DIY Nicotine Dangers

Written by admin on September 15, 2008 – 1:35 pm -

One of the things I really like about the NJOY is the easy to order and handle cartridges.  I recently discovered there are new variety packs available, and I just ordered some today to try out.  They are multi flavored.

Currently NJOY provides regular, menthol, vanilla strawberry, and apple flavors. I know they’re working on some more and I’ll be sharing my favorites as soon as they come in.

These flavors come in various nicotine levels so no one is left out.

I just came across some scary information though.  In the efforts of some to save money or just be adventurous, there are those who are attempting to create their own e-liquid. When doing this, they are adding their own nicotine.  This is something extremely hazardous!

Nicotine is not something to be handled lightly.  In fact, if handled improperly it can and will kill you. As little as a single 60mg drop can leave you 6 feet under. Effects will be felt as a nicotine overdose. The typical dizzyness, nausea, and even vomiting – and before you know it it’s too late.

Here is a list of symptoms to be aware of:

  • Vomiting and nausea, diarrhea
  • Headaches
  • Troubled Breathing
  • Wanness or Pallor (paleness)
  • Sweating
  • Heart Palpitations
  • Stomach Cramps
  • Drooling
  • Fatigue

And ultimately a severe nicotine overdose can cause death.

In the pursuit of nicotine extraction techniques, most methods are untested and can prove dangerous. The formulation of substances used with your electronic cigarette really should be left in the hands of trained chemists. Taking these experiments into your own hands can not only be hazardous for you, but for your family as well.

Be smart.  Order cartridges and don’t play with creating your own concoctions. If there is a flavor or modification you desire, please contact Njoy directly and let them know. They are extremely accomodating, and the safety to their customers is a priority.
