The Doctors TV show named electronic cigarettes #9 in their Top ten Health Trends for 2009 giving them a particularly positive review in an all new episode on Wednesday last week. The exciting thing I spotted was all the doctors on television show gave the electronic cigarettes and an electrical cigar a try. They each took many drags, with the exception of Dr Lisa Masterson.
Not one of the Doctors on The Doctors TV show is a smoker, but they
actually did try the devices. I find that many of the people I converse
with ( not doctors by any means ) are frightened to even try taking a
drag off one of the cartridges that contains zero nicotine. If the
doctors on The Doctors Television show did not hesitate to take some
puffs then does this mean the doctors on television show aren't anxious
about electronic cigarettes influencing their health? Now the doctors
did give an electronic cigarette to a smoker and let her try it before
filming the show and then invited her into the studio audience to give
her viewpoint. The smoker said that, “she would recommend them.”
Ultimately , the last exciting thing that stuck out in The Doctors'
positive review was Dr Travis Stork informing the audience the devices
aren't FDA licensed yet, but he announced, and I quote, " I am sure
they will be soon."
Keep in mind that regular cigarettes are not FDA approved, and will
never be. So I am always reminding people of this fact whenever they
suggest that electronic cigarettes need to be FDA authorized to be
legally sold in the U.S.A.
The most important point is that the Doctors TV show listed electronic
cigarettes as their #9 health trend to look out for in 2009 and I'm
exited to see this year shaping up quite nicely already for the e
smoking community!
