Default Just announced!! Two years+ of human trials

Sorry did not mean to get your hopes up. Something that the health organizations, that have been demonizing vaping, seem to miss, e-cigarettes have been in wide use for over two years. How long has this forum been around? Have there been any reports on here with regards to serious health concerns(apart from some minor nicotine overdoses and PG alergic reactions)?
People!! This product is safer than conventional cigarettes. The only question that remains is what are the super long term effects and are they as bad as the long term effects of smoking conventionals?
I truly believe they are not.
Kurt

How many people suffer serious health issues from smoking analogs for two years?

Coughing, shortness of breath. A couple of heath issues that occur within the first two years of using conventionals.

BTW, there are over 3000 members in this forum. That is a large sample group. The sample groups that were pooled before the elction only numbered 1000, and those groups acurately called the election within 3-4%.

I'm sure we're all curious about what these things are doing to us. I'd be very interested to hear completely honest testimony from long term e-smokers as to the effects they've noticed on their health from vaping exclusively.

Wew... I had a little anxiety there for a minute and thought... how did THIS slip by me? I am usually on the ball! Smoke smoke the e-cig... calm down.

Taley - you are so right! This forum is an excellent example of an unscientific trial and if someone could figure out a way to analyze the data, I am absolutely positive it WILL have positive results.

We cannot definitively say that the e-cig is safe.... but no-one has proven it to be otherwise. It will be interesting to see what happens over the next two years... once more of us have been exclusively e-cig for a longer period of time.

I've been a month free too... and I can honestly say I will never go back either.

Went to the doctor today... he was thrilled and wants one for a smoker family member. Asked all of the right questions... hopefully I answered them correctly... here... wrote about it on RTV What My Doc Said...

Why do we have nobody here who's been vaping longer than a year? What's happened to them ...

I just think that scientists (I am one you see) will discount such data as anecdotal and useless. If we all had been monitored along the way and given thorough medicals, plus remember analogs were thought to be ok for many years. They even gave them out to soldiers in the war to provide courage.

Probably more worthwhile would be to start a research fund
