Electronic cigarette: health smoke - The Daily

Into Within days have opened in the area where I live two new outlets of electronic cigarettes a few meters away which confirms the expanding of the phenomenon.

Into the joint position paper of ‘ Italian Association of Hospital Pulmonologists (AIPO) and the Italian Society of Respiratory Medicine ( Simer ) on the implications of health hazards resulting from the use of electronic cigarette reads that the electronic cigarette evaporating a solution of nicotine dissolved in water (dosage varied depending on the brands they more or less risk of addiction that is multiplied if the electronic cigarette is used in combination the cigarette), propylene glycol (irritant of the upper airways), glycerol and flavoring. The World Health Organization (WHO ) argues that to now there is no insufficient evidence to establish the safety of use and the effectiveness of the electronic cigarette as method for the smoking cessation , and recommends to regulate these devices as the medical device or pharmaceutical products and not as a smoking products. “ While the American Thoracic Society (ATS ), in a background paper, clarifies that electronic cigarettes “are not approved by the Fda (Food and Drug Administration) as devices for smoking cessation.

Into But then that device is? About controls the amount of nicotine on? From which countries get refills? Just this week the government is considering to impose a tax on electronic cigarette that has reduced the receipts from the monopoly given that, according to the Consumers Association , are about a million and a half citizens who have switched from cigarettes to electronic. But it would be more useful for the common good, that the Republic under the Constitution should protect, stimulate clinical studies appropriate to clarify the risks to your health before taking the phenomenon as positive for the good of the city because it reduces the use of tobacco?

Into The government, however, interested in “the ncassare ” or rather “save ” as a socio-economic impact of smoking?
