What is e-Liquid and Where to Get It?

If you are finding it difficult to quit smoking, try out e-cigarettes. These cigarettes provide you with the same sensation that you experience when you inhale a traditional cigarette, except that you do not get any of the health problems that can happen with a traditional cigarette.

e-cigarettes are easy-to-use and you will find them to be a convenient alternative to traditional cigarettes. They come in a variety of styles and sizes. You do not get any teeth stain or smell on your hands or clothes by using them. The air around you is not polluted and you do not release any toxins into the atmosphere. This makes the environment around you to be safe for others as well.

An electronic cigarette is fuelled by nicotine solution which is called e-liquid. It is easy-to-use. Just press a button to light up the heating unit that vaporizes the liquid inside the cigarette. The nicotine solution is essentially made up of nicotine liquid, propylene glycol or vegetable glycerin, flavoring and water. Vegetable Glycerin is a safer alternative to Propylene Glycol.

The nicotine concentration comes in varying ranges. You can find nicotine solutions with nicotine concentrations of 20–54 mg/ml, 16–18 mg/ml, 10–14 mg/ml and 6–8 mg/ml nicotine levels. You can also find nicotine solutions with no nicotine at all. Such e-liquid solutions contain vanilla, caramel and coffee. Actually, there are e-liquid solutions with the same flavor as well known brands such as Marlboro and Camel. You can also find e-liquid solutions coming in many flavors such as vanilla, almond, chocolate, mint, cherry, banana, peach and so on.

The advantage in e-liquid is that it des not have tar, carbon monoxide and the other 4000+ ingredients that cause cancer. There is no problem of stained finger or teeth. The air around you is not polluted by cigarette smoke. Those starting out with using e-cigarettes can at first opt for a cigarette with higher percentage of nicotine and then gradually bring down the nicotine percentage, up to a point where they use e-liquid solutions with zero nicotine percentage.  When you come to the point of using zero nicotine solution, you have finally come off having cigarettes altogether.

It is easy-to-find e-liquid cartridges in the market. You can get them in clubs, libraries, offices, airports, and so on. If your current e-liquid cartridge is depleted, you can refill the solution yourself, else you can opt for another pre-filled cartridge. Generally smokers prefer e-liquids that give off a thick vapor, similar to that of traditional tobacco. Thick vapor comes from e-liquids that have vegetable glycerin.  E-liquids with propylene glycol, on the other hand, give off thinner vapor. However, when it comes to flavoring, only e-liquid with propylene glycol can give off a stronger flavor.
