E Cigs and COPD

A successful alternative to the addicted tobacco smoker with COPD (Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease) is the Electronic Cigarette commonly knows as the E Cig. The E cig very closely resembles a tobacco cigarette without the tar, toxins, carbon monoxide and chemicals and therefore will not do further lung damage.
Although COPD is not curable and a highly addicted tobacco smoker would be well advised to refrain from smoking, which of course is so easy to say, but nearly impossible to do, but with E Cigs it is now possible. The water vapor from the E Cigs has been compared to steam therapy but needs further research to verify this,
But by all accounts a person suffering from Pulmonary diseases would be far better off with an Electronic Cigarette than a toxic tobacco cigarette if there had to be a choice.
