I'm writing this article because I've been vaping for about three years and wanted to share my thoughts on the relationship between vaping and tobacco use. I mean, does vaping help you quit smoking cigarettes, or tobacco in general?
And, more importantly, is it possible to use a vaporizer with tobacco ?
Vaporizers and tobacco | The best vaporizers for tobacco
If you just can't stop craving your daily tobacco, here are the best tobacco vaporizers on the market.
[ Attention, for vaporizing I use very dry : this is important, given that the temperatures reached are low and the humidity would make it difficult to create vapor]
Vaporizers and Tobacco | Updated January 2020
Hello everyone, we're back to the topic of vaporizers and tobacco after more than six months since the last update.
In recent months, to completely eliminate cigarettes, I've tried using some vaporizers with loose tobacco (the kind used for rolling cigarettes, so to speak) to test the taste and sensations.
I used my trusty Grasshopper for the test, and I must say the results were satisfactory: the flavor is obviously less pronounced than a cigarette, but still "pleasant."
I achieved the best results with tobacco that tends to be very dry , since the vaporizer has a much harder time with moister tobacco, risking not creating any vapor at all.
So, I haven't completely eliminated tobacco, but smoking it with a vaporizer certainly eliminates the risks associated with combustion ; sorry if that's not enough.
If you intend to buy a vaporizer and use it with both weed and tobacco , you should know that there won't be any problems whatsoever.
Vaporizers and Tobacco | Updated December 2019
Here we go again, folks, a little update on my tobacco vs. vaporizer diary.
It's been about a month since I almost completely quit smoking (I allow myself a couple of cigarettes a week), and I have to say I'm starting to appreciate some positive aspects, thanks to tobacco-free (and combustion-free) vaping.
First of all, I'm no longer out of breath after climbing the two flights of stairs to get home; secondly, I don't know if it's a placebo effect, but I seem to be able to fall asleep faster.
Last but not least, I feel a marked reduction in the discomfort I felt in my teeth when eating or drinking cold foods, something that had been bothering me for a while.
So I'd say I've made some progress; see you next time.
Vaporizer and tobacco | Does it help you quit smoking?
Let's start by saying one thing: a vaporizer isn't a magic wand that will make you quit smoking cigarettes. The most important thing is your determination and patience . That said, a vaporizer can definitely help you along the way, especially if you fit my "profile" of a smoker.
I started smoking cigarettes when I was quite old, around 25; in reality, however, I had been smoking tobacco for many years, as I was (and am) an avid weed user.
However, the idea of smoking cigarettes had never interested me. I don't even remember exactly why, perhaps one evening, I lit up my first one.
The fact is, it became a habit, without me even realizing it. I must say that, during these years of tobacco, the thousands of cigarettes I've smoked haven't had much of a health impact on me: perhaps they've made me a little short of breath, but I'm not a marathon runner, so I'm not that interested.
I haven't kicked tobacco use yet , why have I turned to vaporizers?
Vaporizer and tobacco | A contradiction
Aside from smoking, I don't engage in any other activities that are particularly harmful to my health; in fact, all things considered, I'm a pretty health-conscious person.
For this reason, at a certain point I asked myself: "Is it worth continuing to smoke?"
Considering the effects of smoking, the answer is no.
But what about when a friend rolls a nice, fat one? In those moments, the fact of consuming tobacco, even a little, doesn't bother me.
But then, once I learned about the world of vaporizers, I saw a choice: eliminating cigarettes, and/or tobacco, could become an option .
Happy Steaming!
