We all know that smoking isn’t that great for our health, and we all (should) know that the e-cigarette is essentially a replacement for smoking, rather than a method of quitting. My personal experience, however, shows that even without trying, e-smoking is effective in reducing the number of cigarettes I smoke, and judging by the experiences of others, this is clearly the likely outcome.

What then can you look forward to on taking up e-smoking as an alternative?

• In 20 minutes - your blood pressure will return to normal
• In 8 hours - The carbon monoxide (a toxic gas) levels in your blood stream will drop by half, and oxygen levels will return to normal
• In 48 hours - Your chance of having a heart attack will begin its long decline. All nicotine will have left your body (if you’re e-smoking 0% cartridges or liquid). Your sense of taste and smell will return to a normal level
• In 72 hours - Your bronchial tubes will relax, and your overall energy level will rise
• In 2 weeks - Your circulation will increase, and it will continue to improve for the next 10 weeks
• In 3-9 months - Coughs, wheezing and breathing problems will dissapate as your lung capacity improves by 10%
• In 1 year - Your risk of having a heart attack will have now dropped by half
• In 5 years - Your risk of having a stroke returns to that of a non-smoker
• In 10 years - Your risk of lung cancer will have returned to that of a non-smoker
• In 15 years - Your risk of heart attack will have returned to that of a non-smoker
