine density ranges from zero – extra high.

    “We are so pleased to provide smokers with this healthy option and play such an important role in their lives. The feedback has been incredible, “said Nicolas Zazza, CEO, Cigana Corp. “Cigana offers many benefits. It’s a safer alternative to smoking, a smarter financial decision, a delicious experience and an overall better choice.”

    Cigana? also offers an additional product called the Cigana USB?. This wired device’s power source is activated when plugged into any USB port. It’s geared towards users who wish to a have a continuous smoking experience at their desk without offending others.

    With more and more smokers choosing Cigana? over traditional cigarettes, the electronic cigarette (or e-cig as it is commonly referred to) has become one of the hottest items of 2009. Cigana? is gearing up to take the market share in an industry that is starting to be saturated by upstart companies. “The market and our clients have spoken to us. Products where quality meets cost-effectiveness is what they are asking for, which is why we will be launching several packages and new products in the next few weeks to meet the needs of a very diverse demographic, “added Zazza.

    About Cigana?

    Cigana? was founded in 2009 by entrepreneurs who felt the electronic cigarette industry was saturated by inferior products. Although, the concept of the electronic cigarette was remarkable, they sought to offer better products, provide outstanding customer service and experiences and strived to consistently improve the technology. After months of research, trials, and testing Cigana? electronic cigarette was born.

  2. The Electronic Cigarette That Saves Money

    April 29, 2012 by admin


    Miami, FL (PRWEB) July 24, 2009

    The Electronic cigarette is gaining popularity, and it’s little wonder why. This battery powered device offer a real alternative to tobacco cigarettes. Because they don’t involve smoking as most know it, they’re not subject to the smoking bans that are going up around the country. What’s more, though, is they don’t pose the health risks the thousands of carcinogens in tobacco cigarettes do, so it is of little surprise that so many smokers are interested in the prospect. With two distinct varieties emerging, though, it can be difficult for some to decide which is right for them. This quick guide may help.

    Many companies make a three-piece electric cigarette that is getting quite a bit of press. The three parts include the cartridge, the atomizer unit, and the battery. The filter cartridge has a small internal piece of plastic to hold the liquid nicotine on a sponge. In many cases, the user would have to put drops of liquid nicotine on it before beginning to smoke. In other cases, there is a need to insert a new cartridge on a fairly frequent basis. The atomizer is typically a steel tubular unit that the filter cartridge fits into. This part screws directly to the battery and will be used on a continuous basis. Unfortunately, that can lead to some clogging problems as well as reduced smoke volume. While they can be replaced, they’re easily one of the costliest parts of this design. The battery is the final part of the design, and they’re rechargeable units that will last a few hours at a time. They’re also often the heaviest part of the unit and add some bulk to the experience overall.

    Green Smoke introduces the two piece electronic cigarette. The advantages here are enormous. It starts with the basic design. Instead of a cartridge and an atomizer, the smoker simply gets a one piece cartridge that has the atomizer built in. There are some real advantages to this type of design. First, because each cartridge has a built-in atomizer, e-smokers won’t experience the clogging and reduced smoke volume they might have with the three piece design. A fresh experience is a must with the electric cigarette, and that’s exactly what these design advantages provide. What’s more is that there isn’t a liquid nicotine solution that must be refilled or dropped on those small cartridges as there is with the other style. The two part style is also much easier to maintain. Green smokers simply screw in a cartridge, and are ready to smoke, even when they are on the go. Compare other electronic cigarette to Green Smoke to learn more about the differences.

    This is what David, a Green Smoke customer had to say about his experience with a 4 part e-cigarette: “When I got it, I almost cried because almost NO smoke came out. Then, BOTH of my atomizers broke within the same weekend. I was always checking the cotton and fluid and making sure that they were good, and the battery was horrible. The lip pieces kept cracking from the continuous fixing that I had to do to it.” After he heard about Green Smoke he decided to give it a try, and this is what he had to say: “I tried green smoke at the testing station, and with the first 2 drags, I was sold… I am telling you from personal experience, green smoke might cost more, but in the end, you will be 100% happy”

    The Bottom Line

    Since the 3 or 4 part e-cigarette takes more work to maintain and use, many smokers end up going back to tobacco. Now, when Green Smoke offers the two part electric cigarette, that takes no maintenance but charging the battery, smokers can remain on electronic cigarette. While the three piece models do tend to be cheaper, in the long run, most smokers either go back to tobacco or make the smarter choice of buying a 2 part electronic cigarette. Electronic cigarettes can make a real difference in the smokers life, but that’s only going to be true if they will get the right model.

  4. Health Experts Praise Intellicig Electronic Cigarette

    April 28, 2012 by admin


    (PRWEB) August 19, 2009

    A smoking alternative has been suggested to those wanting to quit smoking and have a healthier lifestyle.

