Wondering whether to switch to an electronic cigarette? Don't know how and where to start? Don't know how the transition will feel? In this article, we'll give you some tips that will help you make it easier and understand what the process involves.

So, did you buy an electronic cigarette or are you thinking about purchasing one and starting to vape?

We have collected some things for you to know:

The advantages of vaping are mainly the fact that there is no combustion process and we do not absorb the toxic chemicals that are emitted when smoking tobacco. Also, no unpleasant odors remain on hands, clothes, and furniture. There is no passive evaporation, so you can also vape at home or in the office.

Switching from smoking to vaping

Many people expect to make an immediate and seamless transition from smoking to vaping, but that's not always the case. Of course, everyone is different and the experience will be different for everyone. Some people have thrown away their last pack of cigarettes, switched to an e-cigarette and had no difficulty. But for some people, the transition is not immediate.

We start by combining the two things, and the process can take several weeks or months, gradually reducing the amount of cigarettes and using e-cigarettes more. For example, when we don't have the energy to go outside for a cigarette or when we don't feel a very strong need.

At some point, the smoking and smell become less and less pleasant and you naturally become more drawn to the electronic cigarette until you stop smoking completely.

It is important to note that the process requires some learning, so you should not give up early. It may take you time to find the right nicotine level that meets your needs, the specific device that will give the best response, and the flavors that you like and that will help you not want to go back to smoking.

Physical changes following the transition from smoking to vaping

When you stop smoking and switch to vaping, your sense of smell and taste returns, lung function improves, you stop smelling like cigarettes, and more.

Some people may initially experience a cough or sore throat, which are symptoms of tobacco withdrawal as well as the body's adaptation to the e-cigarette. These symptoms, if they occur, usually go away on their own within a few days or weeks.

Another effect of switching to an electronic cigarette is the money savings. Although the initial expense seems high because the cost of the device ranges from about 100 to about 500 shekels, it is a one-time expense.

In the long run, spending on liquids and coils is significantly lower than the average spending on a cigarette and even rolling tobacco.

So if you are thinking about switching to vaping, it is very important and even recommended to buy the vaping device from a professional e-cigarette store that works with well-known and leading brands. We know of one, but in order not to be pretentious, we will not point to it :)
