I am four months pregant and my husband recently switched to electronic cigarettes. He claims it's perfectly okay to smoke these right by me even in the house. Is this true?
Suggestion:
E-cigarettes: harmless inhaled or exhaled
No second hand smoke … Second hand mist from an e-cigarette is not smoke at all, and does not contain any substance known to cause death, short or long term, in the quantities found. It becomes invisible within a few seconds, and is not detectable by smell…
Exhaled breath after e-cigarette use has been tested for CO only. No increase in CO was found…
Exhaled breath after e-smoking contains even less nicotine per puff, as much of the nicotine inhaled is absorbed. Similarly, propylene glycol is largely absorbed and little is exhaled…
The e-cigarette does not create side-stream smoke…
Propylene glycol is harmless – it is used in making theatrical fog and as an ingredient in soaps, personal lubricants and intravenous medicines.
No harm found in e-cigarette mist..
