Here is an article from 2016, listing vaping of flavored e-cigs as one cause of a deadly disease called by the harmless sounding name of popcorn lung. The article says as more info comes in, action may be needed. That may be where we are today. Diacetyl is the worst ingredient in fake butter and fruit flavorings that have caused death and disability in food factory workers for years. it is used in vaping. By the way, inhaling ANY oil over time into the lungs can cause pneumonitis, pneumonia, and death. -------------------------------------- from the article: [link to www.medicalnewstoday.com (secure)] Last updated Tue 13 March 2018 By Jennifer Huizen | Reviewed by Judith Marcin, MD 0.What is popcorn lung?| 0.Symptoms| 0.Causes| 0.E-cigarette use| 0.Diagnosis| 0.Prevention| Popcorn lung is a rare condition that causes airway scarring due to inflammation and eventually lung damage. While treatments exist to limit and manage symptoms, currently there is no cure for popcorn lung, and it is considered life-threatening. Popcorn lung gets its name from a chemical called diacetyl, which was once commonly used to give food products, such as popcorn, a rich, buttery flavor. In fact, the condition was first identified among popcorn factory workers who inhaled the chemical in the workplace. Popcorn lung is also known as obliterative bronchiolitis, bronchiolitis obliterans, or constrictive bronchiolitis. Popcorn lung can be mistaken for a different condition called bronchiolitis obliterans organizing pneumonia (BOOP) The chemicals found in e-cigarette liquid, known as "e-juice," may be a potential cause of popcorn lung. According to the American Lung Association, using electronic cigarettes or vaping, particularly the flavored varieties, can cause popcorn lung. Once the dangers associated with diacetyl were discovered in the early 2000s, the majority of popcorn producers stopped using the chemical. However, e-cigarette vapor has been proven to contain diacetyl. A 2015 study of flavored e-cigarettes found that 39 out of 51 tested brands contained diacetyl. The same study concluded that most of these brands also contained the toxic chemicals acetoin and 2,3 pentanedione. Manufacturers add diacetyl to the "e-juice" that is vaporized by e-cigarettes, most commonly to the strongly-flavored varieties. Diacetyl occurs in a wide range of different flavored e-cigarette products, ranging from vanilla to caramel and coconut. E-cigarettes only came under the control of the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) in 2016. Changes to regulations may be required in the coming years as more research is carried out well i knew it wouldnt take long for the Big Tobacco shills to show up truth hurts,doesn't it? attack the person, not the facts - the liberal way and yet here you sit, cherry picking those "facts" you are touting! Lets continue reading the facts from your own article, shall we? Chemical damage to the lung tissues can cause popcorn lung, as can a few other factors. Although some hereditary conditions can cause popcorn lung, it is not considered an inheritable disorder. Breathing in harmful chemicals, particles, or toxins can lead to popcorn lung. Food-flavoring fumes produced during the manufacture of candies, potato chips, popcorn, and dairy products, are major culprits. Other examples include: fumes from industrial or cleaning chemicals, such as ammonia or chlorine nitrous oxide, also known as laughing gas metallic fumes from construction activities, such as welding industrial air particles, such as complex dust Other factors that have been shown to cause or increase the likelihood of developing popcorn lung include: certain viral or bacterial respiratory infections having had a transplant immune conditions, such as rheumatoid arthritis and hypersensitivity pneumonitis certain drugs, such as penicillamine, 5-fluorouracil, and gold Transplant surgeries may cause a condition called graft-versus-host disease, which occurs when the body rejects organ transplantation, particularly after lung, bone marrow, or stem cell transplants. This reaction can also lead to popcorn lung. SO, where is the call to BAN all of these evil things? My daughters FIL died from popcorn lung. He never smoked, never vaped, never worked in the chemical field, construction...none of those bad, bad, evil things and yet he got it and DIED. Why don't we just ban popcorn lung....better yet, lets ban DEATH! Makes about as much sense as this bullshit!

It's incredible that people don't realize those are the ones doing it. The shitty homemade thc cartridges with chemical flavorings and other agents to keep the oil from thickening etc. In Washington State, I'd wager to bet people go through about 500,000 THC vape cartridges per day and NOT A SINGLE PROBLEM. It's called regulation. The cannabis industry is being led to its death by the pharma, tobacco, and alcohol lobbies who want it to remain illegal and unregulated so that no real good can ever come of it nationally. Again, in the states where cannabis is legal, thousands, tens of thousands, maybe millions of THC vape cartridges are used every day (talking Cali, WA, OR, etc.) and NOT A SINGLE PROBLEM.

Quoting: Anonymous Coward 76858313 If not, then we just know that this is pressure from buddies in the tobacco industry. NICE. TRUMP 2020 Willam Barr 2024 |
