Smoking combustible cigarettes is a harmful, addictive habit that has many adverse effects on the mind and body, especially for pregnant women. Though it’s becoming far less common to see people with a cigarette in hand alongside a growing tummy, it isn’t completely nonexistent. While relishing in the anticipation of parenthood may be enough for some women to quit cold turkey, others rely on the use of an innovative e-cig starter kit to help manage their combustible craving. While any type of nicotine-delivery to the body has the potential to cause harm to the unborn infant, the toxins found in traditional cigarettes outweigh e-cigs so greatly that The Royal College of Midwives (RCOM) is encouraging expecting mothers to use e-cigs to quit smoking

Vaping is better during pregnancy

For most people who smoke, quitting cold turkey isn’t a viable option leading to a successful transition. In fact, a small number of the smoking population is able to manage the addiction on their own and instead they rely on nicotine replacement therapies, such as an e-cig starter kit, to help them kick the cravings. While RCOM acknowledges that e-liquid contains nicotine strengths that can be harmful to a developing baby, the levels are “far lower” than that of tobacco smoke. The truth is that smoking significantly increases the risk of miscarriage, stillbirth, sudden infant death and birth abnormalities, while also damaging the mother’s health with maternal risks, such as placenta issues and eclampsia. 

What is the RCOM’s position

Most families want to give their baby the best chance in life, that’s part of the reason that the RCOM supports this health-conscious change. Since one in ten women in England are smokers at the time they give birth, there has never been a more crucial time to address the issue. 

If a pregnant woman who has been smoking chooses to use an e-cigarette (vaping) and it helps her to quit smoking and stay smokefree, she should be supported to do so,” explained an RCOM media representative. 

Why does RCOM support vaping?

While quitting all forms of nicotine-delivery is the absolute best way to protect a baby’s development, there are ways that vaping can benefit women who can’t overcome their smoking routine.

  • Vaping offers nicotine strength variations that cater to different smoking habits.
  • Vaping offers a safer way to breastfeed
  • Vaping offers an option to maintain a smoke free environment and lifestyle.
  • E-cigs contain safer ingredients than the toxic contents of a combustible cigarette. 

We need to be doing all we can to support women and their families to stop smoking. Vaping should continue if it is helpful to quitting smoking and staying smoke free.

What are your reasons to quit smoking?

e-cigarette starter kit

There are so many reasons that people quit smoking — financial, health-related and for the ones they love — but maintaining a smoke-free lifestyle is far more manageable if one of those reasons to quit is for yourself. The truth is that once the novelty of combustible cigarettes becomes less of social activity and more of your everyday behavior, most people are pushed to quit in order to regain control of their lives. However, those who smoke have to weigh their drive to make a change against their addiction to nicotine and the stress of withdrawal if they want to gain the confidence to take action. 

So, whether you’re an ex-smoker who has successfully taken the plunge and started using an e-cigarette starter kit or you’re on the fence about preparing for your quit date, here are some incentives that may help you to throw out your combustible cigarettes for good. 

Quit for your finances 

The cost of a pack of combustible cigarettes adds up quickly. In fact, if you smoke a pack a day, the average amount that you would spend per week would be about $45 (2018 national average price was $6.35 plus tax) and depending on where you live, that cost could be much more. So, it’s easy to see how the financial rewards of quitting are huge, allowing you to begin by growing your savings and also save some money on your insurance premiums.

Quit for your health 

You can look forward to changes in your health from the moment you stop smoking. Illnesses, such as cancer, heart attacks, strokes, lung disease and even vision problems, like cataracts, can become a lowered risk to your health once you remove combustible cigarettes from the equation. Your body will also begin to breathe easier, coughing less as the mucus slowly clears out from your lungs. Within as little as 20 minutes your body will start to make these changes and it will continue to heal over time, adding years onto your life. 

Quit for your loved ones 

Secondhand smoke harms those around you, particularly young children. So, if you’re looking for an important reason to quit, do it for your loved ones. Not only does quitting decrease the risk to your friends and family’s health — allergies, asthma and bronchitis — but it also sets a good example for your children or grandchildren who’re still very impressionable. 

Quit for yourself 

Freeing yourself from the stronghold of combustible cigarettes will allow you to feel more energized, more relaxed and more in control of your life. If you quit, you can tell yourself that you’re proud and focused and allow yourself to work on new challenges. If you’re finding that you’re struggling with the setbacks of nicotine withdrawal, try using an e-cigarette starter kit to curb the cravings, allowing you to vape the nicotine concentration level that your body needs, while overcoming your tobacco dependency. That way once you’re feeling comfortable, you can slowly decrease your nicotine strength and reap the rewards of nicotine-free vaping.

