¿Saben? Es cierto todo lo que han dicho al respecto pero tambien estoy con Jchen al decir que esto es una decisión personal. Cuando el gobierno comienza a dictar lo que puedes o no puedes hacer, entonces hay algo malo en eso.

En ningun momento estoy diciendo que el fumar es bueno lo que estoy diciendo es que las personas tienen el derecho a decidir por si mismo.

Cuando el gobierno decide que el fumar es nocivo para la salud y que debe haber alguna forma de regular el uso del tabaco, ¿porqué no cierra las companías que fabrican los cigarrillos asi como lo hace con los fabricantes de drogas?

Hay companías farmacéuticas que tienen que descontinuar algun medicamento cuando se comprueba que causa problemas de salud, ¿no es eso lo que está pasando con el tabaco?

Hay un refrán en español que dice........
*** Muriendose el perro, se acabó la rabia *********

Al no haber cigarrillos ni fabricantes de cigarrillos, entonces ya no hay problema.

Yes, exactly it was the that I meant before, future, I didn't write well the word.

I'm sorry so much.


Therefore if you are a smoker the most appropriate is that you will have a illness in a future, because as you know the cigarette is not good for the lungs and less for people who is around of you.

Yeah Elaina, but anyhow I don't believe that the cigarette's company disappear in a future near, because of those company depending a lot people speaking economic way, therefore I don't believe that someday it leaves to be sold in the street, then the that people leaves to smoke is only the capacity of person if has a voluntary strong, because if the person hasn't voluntary therefore this person will never leave to smoke in his life and so, his's has the expectation to has a severe illness.

Isn't that the thinking for a drug addict? Both are addictions. Therefore treat it as such. It takes a lot more than just saying, okay I'll give it up! Please don't misinterpret what I am saying. I think it is bad to smoke, but I also believe people have a free will.

Not, I won't misinterpret your commentary, but I believe that you can enter in perception in the that people shouldn't smoke, but well as it such, as you have said, everyone tend to be free.

Perhaps debo take up fumar again? Dejé aproximadamente 6.5 hace años, fui diagnosed con essential familial tremors 14 years ago - it has most likely become Parkinson's pero no tengo gone in to get rediagnosed. Cuando fumé, no tengo tremors. Tambien, mosquitos siempre bothered me!

they're supposed to be healthier :P You know, no addiction or whatever. Let me find a picture for you




Electronic Cigarette

Quote:
An electronic cigarette or "e-cigarette" is a battery-powered device that provides inhaled doses of nicotine by heating a nicotine-chemical solution into a vapor. It is an alternative to smoked tobacco products, such as cigarettes, cigars, or pipes. In addition to nicotine delivery, this vapor also provides a flavor and physical sensation similar to that of inhaled tobacco smoke, while no tobacco, smoke, or combustion is actually involved in its operation.
An electronic cigarette usually takes the form of some manner of elongated tube, though many are designed to resemble the outward appearance of real smoking products, like cigarettes, cigars, and pipes. A common design is also the "pen-style", so named for its visual resemblance to a ballpoint pen.

Doesn't really sound healthier than a regular cigarette though

Never I didn't hear before about those cigarettes, I think that it should be the same, because finally it's a cigarette and never it will leave to be bad for the body.

They aren't healthier, in my opinion. The people that make them just want more people to smoke so they can make lots of money

Well, the medicines are "drugs" too. And I can assure that a lot of smokers do it for pleasure, as you eat a chocolate cake (that is a lot worst than some cigarettes), and not thinking off dying sooner.

En serio los mál efectos de fumar son más dañinos que sus beneficios hasta para la gente que tiemble. En el caso de parkinson's, los buenos efectos de tobaco son limitados, pero si tiene un ataque de tembledera un cigarillo sin filtro (tipo Camel ayuda algunos pacientes). Vives en el norte. Entonces la temporada de insectos es corto. Es mejor aguantarlos hasta otoño que ya llegó. Es mejor hablar con el médico para ver lo que recomenda él o ella.
