As more electronic cigarette retailers establish themselves in central Pennsylvania, more questions about the product's effectiveness are arising nationwide. Dave Norris was a pack-a-day smoker, until he tried e-cigarettes. "I tell you it's a great alternative to smoking a cigarette." Now Norris believes in e-cigs so much, he became a supplier, running Blue Door Vaping in Mechanicsburg. "Some of the big money people are saying it could become a billion dollar industry by the end of the year and growing by leaps and bounds on top of that." Dave demonstrated to me how an e-cig works. "Basically you're going to bring power to that device which is going to heat up the liquid inside and create the vapor. That vapor delivers your flavor and delivers your nicotine." The product comes in hundreds of different flavors, with varying levels of nicotine. But here's the major drawback, at least according to the Food and Drug Administration. No one knows the long term effects. That's one of the biggest reasons why the FDA hasn't approved electronic cigarettes as a smoking alternative. Dr. Jonathan Foulds at Penn State College of Medicine after initially thinking the product was a gimmick, said this: "They are continuing to be popular and at least some smokers appear to find them helpful. However, we just don't have enough information on their long-term safety and effectiveness for clinicians to recommend them." Dave Norris, on the other hand, thinks he does have reason to recommend them. "Three months after I quit smoking I went to my family doctor. His comments to me were your cholesterol is down your blood pressure is down, what are these e-cigs? Pennsylvania currently allows you to use electronic cigarettes in most places where smoking is prohibited. The FDA has given no time table as to when they may make a ruling on them. The Consumer Advocates for Smoke-Free Alternatives Association (CASAA) has made a statement on electronic cigarettes.