A beginners guide to menthol

menthol e-cig starter kit

Since it’s widely known that most people who vape have a history of smoking, it only makes sense that when they make their transition, they shift to vaping a flavor that’s familiar, like the chilling taste of menthol. Just like how a menthol cigarette reduces the harshness of the smoke, a menthol e-cig is a smooth substitute, possessing the same delicious, cooling effects that soothe the vaper’s mouth and throat. So, if you once enjoyed the taste of menthols, here’s your guide to vaping with a menthol e-cig starter kit

What’s the difference between mint and menthol?

It isn’t uncommon for the words mint and menthol to become interchanged when people are conversing, however, keep in mind that while these two words get tossed around in a substitute for one another, they actually have two different meanings. 

The word “mint” should be used when the flavor is being described, whereas the word “menthol” is used to express the cooling sensation. There are many e-liquids on the market that tastefully mimic the refreshing infusion of mint, while there are also bold, menthol e-cig starter kits featuring cartomizers that embody a frosted, almost air-cool tingle when inhaled. Though most brands on the market manufacture products to exhibit the taste and aroma of a plain mint flavor, it isn’t uncommon for e-juices to be labeled as “mentholated”, meaning that the flavor may be tobacco, fruit or candy-inspired, but it also contains cooling menthol to enhance the effects of the extract. 

How do you know if you will like menthol?

Just like any flavor, menthol is an acquired taste. While some vapers find it to be rather strong, others indulge in the cooling sensation, seeking out the intense, soothing aftertaste. Though the power of menthol can offer a combined, cooling tartness in a number of ways — a tickle on the tip of your tongue, a slight chill around the mouth, a coolness in the nose or throat — the best means of finding out if you’re a fan is to grab yourself a menthol e-cig starter kit and test it out on your senses. 

Logic Power Series Menthol E-cig Starter Kit 

This versatile e-cig kit comes with everything you need to enjoy your vaping experience. With a state-of-the-art battery allowing the device to produce thick, rich vapor and premium, menthol cartomizers that pack a punch in terms of flavor, you’ll be well equipped for a smooth vaping experience.

That being said since menthols are the perfect approach to summer vaping, experience summertime to the fullest with some Logic technology and some fresh, cool flavor.

What are the advantages of vaping JUUL compatible pods with higher nicotine?

Man vaping JUUL Compatible Pods while sitting at the bench outside

JUUL compatible pods

It has now been over a decade since electronic cigarettes first delivered nicotine to ex-smokers without the added chemicals associated with combustibles. That said, just like most technologies, e-cigs have come a long way since then. Monumental strides have been taken to craft e-liquids with salt nicotine in order to appeal to those who need a wider assortment of concentration levels. While this a relatively new craze for the vaping community, there is an endless list of prospective benefits.  

Higher nicotine e-liquids offer a bolder flavor

Many people describe the taste of nicotine as a strong, peppery flavor, so, naturally, in order to mask the intensity of higher nicotine concentrations, more tasty flavorings may be added to the extracts in order to balance out the mixture. In turn, this is incredibly beneficial if the vaper desires a more heightened experience with their e-cig. So, in order to adhere to the industry’s demand for higher levels of nicotine, the brand EonSmoke has crafted JUUL compatible pods with 6% salt nicotine and EonSmoke Disposable electronic cigarettes with 6.8% salt nicotine a natural, more stable form of nicotine that doesn’t impart a harsh flavor, but rather a profound, bold piquancy to encourage more vapers to indulge in the savories of each delicious extract. 

Higher nicotine e-liquids offer a smooth throat hit 

The throat hit is one of the most important elements of your vaping experience, especially if you’re an ex-smoker. In fact, most vapers want their throat hit to be strong enough to mimic the satisfaction of combustible cigarettes, but smooth enough that it doesn’t cause any irritation. So, if you’re hoping to achieve the ultimate, full-bodied vape then you may benefit from the punchy high-strength of the salt nicotine e-liquid within EonSmoke’s JUUL compatible pods. With an array of 16 delicious flavors available at a satisfying nicotine strength, it’s easy to tailor your experience to match your vaping needs. 

Higher nicotine e-liquids help with your transition

Often smokers have problems making the transition to vaping because they’re unable to find the appropriate nicotine level to help with the effects of nicotine withdrawal. So, for those heavy smokers who’re wanting to make the switch, it’s worth starting your journey with EonSmoke’s JUUL compatible pods and when you’re ready, slowly lowering your nicotine strength at a pace that meets your needs.

