FDA Trying to Ban E Cig Research

The FDA has attempted to ban the electronic cigarette. They’ve attempted to define the e cig as a drug delivery device and are continuing to seize imports of e-cigarettes.

Now Spike Babaian, the President of the National Vapers’ Club, a consumers’ organisation set up to protect and promote the product, claims the FDA are also blocking research into the device.

In an interview with the Smoker’s Angel magazine, Mr. Babaian said that the FDA had twice blocked research into the electronic cigarette on the basis that the cigarette was a drug delivery device even after an American judge had ruled that the electronic cigarette was not a drug delivery device.

Mr. Babaian speculated that the motivation for blocking the research might be financial, saying:

“The only thing that I can think of is that they stand to lose money if we do it without the FDA. If this research were to be done and funded through the FDA, they’ve already admitted they would cost millions and millions of dollars. We’re able to do the study, we proceeded with the proposal with a quote of $76,000 and I believe that we can complete this study for less than a hundred thousand dollars if we don’t have to go through the FDA.”

According to scientists such as Professor Carl Phillips, the electronic cigarette is between one hundred and one thousand times safer than tobacco cigarettes.

What do you think? Is the FDA really trying to block research into the e-cigarette because it’s a threat to big tobacco, or are their actions an attempt to protect public health?

E Cigs are Better than Tobacco

Tobacco smoke is nasty and it seems like it tries to ruin everything it touches. It sticks to your clothes, your hair, your car upholstery and your furniture. If you go to a bar that allows smoking you reek when you get home. If you smoke at home you make your entire house stink. If you smoke in your car you’ll never get the smell out and your windows will get covered in a sticky film. But, the vapor from e cigarettes doesn’t do any of that.

Vapor from ecigs is water based and is gone in seconds. It doesn’t stink or ruin fabric or stick to anything. Ecigs don’t produce messy ashes or pose a fire hazard.  You can even get flavored ecig cartridges so you don’t even have to have a tobacco cigarette taste.

The electronic cigarette is one of the hottest new products on the market and smokers are flocking to them as a tobacco alternative. Their ability to offer a safer alternative to smoking and help save the lives of millions of smokers is staggering. If you are a smoker you should try the Luci eCig starter kit today.
