2 Docs Talk: The podcast about healthcare, the science of medicine and everything in between.

Episode 46: E-Cigs


Listen Later

These days you can buy e-Books  for your e-Reader and participate in e-Commerce. You can send your friends Evites, e-file your taxes, and meet the love of your life on eHarmony. 

So it's really no surpise that e-Cigarettes have become as popular as they are. Hats off to whoever named them, since they are actually physical items that you can hold in your hands, unlike most e-products.

The question, of course, is if there are any health advantages to e-Cigarettes. Do they really help you stop smoking?

And, do they create their own set of health problems? 

That's what we're talking about this week.