    Patients have been introduced to the Intellicig electronic cigarettes at Avon Obesity Service (AOS) as a possible tool of choice to use in their battle to quit smoking.

    Intellicig has a mix of just four ingredients ethyl maltol, glycerol, deionised water and nicotine and is the first re-chargeable electronic cigarette to be manufactured in the UK.

    Intellicig contains no carbon monoxide, tobacco, tar or any of the other 4,800 chemicals found in a typical cigarette, making it safer and more pleasant for the smoker and everyone around them.

    Praising the electronic device, Sharon Bates, Bariatric Nurse Specialist at AOS said that the Intellicig has helped a number of her patients cut down their cigarette intake.

    Sharon said: “When patients taste success in their weight loss they then want to squash other areas of their lives they are not happy with – often this includes their smoking habit.”

    “Introducing significant personal life changes relating to food and eating can be very challenging. However, some patients are determined not only to reduce their size but to reduce (or stop) smoking too.”

    “Patients use Intellicig as a means of helping them stop smoking alongside surgery as a method of weight loss,” said Sharon.

    “Quitting isn’t easy at the best of times. Intellicig allows the individual to wean themselves slowly off smoking, allowing them to take control of both smoking and eating behaviours.”

    AOS fully supports the National Campaign to get people more active and lead healthier lifestyles and replacing conventional cigarettes with Intellicig is a good start.

    Sharon added: “Intellicig has positively contributed and supported some of my patients in their drive to stop smoking.”

    “It’s early days but the response has been very positive; one patient who was smoking over 30 ‘conventional’ cigarettes a day now only smokes the Intellicig.”

    “Another patient completely gave up smoking in four weeks and particularly enjoyed smoking the Intellicig indoors whilst fellow smokers trekked outside the hospital in their nighties on a wet and windy day.”

    Health Professionals are only too aware of possible smoking linked medical complications. There is always interest, in all medical specialities, for suitable practical support for those addicted to smoking. Having surgery or other medical treatment is an anxious time without any additional anxieties.

    Intellicig can currently be purchased online direct at http://www.intellicig.com and at selected retail outlets.

    Located in Bristol’s Spire Hospital, AOS specialise in the assessment, operation and post-operative support of people undergoing obesity surgery to assist their weight loss. For further information please visit http://www.avonobesityservice.co.uk.

  5. Electronic Cigarette Known as ecig Helps You Quit Smoking

    April 26, 2012 by admin


    Washington, USA (PRWEB) September 8, 2009

    An electronic cigarette or “e-cigarette”,”e-cig”, is a battery-powered device that provides inhaled doses of nicotine by delivering a vaporized liquid nicotine solution. It is an alternative to smoked tobacco products, such as cigarettes, cigars, or pipes. In addition to nicotine delivery, this vapor also provides a flavor and physical sensation similar to that of inhaled tobacco smoke, while no tobacco, smoke, or combustion is actually involved in its operation.

    An electronic cigarette usually takes the form of some manner of elongated tube, though many are designed to resemble the outward appearance of real smoking products, like cigarettes, cigars, and pipes. A common design is also the “pen-style”, so named for its visual resemblance to a ballpoint pen.

    Most electronic cigarettes are reusable devices with replaceable and refillable parts. A number of disposable electronic cigarettes have also been developed.

    National Health Interview Survey (NHIS) reported in 2006 the statistics of cigarette smokers. In the United States alone, an estimated 26.2 million men (23.5 percent) and 20.9 million women (18.1 percent) are smokers. These people are at higher risk of heart attack and stroke. The latest estimates for persons age 18 and older show:


    ???? Among whites, 23.5 percent of men and 18.8 percent of women smoke (2006).
    ???? Among blacks, 26.1 percent of men and 18.5 percent of women smoke.
    ???? Among Hispanics, 20.1 percent of men and 10.1 percent of women smoke.
    ???? Among non-Hispanic Asians, 16.8 percent of men and 4.6 percent of women smoke.
    ???? Among American Indians/Alaska Natives, 35.6 percent of men and 29.0 percent of women smoke.

    Easy As Step 1,2,3 electronic cigarette corporate is a pioneer in the e-cig industry with strong focus on aiding smokers to quit cigarette comfortably and in sure-fire way.

  6. Professor: No Doubt Electronic Cigarettes Safer than Cigarettes

    March 30, 2012 by admin


    (PRWEB) December 28, 2009

    In an interview with E Cigarette Direct Professor Carl Phillips, associate professor at the University of Alberta, has argued that electronic cigarettes are a valid alternative to cigarettes, stating:

    “I think there’s absolutely no doubt that it is a safer alternative to regular cigarettes.”

    He estimated that electronic cigarettes carried a risk that:

    “…is probably in the order of 99 percent less harmful than smoking.”

    While acknowledging that an FDA study did find traces of carcinogens, he pointed out that banning items based on the quantities found would also mean the FDA would “…have to ban half the foods that are available.”

