Mt. Sinai & ENVIRON: study of Vaporized Glycol in Fog Machines

[AmplexorJ]

I found this study while digging through pages of health stats and figs on vaporized Glycol.... more so PG.

Seems some theatrical actors and such were concerned about the risks of using fog machines.


Quite the comprehensive study but I found it interesting.

I have read similar reports, mostly to do with opera singers and the like, those that do not smoke and wish to preserve their voices were concerned about the side effects of the fog machines.

NOW if you are a SMOKER you are already getting a good dose of it along with lots of other things. Lots of things are used to keep tobacco moist that fall into this class. For a current smoker, at least for me these concerns do not bother me much. A matter of the lessor of two evils. I am one to advocate that you should NEVER inhale anything but fresh air. One of the main reasons that I do not encourage non smokers or former smokers to pick up vaping.. hard to remember what fresh air was like (but getting there)...LOL!

Yeah as a smoker of 11 years i find the ..... er findings to be rather hopeful.

Lesser of two evils indeed.

I can definately live with the effects of PG....Literally
