Nicotine is addictive for sure and thanks for sharing your paper, thats good work. The OP I think was pointing out that it is not ONLY the nicotine in tobacco smoke that causes dependency. There are many other ingredients (harmine for example, a powerful MAOI antidepressant) that make quitting...

I agree, I mean they may see its a hard job to find unbias advisors, however I do not believe that it is that hard a job, as you say there are plenty of relevant experts without vested interests. But maybe the MHRA have their own vested interests and pick advisors that will support their own...

@CaeruleanSea on Twitter asked the guy who wrote the times article Alex Ralph (twitter @alexralph ) about the mysterious disappearing reply from MHRA. He replied that "that the MHRA sent same thing to their Letters desk. We've clarified in paper today that interests were later declared in 2013...

I have a rule, when I want to buy something, to wait till the following day unless urgent. If i still feel the urge after a nights sleep, then maybe i still get it, but usually i have forgotten by then. I have to do that as a I am a sucker for clicking on the "this is your last chance to get...

Top tips for stealth vaping For situations where stealth vaping is required, get or make some e liquid using only PG as the base. You will get the same throat hit, but with much less visible vapour. Various e liquids use varying amounts of glycerine in their mixes, the more glycerine, the more...

My brother suggested "Dog End" Flavour. Reminiscent of those heady days foraging around ashtrays for a .... that had a bit left in it. ahhhhh those were the days :vapor:

DIY e liquid seems daunting at first and you may worry about quantities etc, getting them spot on the fraction of a drop. But after you have found a mix you are happy with, it becomes easy as making a cup of coffee. Its just a learning curve, and once you have learnt the ratio of...

A good ratio for e liquid is PG 80% to VG 10-20% Although cutting VG with about 15% distilled water to make aqueous glycerine is recommended, as VG is quite thick to work with, adding 15% distilled water, gives the same consistency as PG. You can also buy aqueous glycerine, ready cut. The VG...

Another point with regards any tobacco extract in an e liquid flavor, is that the extensive list of carcinogens that are found in tobacco smoke, are based on tobacco smoke, rather than tobacco itself. Quite alot of chemical changes occur when a substance is burnt , as in a cigarette when the...

You say that the analogues have a mental hold on you, so I would suggest getting a self hypnosis mp3. I recommend Paul Mckennas quit smoking mp3 there is an Ellen clip about this on youtube..i bought his mp3 and havent had an analogue for some years, nor do i ever think about wanting one. Paul...

The thinned version of VG is called "aqueous glycerine" , as mentioned it is thinned with distilled water to make it the same consistency as PG and kinder to the atomiser in your e cig. I have seen acqueous glycerine for slae at 15% water/85% VG. Using aqueous glycerine as an extra diluent for...

That looks like a good kit, and it is a good price as well. Are they as slim as the 510, or chunkier, its not really possible to tell in a pic?

I am also looking for a new e cig and have been for a while. It is hard because there is so much different stuff out there and it is all getting quite technical with variable voltages etc. I have stuck with my trusty 510 for years now, and it has always been good. But the new carts that hold...

Most of TPA e liquid flavours i vape as singles, black cherry, cappucino, menthol, vanilla, banana cream etc. But it is quite interesting to mix them up a bit I guess, specially if you get hold of flavours such as pie crust, gives the fruit flavours a whole new life. That makes me...

Same here, I am also a bit confused, despite having been vaipng for 2 years, I have just stuck with my trusty 510. But seems I am way behind the times with my hardware, as it is hard to get replacement batteries etc now, so I need to upgrade and am facing the same confusion. I want something...
