Muray Laugeson Interview on the Electronic Cigarette

As we mentioned before, we interviewed Murray Laugeson on the electronic cigarette a few days ago. (Click here to read the full e-cigarette interview.)Here is a brief summary of what he told us:

The Risks of Smoking the Electronic Cigarette

The electronic cigarette he has tested is between 2-3 magnitudes safer than that of smoking real cigarettes i.e. between 100 and 1000 times safer than a regular cigarette.

Further Testing Needed Prior to Sale

The electronic cigarette is “safe, efficacious, and possibly effective in stopping smoking.” As it is so much safer than its alternative, regular cigarettes, the doctor argued that further testing prior to the sale should not be needed.

On Delivery of Nicotine to the Lungs

“We find that the e-cigarette nicotine is more likely absorbed in the upper airways rather than in the lungs.”

On Health Benefits

“E-cigarette users should switch completely … as even a single cigarette daily greatly increases the risk of a heart attack.”

“Propylene glycol, the main ingredient of e-cigarette mist, is known to kill airborne flu virus and bacteria, and tends to protect those exposed to it in inhaled air, whereas in contrast smoking tobacco doubles the risk of death in a flu epidemic.”

On E Cigarette Bans

“Most regulators would privately agree the system is absurd.”
