Vaping 08:16 - Apr 4 with 2440 views | COYBitfc | I get that it is supposed to be a better option to cigarettes, but jesus christ I do not appreciate having to walk through a plumb of smoke/vapour or whatever it's called when walking behind someone having a toke..... That's all.. | |

Vaping on 09:33 - Apr 4 with 2327 views | Harry_Palmer | Yeah this. Also its not really a better option as you are just inhaling a lungful of chemicals instead of tobacco ( and chemicals ). Just man up and stop poisoning yourself, it's really not that difficult. | | | |

there was a mention of some research on R4 yesterday. Didn't catch the detail but it can't be good for you. Absorbing all those chemicals straight into your bloodstream cannot be good. | |

Agreed, although people have said that they really make a difference in giving up. So as long as it's then easy to give up vaping, it's probably well worth it. If you're still hooked but just on a different group of poisons, it does make you wonder what the point is. It's been a cracking investment for whoever came up with the idea and got stuff patented first. | |

Or just go back to straight tobacco, can't be that bad for ye. | |

That all comes down to the 'flavours' you use. The cheaper options, tend to be produced by people with very little care for the users. Google 'Popcorn Lungs'. Factory workers in a microwave-popcorn distribution plant were inhaling various carcinogenic 'artificial flavours' & developed all stages of lung health problems. Rules were definitely tightened up in the States regarding artificial flavourings - but like most things cheaper produced, China are still selling the bad stuff. | | | |

propylene glycol, vegetable glycerine, nicotine, flavourings Thats the sum total of whats in e-liquid and even if you dont use them probably regularly ingest 2 or 3 of them on a regular basis. Nicotine is not harmful and dilutes through your body in the small amounts present. Large amounts will kill you as is toxic. Compare that to the thousand or so chemicals in cigarettes then I will stick to my vape thanks. I dont buy all the scare stories as when you look behind who funds the research more often than not they have an agenda to promote them as bad. The amount of profit the cigarette companies are losing and also tax the government are losing makes you wonder if they really have our best interests at heart!! [Post edited 4 Apr 2019 11:26]

It's linked to exposure to high levels of diacetyl (although not proven), which isn't allowed in e-cigarette liquid in the UK anyway. | |

E-cigarettes heat nicotine (extracted from tobacco), flavorings and other chemicals to create a water vapor that you inhale. Regular tobacco cigarettes contain 7,000 chemicals, many of which are toxic. While we don’t know exactly what chemicals are in e-cigarettes, there’s almost no doubt that they expose you to fewer toxic chemicals than traditional cigarettes.” | |
