Here is the response I posted. Please note I am not ascertaining certain
things are out of the realm of possibility,merely suggesting certain things
are more in the realm of probability.
This reads like the official why we should completely cave in to the FDA and the ANTZ bible.
Very interesting.
Point 1. Technically true. Perhaps saying hardly any compared to smoke
would be better. Saying 4 main ingredients however with flavors being plural
would be factual.
Point 2. Another technicality. Even though one can say that some elements
of e-juice are not certified or recognized as safe for inhalation none have
shown any tendency to cause harm when suspended and dispersed in a viscous
liquid as opposed to inhaled in raw form in ambient air. Even diacetyl.
Point 3.May be technically correct,modern day. It has been posted on ECF the ingredients of a nicotine inhaler that contained PG.PG was approved for use in inhalers. It may not be used now but, why would someone go through the trouble of approving it just not to use it? Asthma nebulizers do use PG. Technically different but,still your inhaling it. To a layman the difference is meaningless.
As far as increased health risks I believe the use of increasing amounts of VG
is causing some issues of a minor nature but certainly correctable by dialing back on the percentage. The we don't know is starting to lose it's luster.
Point 4.Total meaningless mumble jumble. Various studies comparing toxicity of smoke to vapor have shown smoke to be extremely toxic compared to vapor. Using the writers comparison, time smoking to actual illness, I would conjecture one
would have to heavily vape for well over 100 years And still not get lung cancer.
Point 5.Nice try.People are using more as people are opting for higher end gear
from the start completely by passing cigalikes and standard ego style batts and carto's. The problem is when you start comparing averages to averages.
Cigarettes are not,have not and, as of today still not considered a risk factor for popcorn lung. Not even for 5-6 PAD(or more) smokers. Comparing high end juice
consumption with average cigarette consumption is the problem. Compare high end juice
consumption to high end cigarette consumption.
Point 6. The old all of our Doctors and lab technicians are complete mindless
and evidently lazy automatons letting the proper diagnosis slip by because,
what the heck, COPD sounds good too. This ignores the fact that over the course of time sufficient biopsies that are normally doen to determine the type,and severity of illness to determine the proper course of treatment that someone,somewhere,somehow might have used a little personal initiative or
accidentally have stumbled on a case or two.
I am not saying that harm from vaping is totally out of the realm of possibility. My point is this FUD is all based on 'possible" unknown and unknowable
things that "might" happen not, "will happen". It's just as possible an realistic
to assume that vaping is completely safe for otherwise healthy individuals.
