Sales of electronic cigarettes, designed to replace conventional, began this week in Argentina, told local media on Thursday.
Electronic cigarettes apparently do not differ from the usual: they are a tube consisting of a battery, a steam generator and replacement cartridges, filled with flavored liquid. The tip of the cigarette is lit during the delay, when the smoker inhales the "smoke" that allows to simulate the process of smoking.
Electronic cigarettes are already sold in many countries around the world, but the World Health Organization (WHO) and the Administration of the Food and Drug Administration USA (Food and Drug Administration, FDA) believe that they, as usual, pose a serious health threat. In the United States and Australia, their sale is prohibited.
According to the Argentine company's developer Oxigen, the main difference between electronic cigarettes, which went on sale in this Latin American country, is that it, unlike banned in the U.S. counterparts, "contains no nicotine or tar, but fluid in the cartridge has aroma of tobacco, mint, strawberry or vanilla.
"It's mainly electronic steam generator", - said spokesman Sebastian Gomez (Sebastian Gomez).
He assured that the new product is absolutely harmless both to the smoker, and for third parties, passed all the necessary checks and received all necessary quality certificates.
He added that the electronic cigarette is not worth considering as a means to help quit smoking.
"This product will not help to quit smoking, but it will help to moderate consumption of cigarettes", - said Gomez.
While electronic cigarettes Argentines can buy online or order by phone, but in November they arrive in the Argentine supermarket counters and drugstores.

At the same time, Western commentators suggest that the restrictions on the sale of cigarettes to youth, which now exist, are ineffective, even in high-income countries. World Bank believes that the most effective way to distract children from smoking - increase taxes on tobacco. High prices prevent the start of smoking among some children and adolescents are encouraged to reduce consumption of those who already smoke.

But you can give the current youth of rising tobacco. Especially if the presentation is that smoking is fashionable. Of course, the influence of others play a role. What do people think the adults? Parents often reproach the modern film industry, showing smoking in films, the characters, providing a bad example. And while forgetting about their negative impact. Children tend to desire it more likely grow up. Some adopt the adults believed that smoking calms your nerves.

History of Marlboro Cigarettes

In the 1920s, Marlboro was first advertised as a premium cigarette for women, a milder version of the smokes well dressed men might puff on after dinner. But the brand never took hold, and by the 1950s concerns over the connection between smoking and cancer drove many smokers to filtered brands. Philip Morris didn't have a filtered cigarette, so it scrapped the old campaign in favor of re-launching Marlboro as the company's filtered alternative.

After deciding to introduce filters to the brand, Marlboro executives still had the brand's feminine image to deal with. As Schalch reports, it didn't help that filtered cigarettes were considered softer versions of the real thing, cigarettes for sissies.

The first Marlboro men weren't limited to cowboys. They were all sorts of rugged individuals who smoked their cigarettes while performing equally manly tasks, from fixing their cars to fishing or hunting.

Marlboro's television advertisements in the '60s reflected the idea of freedom in wide-open spaces, especially once the theme from the movie The Magnificent Seven was added to the scenes of cowboys leading their herds through dusty canyons of "Marlboro Country" or charging off to rein in a stray colt.

Part of the success of the campaign might be attributable to the fact that Marlboro forged some credibility by using real cowboys in some of the ads instead of actors just playing the part.

The image took hold with enough force that even through a ban on televised tobacco advertisements that began in 1971, the Marlboro Man survived unharmed. Instead of riding off into the sunset, the image turned up in print ads and on billboards all over the country.
