1. Are e-Vapor products safe? Are they safer than tobacco cigarettes?
We claim that e-Vapor products are vastly less harmful than tobacco cigarettes-not that they are “safe” as nothing is without some risk. The FDA, Johns Hopkins, the New England Journal of Medicine along with 45 other completed scientific studies all concluded that e-Vapor products are vastly less harmful and in not a single study has there ever been found any constituent at any level harmful to humans.

2. I heard that e-Vapor products are made in China. Is that an issue?
The majority of e-Vapor components, batteries, coils and e-Liquids are manufactured in China as is true for many, many consumer products. All NICMAXX products are produced in China and all products filled in an FDA registered laboratory using only pharmaceutical grade ingredients. All NICMAXX products come with full warranties and on-site battery replacement. When choosing your e-Vapor products always consider a company who discloses, as does NICMAXX, their ingredients on their packaging and has completed product testing in FDA registered labs.

3. I used to think e-Vapor products were safe but lately I have heard that they contain dangerous chemicals. What is the truth?
As the e-Vapor industry expands sadly the efficacy of our products are eroding the revenues of once dominant pharmaceutical products created as stop smoking drugs and nicotine delivery devices such as nicotine patches and gums. As such, large pharmaceutical companies have made very large donations to health agencies to make slanderous and non-scientifically supported statements designed to scare the public into thinking that e-Vapor products are anything but the beneficial products they have proven to be. Also, as e-Vapor products closely mimic the hand to mouth routine of those smoking tobacco cigarettes (which is a very important aspect of their success) those that first view a person using an e-Vapor product will prejudge the technology as being the same as a tobacco cigarette and assume, falsely, that they must be similar-which in itself is absolutely false. There have been over 45 completed studies of e-Vapor products, including those by the FDA, Johns Hopkins, reported by the New England Journal of Medicine and WebMd. In not a single study has there ever been found any constituent at any level harmful to humans.

4. Isn't nicotine is dangerous?
Anything can be dangerous. Nicotine is a naturally occurring liquid alkaloid. Both caffeine and nicotine are classified as secondary stimulants because they affect the sympathetic nervous system more than the central nervous system. Also, unlike stimulants that are abused for recreational purposes, caffeine and nicotine produce an increased energy level, but not a feeling of intoxication. Nicotine acts as a stimulant mostly in new users, whereas long-term users claim that it relaxes them. Nicotine is indeed addictive, as is any stimulant such as caffeine but e-Vapor products deliver to a user their desired nicotine in a vastly less harmful process than does a tobacco cigarette.

5. What is in an e-Vapor product? Do they contain anti-freeze?
e-Vapor products simply contain five ingredients that have been in domestic households for generations and all of which are approved by the FDA and EPA for inhalation use (although no e-Vapor product is approved by any governmental body). They include 5 ingredients: either/or a combination of propylene glycol and or/vegetable glycerin, glycol, water, varying levels of nicotine and some flavorings to enhance the taste of the vapor generated by this process. The FDA in 2009 produced a press release that claimed that in their testing of an e-Vapor cartridge they found “diethylene glycol” and then surmised that it is an ingredient found in anti-freeze. This created a massive uproar in the e-Vapor industry as 1) diethylene glycol is approved by the FDA for use in food products and 2) the FDA did not claim the levels of found constituents to make claims of found toxins as it is not the detection of a toxin that is important but at what level it is found as the level makes the poison, not its mere detection.
