Get Your Nicotine Fix Without Smelling like an Ashtray

Sponsored Content:

In today’s world, there’s no reason you should settle for smoking just to satisfy your nicotine cravings. Vaping is much more effective, healthier, and economical than smoking, and best of all, switching to vaping helps you ditch that disgusting ashtray aroma once and for all. Find out how the benefits of ditching your smokes and picking up a vape pen extend far beyond the purely aromatic.

Nobody Likes a Smoker

Whether you’re a long-term smoker or you just bought your first pack yesterday, you’re used to the disgusted stares you receive on the street as soon as you light up a smoke. Nobody likes a smoker; parents are afraid that you might hurt their kids with secondhand smoke, people walking down the street or enjoying a meal outdoors can’t stand the foul aroma you’re producing, and business owners shut their doors as soon as they smell you walking down the street.

While you might think it’s silly, the reality is that smoking harms every single important social relationship in your life. Is it really worth giving up romantic, business, and personal opportunities just to fit in at the smoker’s circle at your school or workplace? Health risks aside, smoking simply has no place in modern society. Vaping, however, is on the rise, and this new trend has completely stolen the “cool” factor that smoking used to monopolize.

Vaping Is Healthier

Not only will vaping help you get friends and make better impressions on first dates, but ditching your cigarettes and picking up a vape rig is also much better for you. According to the UK’s National Health Service (NHS), vaping is 95% safer than smoking. If you’re concerned that your bad habit might land you in health troubles down the road, switching to vaping is the ideal option.

Even the nicotine in vape juice is better for you than the nicotine in cigarettes. From your first cigarette onward, the nicotine in smokes harms your cardiovascular health in a big way. If your first introduction to nicotine is via vaping, however, science suggests that you aren’t at greater risk of cardiovascular disease. Let’s be abundantly clear on this point: Scientific research tells us that using nicotine only harms your heart and arteries if you’ve smoked cigarettes at some point in your life.

Vaping can help you get rid of that persistent cough that follows you around every morning, and it also reduces your risk of cancer. In every way, vaping is the solution that all smokers have been looking for, and while other NRT methods take all the fun out of using nicotine, all the “cool kids” are vaping these days.

Vaping Helps You Quit

Recent estimates tell us that vaping is twice as effective as nicotine gum, patches, or other nicotine replacement therapy (NRT) approaches if you want to quit nicotine altogether. Getting off nicotine might not be your goal in choosing to vape, but if it is, then vaping is the most effective way that science has ever discovered to quit smoking and ditch nicotine.

While you’re stuck with the concentrations of nicotine present in cigarettes, you can fine-tune the amount of nicotine in the vape juice you use to reduce your intake over time. What’s more, vaping is almost identical to smoking from a behavioral psychology standpoint; both habits involve inhaling something into your lungs, and many vape pens look just like cigarettes, which makes it even easier to make the switch.

If you’re sick and tired of your clothes, breath, and car smelling like cigarettes, vaping is the best way to go. Vaping provides you with all the joys of smoking, but this habit doesn’t come at the cost of spewing an odorous cloud wherever you go. Since there’s no plant matter in vape juice, the vapor you exhale doesn’t stick to your clothes, and many types of vape juice actually have added flavors that release a pleasant aroma every time you take a pull at your vape kit of choice.

Ditch the Stench and Protect Your Health

When you’ve been smoking for years, your sense of smell becomes so desensitized that you don’t even realize how much you reek. The people around you, however, are keenly aware of the smell of tobacco that lingers to your face, clothes, and the spaces you occupy, and smoking even dries out your skin and harms your physical appearance.

From your relationships to your mental health to your physical well-being, switching to vaping improves every aspect of your life. You’ll no longer be dubbed “the smoker” when you attend social occasions, and people you’ve just met will ask you about your brand-new vape pen. Switch to vaping today to protect your health while still enjoying nicotine to your heart’s content.
