Another danger pose by unregulated use of e- cigarettes is that nicotine found in e-cigarettes changes the structure of the brain and lungs which affects the function and responses of the reflexes, increasing ones risk to hypoxia ( Hafstrom O.et.al 2005). Furthermore, in a society that Nursing resources are been stretched and one that depends on the youth for a vibrant tomorrow, it is pertinent that the use and marketing of e-cigarettes should be regulated because young ones are being attracted to smoke e-cigarettes which could further create more medical problems for them. No wonder, health agencies are worried that "nicotine may have a negative impact on adolescent brain development and increase the risk for nicotine addiction that could lead to use of tobacco product" (Schranfnagel

Everyone always wants to be with the latest trend, and as many celebrities and magazine ads have pictures of vaping, electronic cigarettes have become a "trend”. People are largely unaware of the emergency risks of vaping. According to a study by Mitch Zeller he states, “I can say definitely, that nicotine is harmful to a developing teenage brain. And no teenager, no young person. should be using any tobacco or nicotine-containing products”. Unlike true cigarettes, electronic cigarettes do not have

The e-cigarette format, however, does not eliminate concerns regarding public and individual health risks. The World Health Organization has called for e-cigarette usage to be monitored in the same way as more conventional tobacco products,(23) the US FDA is advocating for more research,(24) and there has been a dramatic increase in analyses of the chemical, physiological, psychological and socio-cultural aspects of e-cigarettes.(2-7,9-12,14-21,24-52)

The severity of the health problems that come from smoking e-cigarettes are that we are still unaware of what exactly do these electronic devices contain. At it is stated in the article “Drug Facts: Electronic Cigarettes” that they contain different amounts of nicotine, flavoring, and other unknown chemicals. With these unknown chemicals, we are unaware of what can be the consequences or risks are with long-term consumption of using e-cigs. There are over “400,000 deaths each year in the United States” at a cause from smoking and inhaling nicotine; yet the worst risks are the development of cancer and heart diseases (Drug

A major issues we face today is how un-informed people are on the vaping world also known as e-cigarettes. For that I have chosen an article called America’s vaping revolution: How suspicious should we really be of the e-cigarette craze by Noah Charney posted on Sunday, Dec 7th, 2014. This article is about what e-cigarettes are, where they came from and their uses and effects that they can cause. I’m choosing this article because vaping (smoking E-cigarettes) is something that not a lot of people understand. Some people believe it is bad for you and that it won’t help stop smoking and that it can still cause health issues. Other things include the cost; some say it cost less than cigarettes and should e-cigs not be allowed in certain places. Most people are not informed about vaping on if it’s truly harmful or not they just assume it’s the same as smoking a cigarettes and that’s all it is but over the years it has changed a lot.

Scenario: Matthew Joseph is a Freshman in college and he smokes two packs of cigarettes a week. Matthew’s great-grandfather, who was a solider in WW2 died from lung cancer and his farther as well as his uncle smoke habitually and have trouble breathing from time to time. Matthew says that he is aware of the deadly effects of cigarettes but he cannot stop because it keeps him from smoking marijuana. Matthew works at the local Bucee’s gas station to help pay for is car and phone bills. Matthew’s job does monthly drug testing for marijuana, cocaine, and other types of paraphernalia. Matthew states that “If smoking cigarettes allows me to keep my job and pay my bills then I want stop no matter how dangerous they are.”

An increasing number of physicians and scientists agree that e-cigarettes are a healthier alternative, and they say these products could end a major health problem. The Royal College of Physicians say, "Electronic cigarettes and other nicotine-containing devices offer massive potential to improve public health, by providing smokers with a much safer alternative to tobacco" (Jen Christensen, sec. 4).

In conclusion, more Americans need to be aware of the dangers of e-cigs including their addictive levels of nicotine, and harmful chemicals such as formaldehyde. Thedailybeast addressed the dangerous of e-cigs to not only the user, but other in this statement ,”Outside the risk of exposure to cancer-causing agents, e-cigarettes have been shown to prove dangerous to kids.” This shows that the dangers caused by e-cigs can indirectly harm others, and is posing as a threat to the user's health and can act as a bad influence toward the youth. This is why americans need to relook at how safe e-cigarettes

One of the most controversial debated issue involving e-cigarettes is whether its status is that of a smoking reliever device or a tobacco product. Anyone can get a an e-cigarette online because there has been little government intervention involving the purchases taken place online. Under the Family Smoking Prevention and Tobacco Control Act, the FDA was granted authority to regulate any product that has or derives from tobacco. Since August 2016, the American Lung Association called for the FDA to bring e-cigarettes and other related and unregulated tobacco products under its authority. Given the exponential rise in youth using e-cigarettes in the US, this was especially important during the time, according to the American Lung Association, as it included a 900 percent increase amongst high school students from 2011 to 2015. According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), teens who uses smokeless tobacco products are more likely to smoke cigarettes than nonusers. Due to the easy accessibility of e-cigarettes, they are seen as a novelty product rather than a solution to combat smoking addiction amongst many vaping

Outline Introduction Attention grabber: Cigarettes are one of the leading causes of cancer they contain tar and other toxins.

As stated by Eleanor Roosevelt, “One 's philosophy is not best expressed in words; it is expressed in the choices one makes... and the choices we make are ultimately our responsibility.” Everybody has a myriad choices in life. Some choices are better than others, and some are the worst choices one could have possibly chosen. The choices of one may work in one’s favor, or one’s choices may work in contrariety of one’s goals altogether. Electronic cigarettes, also called e-cigarettes or e-cigs, are an alternative choice to smoking actual cigarettes. Whether e-cigarettes should be regulated is a controversial topic among the people of the world today. A few people withhold the beliefs that electronic cigarettes should not be regulated as regular cigarettes are. It is possible that they believe that the regulation will lead to the prohibition or cease of smoking wholly. However, speaking as a candor person, one may say that these people are blind to the potential harms that the lack of regulation could create and that the lack of regulation may actually be causing electronic cigarettes to work in opposition of the purpose they are mostly used for. E-cigarettes are proven to not to have the same detrimental effects as regular cigarettes, however they are potently harmful, with different and serious consequences. The regulations would not be banning electronic cigarettes; the regulations are working to protect the health and well-being of everyone.

It is known the fact that habit is quite a strong phenomenon in human life. There are many habits that are quite easy to get, it can be done even accidentally. However, it can be difficult to break a habit. As far as breaking the habit can be quite difficult, it is common practice to try not to destroy the habit at all but change it in some more positive way. Nowadays people see such positive way in e-cigarettes as alternatives to the traditional tobacco cigarettes. A popularity of e-cigarettes and their widespread image as a harmless alternative to the traditional tobacco cigarettes could be the reason why there is quite a high number of studies which consider the harmfulness of the e-cigarettes. However, even though the studies showed that

Nicotine use is a leading preventable cause of death in the world, directly and indirectly responsible for 440,000 deaths per year. The health problems that result in tobacco use tally an annual of $75 billion in direct medical costs (Slovic 36). That money spent on medical problems for smokers should be used to pay for more important things in our society such as schools, libraries, childcare, etc.

E-cigarette is believed to greatly reduce on the health effects associated with tobacco smoking. However, e-cigarette has been criticized as a leading cause of smoking among the youth due to its flavor as well as its novel appearance and campaigns. It is also believed to pose some health risks.
