An e-cigarette, or electronic cigarette, is a device that simulates smoking by vaporizing a liquid, often called e-liquid or vape juice. This liquid usually contains nicotine, flavorings, and other chemicals. When a person inhales from the e-cigarette, the device heats the liquid, creating a vapor that can be inhaled, providing a similar experience to traditional smoking without burning tobacco.
Many people use e-cigarettes as an alternative to cigarettes in an effort to reduce their nicotine intake or quit smoking altogether. However, the safety of e-cigarettes is still being studied, and they are not without risks. Some users enjoy the variety of flavors available, which can range from fruity to dessert-like options.
