The latest Celebrity e cigarette gossip!


Celebrities really love their e-smokes. Since his big night out a few months ago, hearthrob Robert Pattinson has not been seen without an electronic cigarette. He and ex-girlfriend, now current girlfriend, Kristen Stewart have been pretty famous for their tobacco puffing, but since their split he has been quite the fan of vapour.

The latest news on this front has been that fellow e-cigarette smoker, Leonardo DiCaprio has taken Pattinson under his wing, and has been something of a mentor to the Twilight star. It has been reported that it was DiCaprio himself who introduced Pattinson to e-cigs, and they have really changed smoking for him.

Pattinson’s camp, on the other hand, have denied these rumours entirely as untrue. In other news concerning Pattinson and e-cigarettes, has also shared his with Bel Ami co-star, Uma Thurman, who was glad to try it!

We are always excited to hear about the latest celebs to quit the smoke and opt for vapour cigs, so we wish the best for all of these Hollywood megastars, and are just happy that they’re staying clear of tobacco!

Celebrities are always up on current trends, and they always take an even greater notice when they involve health and wellness. For a star like Robert Pattinson who has millions of young fans, he is setting a great example choosing not to smoke cigarettes.

If your a smoker, why not follow in the foot steps of the famous and try out our incig electronic cigarette range.

We promise you wont be disappointed!

Roll up, Roll up.....I think NOT!


Many smokers believe that roll-your-own or RYO cigarettes are not as harmful as manufactured cigarettes. Many RYO smokers change to smoking roll-ups rather than stop smoking in the mistaken belief that they will smoke less tobacco and inhale fewer toxic chemicals.  
But hand-rolling tobacco is as just as harmful as the tobacco in manufactured cigarettes.  Research using roll-up cigarettes made by smokers, shows that the levels of nicotine and cancer-causing chemicals inhaled are often higher than those from bought cigarettes.  RYO cigarettes are more likely to cause mouth, throat and lung cancer as well as lung diseases such as emphysema and heart disease.

Tar yields

Tar yields for roll-ups are higher than for most manufactured brands.  Researchers asked 26 regular RYO smokers to make a number of their usual roll-ups.  The researchers then tested the RYO cigarettes and showed that over half of the hand-rolled cigarettes gave tar yields above the current maximum level of 15 mg for manufactured cigarettes.  Tar contains most of the cancer-causing chemicals and lung irritants.

Nicotine yields

Nicotine yields from hand-rolled cigarettes are often higher than for manufactured cigarettes.  Less than one in ten cigarette brands in the UK has a declared nicotine yield above 1.5mg per cigarette in laboratory tests. Over three quarters of the RYO cigarettes in the study produced a nicotine yield above this level.

Humectants in hand rolling tobacco

There are more humectants in rolling tobacco than in manufactured cigarettes.  Humectants are added to prevent the tobacco from drying out and to make it taste smoother.   Humectants yield some very toxic chemicals such as acrolein.

Lack of filters

Filters in RYO cigarettes are not always used but they remove almost a half of the tar and nicotine. However, even with filters, smokers tend to compensate if they don’t get enough nicotine by smoking more or taking deeper puffs to ‘top-up’ nicotine levels.  Filters don’t reduce the carbon monoxide.

RYO smokers have higher nicotine dependence

A study compared addiction levels of RYO smokers with smokers who use the same number of manufactured cigarettes per day.  People who smoke roll-ups are generally more addicted to nicotine and are less likely to stop smoking.  Some highly addicted smokers use roll ups because it gives them more control over the nicotine ‘dose’.  


Who smokes roll-ups?

The majority of RYO smokers in the UK are older men.    A quarter of all male smokers use rolling tobacco.  Less than one in twenty women smokers uses RYO.  A third of poorer smokers use roll-ups because rolling tobacco is cheaper.   

Higher tar - lower tax

EU regulations for tar and nicotine levels in cigarettes do not apply to rolling tobacco even though most of the RYO cigarettes are more dangerous than manufactured cigarettes. Hand-rolling tobacco is taxed and priced at a lower level – about half that of packaged cigarettes.  In countries where cigarettes are cheap or rolling tobacco is expensive, very few people use RYO cigarettes.  In the Netherlands more than half of all tobacco smoked in the country is RYO because of price differences.

