Re: e-cigss causing MORE cancer than traditional cigarettes?
So tired of everything being bad for you these days. Hell, it seems every damn thing is bad for us, cig's , food, drinks, air, might as well just do nothing, starve ourselves, and say the hell with it.

What the hell is going on with people complaining about what we consume these days! It has become so insane that we might as well starve and eat and do nothing and become mindless zombies. They tax the hell out of us for everything. So sick of it. As far as I am concerned, this damn world has become a living nightmare. Peeps can't mind their own damned business anymore, especially our governments, which are a joke!

My intent is not to defend e-cigs. There is a lot unknown

I'm only referring to the story in the OP and formaldehyde and the misconceptions about PG.

I've vaped for over 3 years and have always had worries. I wish there were more studies but there aren't. So far all the studies show no harm so I feel a bit more comfortable.

Tobacco is a known. I know my grandmother smoked until her death at 87--no cancer My father has smoke since he was 14 and he is 77 today--no cancer.

I quit tobacco for money reasons and I was tired of smelling like an ash tray.

If they end up taxing e-cigs as a tobacco product like they want to I'll go back to cigs..
 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 66544502


...because you are a mindless idiot.
If you think those chemicals are not coming back to haunt you....you are well.....a mindless idiot.

Keep up the good work.

I have more worries with actual tobacco so it's a fair trade off.

Only people this rabid about e-cigs are ex smokers who don't vape and big tobacco workers.

Rabid?....no.
I am totally cool with tards eliminating themselves from the gene pool with ingestion of man made chemicals.

Re: e-cigss causing MORE cancer than traditional cigarettes?
In my experience E-cig can cure or prevent common cold and maybe even flu.

It has been already a few months since I started to smoke e-cigs and before then I used to be a person who caught cold or flu almost every month in every winter. Now all the cold and flu are completely gone and I am disease free. I am healthier than ever.

I know nicotine kills viruses, germs and bacteria and American Indians used to use tobacco for curing cold and flu as a kind of medicine. Modern day cigarettes are made of all other unhealthy ingredients together with tobacco. On the other hand, e-cig contains quite pure nicotine form extracted from tobacco. This is I think the reason.

I tried one last summer, at the very same time my son tried it too, within 3 days we had respiratory problems that came on like flu, and turned out to be the longest bout of flu either of us EVER had, mine lasted 3 months, and it finished with a chesty + tickly cough that wouldn't shift.

We weren't sure whather it was the Ecig, but neither of us touched it after we first felt this coming on, because both of us almost subconsciously attributed it to the ecig

I suspect the cause may be shitty e-liquid. E-liquid have tons of different classes, many of which are just liquid of shit and whose smell are just as same shit smell as real shit. Mine are directly impoted from Vancouver, Canada and they use 100% vegi glicerin from the real vegitables, not chemically composited.

breathing in motor fumes is worse than e-cogs.

E-cigs seem to be a great way to stop smoking. All these anti-ecig tards...do you not want people to try and stop? ffs.

Re: e-cigss causing MORE cancer than traditional cigarettes?
I haven't had a "analog" cig in almost a week. I do believe e cigs are a great, but not completely safe alternative.
I have had some affects. No more chest congestion, I breath easier and food tastes good again. If I get cancer it will be from the pack a day for the last 17 years not the e cigs.
Also the e juice I use is made in the USA and with all natural 100% VG and 6mg nic. I also know people that vape all day for the last 3 years and as far as I know that are as healthy as can be, so I call b.s. on higher cancer from e cigs.

Guys, this is BS propaganda from the tobacco lobby. Unless they're spiking the e-liquid with toxins, its almost impossible for e-cigs to be worse.

They're scared of e-cig companies killing their profits. I'll take my e-liquid with its 3 ingredients over burning tobacco any day.

That is a recent study done. Tobacco comps hate the we Vape, because they have been loosing billions, they put out propaganda and are behind the new laws and taxes trying to be applied to vaping. They hate it. Vaping is safer than cigs, I mean Vaping, not the little e cigs from sold at gas stations those probably are bad. All these nay says just havent done real research.

Propylene glycol is used as a carrier for many intravenous medicines.

Chances are if you've been to the ER or hospitalized they have injected PG directly in to your veins.

This study has to do with formaldehyde gas created from the metals in the coils using much higher voltage than an e cig uses.

At the normal voltage NO formaldehyde was found+
 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 66544502


It's not just propylene glycol in them....but go ahead....keep trying to justify man made chemicals as acceptable over naturally produced products.

You know what's one of the biggest scams with commercial cigaretttes? How fast they burn.... If you've ever rolled your own cigs with rolling papers of your own choosing - those cigs can last twice as long as commercial cigs.... Much slower burn.... They want your $$$, they want you to have to re-purchase packs as frequently as possible...
