摘要
Electronic cigarettes is an unregulated commercially available nicotine dispensing tool. E-cigarettes contains nicotine which is a highly toxic chemical that can adversely affect any organ and is also potentially carcinogenic. Nicotine is the route to addiction and industry is using this drug to help people not forget tobacco. If not for nicotine these cigarettes will be useless. Thus it is just another way of keeping nicotine in blood to maintain cigarette smoking habits among existing customers and new way to attract young customers using technology to lure young minds, while serving purpose to deliver nicotine.