Solution
Similar to manufactured cigarettes, tar and nicotine levels need to be restricted and smokers informed of the increased dangers of smoking without a filter.   Higher tax on cigarettes and rolling tobacco would encourage more smokers to quit or try INCIG electronic cigarettes.

The Future's Bright, the Future 'is' INCIG


There’s no getting around it; the future of smoking is WITHOUT a doubt electronic. It is predicted that within a few short years, more people will be smoking e-cigarettes in favour of traditional smokes, as tobacco continues to be replaced. Wouldn’t you choose the healthier of the two options, if the sensation was the same? 
Tobacco has been problematic from the beginning of its rampant use. Commercially produced cigarettes saw the market skyrocket.
The war on tobacco has been going on for a long time now, especially when it comes to the marketing geared towards youth. Cigarette companies have long targeted teenagers and even children, utilizing every possible attempt to make cigarette smoking seem attractive, glamorous, cool, and macho. Thankfully, the majority of this marketing has been reduced to an extreme minimum, and children and teenagers are more aware than any previous generation how terrible cigarettes are.
Electronic cigarettes are much more in tune with the way modern people are living. Most people do not have the time to sit back and smoke cigarettes lazily, dealing with ash trays and the litter that follows.

Cigarettes also pose the problem of not being accepted everywhere, and it can be quite a burden to be constantly searching for a place to smoke or where you feel comfortable smoking without creating a burden on others. With less and less people smoking, most do not want to inhale second hand smoke!

The majority of people are also constantly pressed for time and do not have any to waste. All of these small reasons really begin to add up, and it really is hard to have to set aside so much time and exert so much energy planning just to accommodate a smoking habit!

E-smokes are not just easier to use because they are smoke- and mess-free, but also because of the many options you get with e-cig accessories, you can tailor your vaping to fit your life! E-cigarette refills are also much simpler. When you vape, you simply vape.

Second hand smoke, or any smoke for that matter, lighters, ash, butts, and feeling self conscious all the get thrown out the window (without littering) because they simply become a thing of the past.

Simply put, e-cigarettes are the future of smoking because people want more simplicity to focus on the things that really matter. People (smokers) want the same freedom as non-smokers, without the trouble of offending others.

The future lies in our hands, and a future that involves cleaner, healthier, more conscious options is a whole lot brighter than the doom that lies is tobacco. With more people opting for vapour cigarettes over traditional, it’s pretty safe to say we are headed in that direction.

Smoke Less? - use INCIG e-cigarettes

One of best things about INCIG electronic cigarettes is that they are reusable, thus very environmentally friendly and a good way to enjoy nicotine. They are definitely the less consuming option.

Unlike cigarettes, which cause harm to those who use them, and those exposed to the second hand smoke, INCIG e-cigs go above and beyond to remain safe for humans and the planet.

While our electronic cigarette cartomisers are essentially made to be thrown away after use, they are still more responsible of a product. Just one of our cartomiser refill is equivalent to approx 30 traditional cigarettes, making them a lot less wasteful.

So even if you smoke a pack of 20 a day, you are going to take that down to less than one e-cig refill every two days, pretty impressive eh?

Also to consider, they are much less likely to be discarded as irresponsibly as typical cigarettes by users just throwing them on the floor after use as is often the case with cigarette butts.

INCIG e-cigs are definitely better for your health, the environment, and better value for money as the price per cigarette is an amazing 6p per equivalent cigarette. That means that 20 electronic cigarettes is £1.20. We will leave you to do the maths.

So because each of our electronic cigarette refill cartomisers is equal to around one 30 cigarettes, it means that you will undoubtedly have lots of spare cash at your disposal.

There are other ways in which INCIG e-cigs can positively influence your cash flow. There will be no need to continually purchase lighters. Your surroundings will be free from smelly smoke thus you will no longer need to buy ‘additional’ cleansing products which disguise the smell of the traditional cigarette, such as fragrances, air refreshers, air filters, chewing gum, teeth whiteners……do we need to go on?!