    The carcinogens, he explained, were also found in FDA approved smoking cessation aids, and indeed in all products that utilised nicotine from tobacco plants.

    According to the professor, much criticism of the electronic cigarettes by public health was due to an all out war on tobacco. He compared it to the problem of drug use, saying that people who are utterly opposed to the use of drugs also oppose needle exchanges, despite the fact that needle exchanges could save many lives.

    The Professor did have some reservations about quality, saying that there was a need for regulation of the production of electronic cigarettes.

    Professor Carl Phillips, who runs the TobaccoHarmReduction.org site, is one of a number of experts in tobacco and Tobacco Harm Reduction who have come out in favour of the device. Other experts who have have spoken out in favour of the electronic cigarette in interviews include Dr Joel Nitzkin, Chair of the Tobacco Control Task Force for the American Association of Public Health Physicians, Professor Siegel, a specialist in preventative medicine and public health, and David Sweanor, a former advisor on tobacco control to the WHO.

    To read the full interview with Professor Carl Phillips visit http://www.ecigarettedirect.co.uk/carl

    E Cigarette Direct is the UK based online retailer of the NJOY electronic cigarette. E Cigarette Direct has a strong interest in promoting research into the electronic cigarette and tobacco harm reduction. More information on the product as well as several technical articles, interviews and information can be found on its website ecigarettedirect.co.uk.

  7. Promising New Results On The Added Safety Of Using SmokeStik Electronic Cigarettes In The Bid To Quit Smoking

    March 29, 2012 by admin

    Burlington, NC (PRWEB) January 9, 2010

    In the summer of 2009 a smoking cessation pilot study was conducted to deliver more understanding to a multi- modal approach to quitting smoking safely and more effectively.

    The aim of the pilot study was to examine overall cessation rates after 12 weeks in a multi-modal cessation program as well as test the safety of electronic cigarettes in terms of propylene glycol levels. This pilot represents a major first step in moving forward with a much larger randomised clinical trial testing whether the combination of multiple interventions has a positive effect on smoking cessation rates.

    The current study combined 3 unique smoking cessation interventions; Varenicline, cognitive-behavioural group therapy and a SmokeStik? electronic cigarette.

    At the end of the program all participants had quit smoking. Qualitative self-report data revealed that all participants found a multi-modal approach helpful in the smoking cessation process, including the use of an electronic cigarette. Smoking a pack a day equals 110,000 hand to mouth repetitions each year. A Smokestik? is a unique electronic cigarette simulation that helps you positively cope with this conditioned behaviour due to the device closely resembling the appearance of a cigarette.

    Biological measures including lab tests conducted each month found negative blood levels of propylene glycol, and pre and post pulmonary function testing showed a marked improvement in participants overall lung functioning.

    These results do suggest that multi-modal approaches may increase the chances of quitting smoking and that SmokeStik’s electronic cigarettes appear safe with respect to the inhalation of propylene glycol. For further information on these trials please visit http://www.smokestik.com.

  10. Millions Are Beating The No-Smoking Bans With Electronic Cigarettes – The Smokeless Alternative

    March 21, 2012 by admin

    Miami, FL (PRWEB) February 15, 2010

    Cyber Cigarettes Inc. is offering a new product, a new idea, a revolutionary advance in science that is destined to change the way people smoke forever. Imagine a smoking alternative that looks, tastes, feels, and acts like a cigarette but doesn’t actually produce any “real” smoke.

    Because no burning is involved, makers say there’s no hazardous cocktail of cancer-causing chemicals and gases like those produced by a regular cigarette. There’s no secondhand smoke, so electronic cigarettes can be used in places where cigarettes are banned, the makers say.

    The way it works is simple. Each Cyber Cigarette has a batteryr and a cartridge filled with liquid nicotine. Upon inhalation, a device is switched on which sends a signal to a heating element inside of the unit, called an “Atomizer”. The Cyber Cigarettes atomizer heats up quickly and vaporizes the liquid nicotine into a fine water-based mist that replicates the look and feel of smoke. This smokeless vapor tastes and smells great! It gives the full effect of smoking real tobacco without harsh tobacco smoke and without second hand irritation.

    From a recent article in the New York Times:

    From FALL RIVER, Mass. – During 34 years of smoking, Carolyn Smeaton has tried countless ways to reduce her three-pack-a-day habit, including a nicotine patch, nicotine gum and prescription drugs. But stop-smoking aids always failed her. Then, having watched a TV infomercial at her home here, Ms. Smeaton tried a Cyber Electronic Cigarette, which claimed to be a less dangerous way to feed her addiction. The battery-powered device she bought online delivered an odorless dose of nicotine and flavoring without cigarette tar or additives, and produced a vapor mist nearly identical in appearance to tobacco smoke. And because they produce no smoke, they can be used in workplaces, restaurants and airports.