Research suggests that a growing number of cancer patients are using e-cigs

Research Scientist showing an e-cigarette

Logic e-cig starter kit

Regardless of how the media chooses to shape the perception of electronic cigarettes, it’s still one of the top nicotine replacement therapies used by current and former cancer patients to overcome their tobacco and nicotine dependencies. With more seasoned smokers having trouble making the shift, studies suggest that those who have undergone their cancer treatment at a younger age are more likely to use e-cig starter kits. Needless to say, although conventional smoking rates have remained popular within this medical cohort, the prevalence of e-cigarette use has shifted. It’s a new area, so let’s take a look at the controversy and find out about this recent medical center news release. 

The study

A study that followed 13,274 patients with a self-reported cancer diagnosis found that roughly one in 10 respondents reported having used e-cigarettes either during or after their treatment. The study was conducted through the use of a survey that was answered by participants from 2014 to 2017 and later published in 2019 by the journal, JAMA Oncology. The findings determined that most of the patients belonged to a cohort of former smokers and those who were 50 and under were much more likely to use e-cigarettes. 

The objective

The analysis was conducted in order to better understand how the e-cigarette trend has slowly replaced the use of conventional cigarettes among current or former cancer patients. Researchers from the CDC’s National Health Interview Survey wanted to see the significance of a large cohort of people in order to determine if age played a role in e-cigarette use. 

What was the result?

The study found that electronic cigarette uses among cancer patients and survivors had increased in recent years, whereas conventional smoking rates had remained stable with one in 10 survey respondents reporting that they had or still do use their e-cig starter kits. Here are some other main findings of the study:

  • The median age of participants who had used/are using e-cigs was 68. 
  • The ages of the participants ranged between 18 and 85.
  • 26.8% of participants under 50 tried/still use e-cig starter kits whereas those who are 50+ are only at 8%. 
  • Conventional cigarette use has not dropped, even with the use of e-cigs.

How has vaping given you more independence?

 Logic vape pen

Tomorrow is the Fourth of July! So, why not expand your gratitude by celebrating something else that can enable you to feel just as independent? Yes, we’re talking about proclaiming your love for e-cigs! While combustible cigarettes have a stronghold on smokers, bending their willpower to the demands of tobacco and nicotine, vapers are more accustomed to their own sovereignty, choosing their flavors and nicotine concentration levels while also enjoying the freedom to have a flexible quitting date. So, if you want to celebrate Independence Day in style this year, perhaps a state-of-the-art Logic vape pen might be the celebratory accessory you’ve been looking for.

With freedom comes more flavors

Both the Logic Pro Advanced Vapor System and the Logic Power Series possess so many delicious flavor varieties. While traditional cigarettes can only offer vigorous tobaccos and cool menthols, e-cigarettes have the power to present an endless array of signature extracts that cater to the unique palettes of each vaper. While the Logic vape pen sells cartomizers that mimic the taste of tobacco and menthol, there’s also a signature cherry essence that offers a tasty, sweet alternative. More daring vapers can upgrade to an EonSmoke JUUL compatible device which provides 16 adventuresome flavors like pineapple, mango and silky strawberry.  

Being independent of tobacco means more nicotine choices

The nicotine levels within combustible cigarettes don’t offer much wiggle room to smokers who’re looking to decrease their nicotine intake. That’s why it’s so advantageous to vape. Ex-smokers who’re used to enjoying light cigarettes or those who only have a few combustibles a day could benefit from transitioning to a Logic vape pen with a 1.6% or 1.8% nicotine strength. If their habits require something a little stronger, there are e-cigs with a 2.4% nicotine strength and even convenient disposables that are offered in a 3.5% nicotine concentration level. Heavy ex-smokers should gravitate towards products like EonSmoke JUUL Compatible Pods which are sold in an enticingly high 6% salt nicotine strength.

Your quit date is your choice   

It can be difficult for your body to adjust to a life without combustible cigarettes, which is why very few ex-smokers successfully quit by going cold turkey. So, why not try managing your nicotine withdrawal by using an e-cig? These electronic nicotine systems give vapers the power to have greater freedom, offering them a safer method of nicotine delivery that can be decreased over time. This allows them to select a date in the distant future and slowly wean their nicotine intake to a point where e-cigs may no longer be required. There’s no need to shock your body when you have a Logic vape products or EonSmoke JUUL Compatible pods and devices to help with your tobacco and nicotine cravings.

What is it like to vape JUUL compatible pods with nicotine salts?

