Vaping has been touted as a potentially less harmful alternative to smoking cigarettes. One of the main benefits of vaping is that it eliminates exposure to the thousands of harmful chemicals found in cigarette smoke, including tar and carbon monoxide.

Additionally, vaping allows people to control their nicotine intake by using e-liquids with varying nicotine concentrations. Vaping also eliminates the unpleasant odors associated with smoking and reduces secondhand smoke exposure.
