e-cigarettes

E-cigarettes, also known as vapes, are devices that heat a liquid (called e-liquid or vape juice) to produce an aerosol that users inhale. This liquid typically contains nicotine, flavorings, and other chemicals. Unlike traditional cigarettes, e-cigarettes don’t burn tobacco, which reduces some harmful chemicals. People use them as an alternative to smoking or to help quit smoking. However, they still deliver nicotine, which is addictive. E-cigarettes vary in design, nicotine levels, and flavors, making them appealing to different users. While they may be less harmful than cigarettes, long-term health effects are still being studied.
