A company in Chennai has introduced the concept of 'e-smoking' with electronic cigarettes based on the principal of 'nicotine replacement therapy'.

The concept has been introduced for the first time in India.

The electronic white stick hit the Chennai market on May 31 that is observed as the 'World No Tobacco Day'.

The e-cigarette looks like a normal cigarette and the white part of the cigarette is the battery. The filter part is the cartridge, which can be replaced. Diluted nicotine is kept in the gadget.

The good news is that puffing these cigarettes does not compromise on the stimulation aspect of smoking, as it lends the same stimulation sans carcinogenic elements.

When the smoker starts inhaling, the atomizing chamber converts the diluted liquid nicotine into vapour, and this satisfies the smoker. The vapour evaporates soon, causing no irritation to people near the smoker.

Sunil Praveen Kumar of SPK Company that has brought the product to India, said: "These cigarettes are called electronic cigarettes or super cig. And, for the first time these have been introduced in Chennai. We are getting this from Hong Kong and this particular product is used to quit smoking using nicotine replacement therapy."

"You would have heard about chewing gums and patches and this is also another form. Well, this gives the smokers the real feeling of cigarette without the dangers of traditional cigarette," Kumar said.

I purchased an electronic cigarette from this chennai based company called steamz. It is a good alternative for the traditional cigarette. This ecigarette does not contain any harmful chemicals used in the traditional cigarette and so there is no danger of lung cancer. You can also enjoy this in no smoking zones as there is no danger of passive smoking.

Hi to all...just to let you know, the device known as e-cigarette has proven to be extremely helpful for smokers who wants to change to a safer and better alternative than traditional tobacco products..we have tested it extensively in Malaysia(a privately funded clinical trial..still ongoing)and discover it's benefits as well as the minor problems associated with the device and the liquid used..right now the only problem we faced is the Govt policies...you can see and read all the good and bad things regarding e-smoking as we called it...thanks...