We aren’t saying you won’t use any of those things again once you get rid of the tobacco cigarettes for INCIG e-cigs, but we will bet that you wont need to buy as many and use them less, ultimately saving you more in the long run.

It is clear in our society today that people are now more conscious of the products they purchase. If you have a choice, are you more likely to choose the more responsible route?

People are more conscious of their health then ever before, the environment, and how much they pay for products than ever before.

So when choosing ‘a way’ to smoke, e-cigarettes are the ‘ONLY’ way to go.

INCIG e-cigs takes the fright out of Halloween

It’s always a good time to choose e-cigarettes over a traditional smoke, and hey, Halloween is nearly upon us, and it’s as good a time as any! While Halloween is on the brain, here are 5 good reasons why the scariest night of the year should not involve tobacco smoke!

1. Halloween is especially fun for the children, and it’s never appropriate to smoke cigarettes around them. Exposing them to smoke can be totally avoided, whether you just stop yourself from smoking in their presence, or you do the intelligent thing and use electronic cigarettes. This way, when you’re trick or treating, or handing out sweets to the hordes of revellers, you don’t put anyone in uncomfortable situations, and you can have your cake and eat it too!
2. If you are to indulge on some forbidden vice on Halloween let it be sweets, and not smoke, if you are to choose between them. INCIG e cigarettes are much gentler on the system, no matter what time of year anyway.

3. Halloween parties are fun, but smokers in large social gatherings usually get sent out to pasture. Stay indoors and electric smoke, don’t miss any of the party, and infuriate no one with smoke.
4. The clocks have just gone back and some places in the UK are already experiencing cold weather. Getting on all your winter warmers up to smoke outside is such a ‘drag’. Again, e-cigs are perfectly fine indoors, and even if Halloween is just another night of the week for you and don’t even intend on handing out treats, you won’t have to brave cold.
5. Did you know that Halloween’s original roots can be traced back to the Pagan and Druid times of the Celtic world? It was technically their “New Year” so in that vain, start your year right, with a purposeful resolution to quit smoking, and use INCIG e cigarettes so you can still have the pleasure, none of the pain, and be free from the smoke!

Stoptober 2012 kicked-off on Monday 1st October and runs for 28 days – and INCIG wants to play a pivotal role in helping you to kick the habit.
We have all seen the blatant warnings signs thrown across cigarettes packets! So more than ever, it serves as a reminder that opting for alternative cigarettes is a lot safer.
In Britain 21% of adults smoke cigarettes. In Northern Ireland 24% of adults smoke. It remains the UK’s single greatest cause of preventable illness and early death, with an estimated 102,000 people dying in 2009 from smoking related diseases including cancers.
Backing the Stoptober campaign the Governments most senior advisors, Chief Medical Officer Professor Dame Sally Davies said in a press release “smoking is still the biggest cause of premature death in England, taking more than 100,000 lives in the UK every year.
"This is the first time that we have launched a mass quit attempt like Stoptober. I would encourage people who want to quit to get involved."
Thanks to electronic cigarettes, tobacco numbers are dramatically on the decline. As e cigs take away the toxic smoke, the tobacco, and the four thousand deadly chemicals, you have left a product void of all the harmful parts of cigarettes.
Without tobacco smoke, there is no chance of tar being left as a residual. With water vapour, there is none of the carbon monoxide that comes from burning particles. In fact, with e-cigs, nothing is burned whatsoever! It is an entirely electronic device!
If you are a smoker, do you regularly think, really think, about your habit and it’s dangers?
Tobacco has been contributed to many thousands of deaths, and somewhere in the vicinity of 100 million during the 20th century. It’s not speculation, it’s 100% proven that smoking kills.
I know if I was faced with the constant reminder, on a cigarette pack alone, I would be highly annoyed and would probably quit from being constantly reminded. Think you’ll miss the flavour?
INCIG offers a wide range of great e-cig flavours, a tobacco flavour, as well as menthol and three other delicious varieties.
So if you are a cigarette smoker, don’t you think it’s time to follow the rest of the countries smokers and help to make the Stoptober as successful as it can be and  enjoying nicotine the e cig way?
Wouldn’t you feel better knowing you are no longer consuming something deadly and dangerous?