JUUL compatible pods

 JUUL compatible pods

EonSmoke JUUL compatible pods have taken the world by storm with their growing popularity in the e-cig market. These nifty flavor capsules are quickly becoming the top choice of many beginners and seasoned vapers due to their intuitive and comfortable design, modern, versatile technology and the endless options of intriguingly flavorful, budget-friendly pods that are compatible and incredibly comparable to the renowned pods manufactured for JUUL labs. The best part is that rather than vaping solutions that contain freebase nicotine, EonSmoke’s JUUL compatible pods are crafted using nicotine salts which are both advantageous and beneficial to the vaper. Why, do you ask? 

There’s a smoother vaping experience

Nicotine salt-based solutions have the power to offer users a much smoother vaping experience. In fact, this natural nicotine form vaporizes at a higher temperature than traditional nicotine which means that it can be offered in higher concentrations, giving heavy ex-smokers a huge advantage when they’re attempting to switch from combustible cigarettes to e-cigs. Arguably the most efficient way to deliver nicotine throughout your body, nicotine salts are soothing and palatable because they contain the ingredient, Benzoic Acid — an additive that lowers the pH levels within nicotine salts, exhibiting mild, more enjoyable puffs. 

Better flavor 

EonSmoke’s JUUL compatible pods are so widely popular among vapers because they possess bolder, more vibrant flavors — like citrus, cucumber and pink lemonade that closely mimic their names. Since freebase nicotine is more acidic than nicotine salts, juices that contain traditional nicotine are often harsher on the throat as the nicotine concentration level within the substance increases. However, nicotine salt-based solutions have the ability to counteract this sensation enabling ex-smokers to fulfill their nicotine dependency using an e-liquid that satisfies their cravings.  

The perfect option for beginner vapers

The majority of people who’re vaping are ex-smokers with a tobacco or nicotine dependency. Long-time smokers who’re making a transition to vaping need a product that’s easy-to-use and comparable to combustible cigarettes. That’s why the EonSmoke’s JUUL compatible device and EonSmoke JUUL compatible pods are such a great investment for transformative smokers. Moreover, their design is so simplistic! Once a flavor pod has been vaped to empty, it can easily be popped off of the device and replaced by a new one. The best part is that vapers don’t even have to worry about the hassle of filling up e-liquid tanks, because all of the EonSmoke JUUL compatible pods come ready-to-vape in pre-filled capsules that are offered in 16 delicious flavors in an intense 6% nicotine strength.

Many U.S. youth are living in cigarette-friendly homes

EonSmoke Disposable Electronic Cigarettes

Even with widespread knowledge pertaining to how combustible cigarettes impact the development of youth, along with notable research suggesting various health concerns throughout adulthood, there is still a high percentage of Americans who have built their living conditions around their need for tobacco and nicotine. That being said, since there’s no risk-free level of secondhand smoke exposure, children who live in cigarette-friendly homes are at a greater risk for an assortment of hazardous health problems.

Secondhand health effects in children

Exposure to secondhand smoke can cause the following health problems in children:

  • Ear infections
  • Frequent and severe asthma attacks
  • Multiple respiratory problems (ex. coughing, sneezing and shortness in breath)
  • Respiratory infections (ex. bronchitis and pneumonia)
  • Greater risk for sudden infant death syndrome (SIDS)

What do statistics suggest?

While there are and have always been various studies fluctuating the scale, these statistics say it all:

  • About 58 million nonsmokers in the U.S. are exposed to secondhand smoke
  • Children who live in apartments or condos have 45% higher cotinine levels (passive tobacco smoke in their blood, saliva and urine)
  • 2 out of every 5 children (3 to 11 years in age) are exposed to secondhand smoke regularly
  • About 1 in 3 nonsmokers who live in a rental unit are exposed to secondhand smoke

What does this mean?

Although cigarette use in the home and in cars has decreased when compared to prior decades, it’s still a large, nationwide problem, especially when addressing the effects it can have on the health of children. Whether you’re a smoker, a renter, a multi-household dweller or simply someone who invites over guests who smoke, it’s your job to promote child health by decreasing exposure to environmental tobacco smoke. Here’s how:

  • Quit smoking if you’re not already a nonsmoker
  • Do not allow anyone to smoke in or around your home
  • Do not allow anyone to smoke in or around your car
  • Ensure that your child’s daycare or school is tobacco-free
  • Keep your kids away from smoking areas.
  • Try using an e-cig as a safer option (ex. EonSmoke Disposable Electronic Cigarettes are prefilled to prevent spillage)

Not only are children at a higher risk when exposed to secondhand smoke, but they’re also more likely to try smoking themselves.
