Tobacco cigarettes were accepted by people and society just a few decades ago, but after medical research was conducted it was found that they do more harm than good. Similarly, the electronic cigarette gained much fame and controversy from the day they were made available to the market. But the question remains: which one is better, the electronic cigarette or the tobacco cigarette?

Traditional cigarettes consist of two parts: paper and a tobacco concoction. The dried tobacco leaves are rolled up with thin paper, and then it can be smoked by someone. The electronic cigarette consists of three parts: the battery, the atomizer, and the mouthpiece. The battery makes the e cigarette functional, the atomizer is the small device used to heat up the liquid solution, and the mouthpiece contains the cartridge that holds the liquid solution.

Tobacco in a cigarette by itself probably would not be so bad, but the fact that other ingredients are combined with it is bad. A single cigarette can contain over 4,000 chemicals, 43 of which are cancer-causing agents, and include tar, carbon monoxide, formaldehyde, and a huge list of other chemicals that you would otherwise not ingest. On the other hand, the liquid solution used in an e cigarette contains about 10 to 20 ingredients. The majority of the solution is comprised of propylene glycol, and the other ingredients can include vinegar, natural and artificial flavoring, and a couple of other ingredients. The only ingredient you should be weary about is nicotine, which can be lethal if ingested in huge doses, but that could also be found in tobacco cigarettes.

Due to the harmful side effects of secondhand smoke, smoking a tobacco cigarette in all public buildings has been banned. Smoking outside of a building? Probably not allowed either, depending on state laws. The e cigarette, as of this time, can be smoked anywhere because there is no dangerous secondhand smoke emitted from the device when you exhale. The smoke-like mist you see coming from the end of the e cigarette is just an odorless vapor that doesn't contain nicotine or any of the chemicals the "smoker" just inhaled.

The clear winner here is the e cigarette, and as beneficial as these devices are, it seems that certain interest groups and even the own FDA have been cautioning against them a little too much. Because it is contains nicotine, it is being classified as a drug delivery system and additional research will have to be conducted to see the dangers posed by these e cigarettes, if any. Perhaps it is not in the interest of individuals that the FDA is concerned with but the interest of those who help to line their pockets. Just speculation.
